Springhill.

Camp. Is. Amazing.
I love this place. Absolutely love it. I've been here for almost three weeks and the time has flown by. I don't want the summer to go by this fast! The first two weeks was training. I was thrust into a community of 40 other TST counselors, and we became a family very quickly. Their passion and desire to run after Jesus has impacted my walk with Christ. I love each and every one of them and I am so glad to call them a part of my TST family. We got our first set of campers on Sunday, and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. I knew that I was going to love having campers, but I didn't know I was going to love them this much. I feel so priviledged that God has entrusted these 13 girls into my cabin. I ask for your prayers for these girls and for all the campers at Springhill. That's all I have time for...I'm going to go on the waterslide, skatepark and enjoy a concert with Adam Cappa..(He's going on tour with jeremy camp and franscesca battisteli in the fall.) We got to talk with him last night backstage, while waiting to do the drama..and he's so legit! I've having the best time here. God is so good!

In His love,
Hayley Garr

:::Fifty Shades of Crap:::

Warning: What I am about to say will probably offend a lot of people... But I am not here to please the world, but to please Christ.  There is a huge phenomenon sweeping our nation right now. It is filling countless people's minds with images that cannot be erased. The phenomenon is called Fifty Shades of Grey.  As a person that works with youth, I decided to check out the book after hearing many of my students and fellow friends talk about the book. As a youth worker, it is my responsibility to know what this generation of students are putting into their minds. So, I picked up the book and started reading. I was absolutely appalled. What I found were pages filled with inappropriate images of lust, bondage, and manipulation. Needless to say, I never finished reading the book. I respect my future husband too much to continue reading this book. I respect myself too much to continue reading this book. I respect Christ too much to continue reading this book. Here's

"Life becomes easier when you learn to accept an apology you never got."

For those of you that listen to the Christian radio stations, you'll hear a common theme among some of the top songs. Forgiveness---by Matthew West. Losing---by Tenth Avenue North. Forgiveness---by TobyMac. I don't think that it's a coincidence. This isn't the typical post about how Christ has forgiven your sins---however that is the most important  truth that you'll ever hear in your life. How Christ lived a perfect life, so that you wouldn't have to. How Christ died a painful death, so that you wouldn't have to. How Christ rose from the grave, and in doing so---set you free from all sin, all pain, all hurt, and all shame. If you haven't accepted the truth of Christ's forgiveness over your sin, then the rest of this blog may seem stupid . Irrelevant . Unbelievable . Why forgive others if you haven't realized how much you  need forgiveness. So, this blog is for those that believe that Christ has forgiven them .This blog is for those that have bee

Turkey Hill Ranch Bible Camp?

I applied to work at Turkey Hill Ranch Bible Camp in the middle of March. I really wanted to grow in a "different" way this summer...at least different then just being "taught" at camp. So, I applied and was accepted to be on summer staff. I was super excited, but as the year ended and summer started, I decided that I wanted to go to Younglife Camp. Younglife camp is so fun; with amazing food, crazy activities, an entire surprise and great speakers. I wanted to go since it would be my last time as a camper, so I decided to let the people at Turkey Hill know that I wouldn't be coming as a staffer, because I had other things to do this summer. So, that's what I did. Thru the months of summer, I tried to recruit people for younglife camp (you have to have three signed up, if you're going to go a second time) and tried to raise money to go. I was getting to the point where I was inviting literally everyone on facebook, and was going to spend 600+ dollars of
