high school
I am starting high school in the fall and I am excited. However, I'm not sure if I should join school activities because I am aware that some high
schoolers do swear alot, and may say dirty things. I would like to join some stuff, but God says to shield ourselves from all evil. How do you guys
handle it at work or whereever you're exposed to things like this (which is really everywhere)? Do you think I should avoid extracurriculars?

We are in this world, but not of it. In other words, we live our Christian life where we are.
We can not force others to accept Christ, nor to live a Christian life, but we can possib ly influence others
by our lifestyle. Offensive language should not be allowed on campus.
Being a "goody-two shoes" will not impress others if we keep calling them down when they use foul language,
but you can try and stay away from a good deal of it.
You should not be penalized by having to stay out of activities because of others.
Living is a balancing act for each of us.
When I worked, I was exposed to a lot of things with which I disagreed, but I couold not quit working!
I hope you have a great, productive year.
