    As teenagers, living a life modeled by Christian values is an extreme challenge, but not impossible. We can live by our Christian values with the actions we choose to do. We can be compassionate of others by maybe hanging out with someone who you know isn’t exactly “popular”. And overall to remember that Jesus Christ our Savior died on the cross for our sins and rose on the third day.

    A young person actively lives out Christian values in life and in relationships today by always going to church with their family. I recently started going to church with my mom every Sunday now. Also, in a relationships if you really love the person and you want to last long you should take he/her to church to let that person know that you want to put God in that relationship and wanna be serious, especially for young people.

    Recently, young people have actively been expressing new ways to live out Christian values in life and relationships. For example, rather then being rude and impolite, a Christian individual is humble towards others. Regardless the problem, Christian’s always turn back to God as time passes. Christian’s reach out for God and try to talk to Him as frequently as possible. They also try to always spread His Word to others in everything they do.

    People should live their lives in the fruit of the spirit. The fruit of the spirit is essential in relationships. It will make a relationship flourish into something greater. Relationships are important, but its more important to for Christ. If God is telling you to leave the one you love, it probably means shes not the one for you. God chooses a mate that will bring you closer to Christ. If she weakens your relationship with God, then shes not the one you should be with. God chooses who you should be with right when you’re born. Make sure that when you’re dating a person, have the intention of marrying them, because if you don’t then you’re just keeping him/her from being with the one they are destined to be with. -Keoni Warrington

    A young person actively lives out Christian Values in life and in relationships today because we spread the word about Christ, and say how wonderful, loving and caring He is. Christ is always there no matter what situation your in, He is always there to make you feel better and confident. He sacrificed so much for us, so the least we can do is spread the word about Christ, and tell everyone that He is real and that He is here to comfort us in times of need. There is no better or perfect person in the world than God Himself.

    I think young people live a life & show Christian values that are important to them. Like be kind to one another in relation ships. They could also can highly respect and agree with there religion and follow the rules they think is most important to there life. Also to reflect Christian values. They can set a good example for people watching them. To look neat but not flashing out expensive things to get peoples attention and to make others jealous. I think that is how a young person actively lives out Christian values in life and in relationships today.

    In today’s world, young people are faced with many challenges but they also have many opportunities to live out Christian values. Everyone’s challenges are different but we all have to love each other and help each other. Those who may seem like their lives are perfect may not actually be happy and sometimes all they need is for one of us to make them happy and love them. This is how I feel young people live out Christian values in today’s society.

    Today, a young person like me, actively lives out Christian values in his/her life by keeping God in his/her heart at all times. As a young person, knowing that God is always watching over you persuades you to always do the right thing to make him proud. One Christian value that many young people have is aloha. I, for one, love my family, friends, and God more than anything in the world. Also, in relationships, you have the value, aloha because it normally consists of two people loving each other.

    In my eyes, I think the one value that we as young people live out in our lives is Aloha meaning love. Not necessarily love as in boyfriend or girlfriend but love as in any relationship you have with someone else. An example of how I live the value aloha is showing love to my family, friends, and peers. I show love to my family, friends, and peers by supporting them with whatever they may choose in life, also by just loving them and being thankful I can go to them for help whenever I need to. The one person that I will always love is God. He has shown me love throughout my life, by supporting me throughout my sacraments and being there when no one else was. He hears and answers my prayers, and I show love to him back by going to church to learn about him and spreading his word to others who might be in need of his help.

    As a Christian student my age, there are different ways you can practice your faith. You can go to church, and you can listen to what the father has to say and apply it to your life. You should pray before every meal to give thanks. You should pray when you wake up and go to sleep to give thanks and ask for forgiveness. You can practice Christen values by being kind to everyone and not committing sins. Just enjoy your life and thank God.

    In my opinion, a young person actively lives out christian values in life and in relationships today in a few ways. One way would be just to pray daily and read the scriptures, and go to church. A more “accepted” way for this generation would be to be kind and generous, and when you’re in a relationship to make sure its a healthy relationship and one of respect for moral values. A young person can live out values through example by being the best person they can be and never forgetting that through God anything is possible I, myself, try to live by christian values but often times find it challenging, but by doing even small acts of kindness daily, I know it makes a difference to myself and to my Heavenly Father.

