‘During This Time Of Total Eclipse, What’s Blocking The Son In Your Life?’ – Op-Ed By Chet Skatington, Youth Pastor

Hey Fam, it’s me, Chet. We’re entering a season of total solar eclipse — a time when the moon gets in the way of the sun and blocks its warm, healing rays from hitting the Earth. During this short celestial event, we will get a small taste of what life would be like if the Sun didn’t exist.

It would be dark. Just like Findlay Ohio during the moment of eclipse totality.

But have you ever thought about what life would be like if the SON didn’t exist?

I daresay it would be even darker.

We may not see the Sun being blocked by the moon very often, but how many times do we allow sin to block the healing warmth of the SON from our hearts?

That’s right — for many of us, our hearts have been living under a total eclipse for far too long. A spiritual total eclipse. Of the heart. Too often, we allow sins like lust, drugs, or skipping out on our Wednesday Night TeenYeet Connection Groups to block the influence of the Son of God. That’s wrong, fam.

During this year’s eclipse, let us reflect on the things in our lives that are blocking out the Son. Let us remove those sins that so easily beset us and allow his warmth to shine on our hearts once again. It all starts with faithfully attending this week’s Wednesday Night TeenYeet Connection Group. Hope to see you there. We’ll have Doritos.

When guns are finally banned in the coming utopia, you may still need to defend yourself on the rare occasion.
