ISAIAH 61:1-3

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has annointed and qualified me to preach the Gospel of good tidings to the meek, the poor, and afflicted; He has sent me to bind up and heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to all [physical and spirtual] captives and the opening of the prison and the eyes to those who are bound. To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord [the year of His favor] and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, to grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion- to give them an ornmament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment (expressive) of praise instead of heavy, burdened, and failing spirit-that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong and magnificent, distinquished for uprightness, justice and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.

Trista Carr Ministries is excited to announce the upcoming adventure of dare to be DIFFERENT Conference. This is an excellent opportunity to bring young people to come and be transformed by the power of God. Trista's desire is to travel worldwide, holding these conferences. This conference is a two day intense time worshipping and learning about God. At the conference there is anointed praise and worship, fun filled drama that tells a story, as well as powerful and challenging teaching.
Recent surveys show that the United States has the highest teenage pregnancy rate and that every year it is estimated that 750,000 teens will become pregnant. More than 2/3 of teens that have babies will not graduate high school. Studies show that 19 million new STD infections occur every year, and more than 50% of these cases are young people ages 15-24. Sexting had become a new thing these recent years and statistics report that 20% of teens have posted nude or semi nude pictures/videos, as well as, 39% of teenagers have sent It received a sexually seductive text. Alcohol kills 6 1/2 times more times than all other illicit drugs combined, and 20% of 8th graders have reported using marijuana. Studies show that some illicit drugs use is on the decrease, however abuse of prescription drugs is at an all time high. Teen suicide is the 3rd leading death in 15-24 year olds, and the 4th leading death in 10-14 year olds. It is reported that every hour and
forty five minutes, a young people commits suicide, resulting in an average of 5000 teenagers dying each year.
Today, we are facing a crisis that needs immediate attention. It is time to fight for our young people. The enemy is attacking our young people and our desire and goal is to see the dare to be DIFFERENT Conference be used to teach and equip them for battle.
We pray that as you have read this blog, you will see and feel the passion that we have for our young people. We pray that you would help us embark on thus adventure by bringing young people to a dare to be DIFFERENT Conference, or schedule a Conference at your church.
