When I was a Christian teen in High School I started a Christian Bible Study Club. We met at lunch and prayed together. That was almost 30 years ago, and last I heard there is still a Christian group meeting at that school.

I think Christians should stick to shining their "light" as you call itwhen they are at church. Rubbing your religion in peoples faces and shoving it down their throats is really annoying. People dont like "holier than thou" attitudes and thats what Christians have. THey think they are right and we are wrong and they want to shine their "light" to save us all. But really, they just end up seeming a little brainwashed and cookoo. No offense, but I was raised Christian and I am now a flag waving atheist. More power to you for wanting to shine your "light and all, but keep it out of my face.

Be a good person, excel, don't lie, don't judge, and be honest.

If you want people to come to Christ through you, be a good person first and if they ask questions about why you are so good, THEN discuss your faith.

Of course, you may find some of the brightest lights aren't Christian, but that's life.

A great thing that you can do at school is start a Christian Club if it is allowed. You can also be a better citizen and volunteer. You would be helping your community.

Simply by showing Christ's love to everyone you meet, and in everything you do. Keep a smile on your face and be friendly to all. Always reach in and lend a hand to anyone who needs help, and expect nothing in return. Treat everyone as you would want them to treat you, as you know God wants you to treat them --- no matter whether they treat you that way or not. There's no reason to wear your religion on your sleeve and be syrupy about it. Don''t stamp it on your forehead, but keep "WWJD" in the back of your mind.

Have a nice day sweetie, and God Bless you and yours.

(P.S. -- It's the holier than thou, in your face bible thumpers that give true God loving Christians a bad name.)

Be open about your faith! That is the biggest thing. When kids see that you are happy tell them way... Invite others to go to youth group with you, encouage others to make good choices, just share. God Bless

it's hard, but do-able.

I think the best way would be to be "conservative": be an example of how Christians ought to live and you can give glory to God, but you don't neccessarily have to pray publically if you don't want to.

*some of the best sermons can be preached without actually quoting

Anyone who is truly ethical and moral doesn't claim they are. They keep their religion to themselves and live it.

The godbots who want to spew religion in public are proving that faith is filth and religion is a sewer.
