Blank Stares

Tonight I hosted and led my 8th grade girls small group with little success. OK, that's an understatement. The girls are great, they had fun eating, destroying my home and making themselves more than comfortable, but the problem lies when we actually get to the Bible. Blank stares. That's all I got. Blank stares. It seriously felt like pulling teeth to get anything out of them. Half way through I did not even know where I was going anymore. Whatever train of thought I had writing the lesson went out the window as I got stared down by all those beady eyes looking down on me.

Better luck next week?