    I feel that in order for a person to live out Christian values actively in life/relationships they need to be in the Word every day with God. Not reading the bible just to read it, but to actually meditate on what is written and have His scriptures embedded in you heart and mind. Upon opening the bible daily, prayer is also an important focal point in an effective Christian walk with Christ. I think talking to God is a privilege. He might not answer our prayers in the way we might hope for Him to, but He makes everything work out for the good. Sometime I pray for God to ask Him for things or if I’m in trouble and I need His help immediately. But I should talk with Him anytime because He loves listening to His children that He values. I think that by doing those two major things (eating spiritually and prayer) we will have a great connection with God and He will be able to guide us throughout the day and help us make wise choices. By having Him in our hearts and our minds, we will reflect what Christ has done, and be a friend to everyone and being a shinning light for Him.

    Someways you can display religious christian values are kindness, self-control, responsibility, honestly, love, respect, helping, caring and persistence (as in showing and acting the fruits of God).

    Aloha e kumu monica,

    So the question ask me to explain how a young person actively lives out Christian values in life and in relationships today? I think people my age explain their Christian values by doing little simple things like praying to god before we eat lunch and just ask him to bless the food and thank you for another wonderful day that he provided for us. Another Christian value is going to church on Sundays and praying to god for everything and telling him that we are sorry for whatever it was that was bad that we did during the week. one more thing is just knowing that god is always watching you so before we do something that we know isn’t right we think to our self and say what would Jesus do.

    Mahalo!

    You can have a relationship with many people and things. In this case it is people. It can be with your friends, family, boyfriends or girlfriends, husband and wife, ect. For a young person the first three are what comes to mind. When it comes to friends, you may have good or bad relationship. They can either pressure you, or strengthen you. Same for family. Sometimes teens are treated horribly by parents. But some are showed with love and support. For boyfriends or girlfriends, you can either have a healthy or unhealthy relationship. It really depends on your beliefs to direct you to the type of relationship good or bad. And you always need to have God with you.

    In this day and age, it is getting harder and harder for young people to follow the word of God. But everyday we still try. Some ways we actively live out christian values is by praying. We pray everyday to allow God to be apart of our daily lives. We also help others in need, and help to make the peace. Also, by teaching other’s of the word of god, we are spreading Christianity. I think that as a young person myself it is hard to follow God’s word, but I will keep on trying everyday.

    In today’s society I think even with all the sinning, Christian values are still incorporated into everyone’s life. An example would be to love god. There are many young Christians around the world who devote mass time to God; praying to him, worshiping him, thanking him, or spreading the word about him. A way for us teenagers to show we love god could be to attend church every Sunday to listen to the word of god and to worship him, or read our bible every night before we go to sleep, or pray or even just do nothing because Sunday is supposed to be the day of rest. Another value that young people could express their Christian values is by forgiving those who have done wrong onto themselves or others. In the bible we see that forgiveness is a key thing.
    If we have an enemy or a person who is not very fond of us, we will love them unconditionally. In a way, they say we can “kill ‘em with kindness”. We need to love our enemies and pray for them. If someone was to attack us, we shall not attack back, but instead go tell a teacher or guardian for another way to resolve the issue.
    During this time, there are many young couples and marriages. I feel it is very important to keep the fidelity we have for our designated spouse. We shall not be having sex or affairs with others.

    A young Christian may live their lives today by showing love towards everyone. Even if that person is not liked by many people we can show that we are Christian by showing God’s love for us. Another thing that we young people can do is have daily devotionals before we start our day. We can share them with our friends and reflect on what God may be trying to tell us. Young Christians may even start a bible study or just a Christian group at their school.

    You can see people living out their Christian values by passing a smile onto their friends or maybe even people they don’t know. Many teens are involved in sports today, and they show sportsmanship by telling their opponent ‘Good job’ or ‘Good luck’. Other people today, pray with their family in the morning, at night, before they go to bed, and even before every meal. They do this to thank God for all the many blessings he has provided for us. Churches also have Sunday school for kids to get them involved in activities with other kids and teach them about everything Jesus has sacrificed for us.

    In our present time, a young person actively lives out Christian values in life and in relationships today by constructing various study groups. For example, teens are involved in youth classes or bible study classes throughout the week to strengthen their relationship with Christ. Also, in school, some students encourage others with scriptures from the Bible to just help them get through their day and to get a scripture in their head. Young people today also try to live out their life so that others could see Christ in and through them, which include using the talents God has blessed us with or by praying with our friends and family.

    How a young person lives out Christian Values in life and in relationship today would be to glorify God … that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God (Romans 12:2). And to show the fruits of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance (Galatians 5:22-23). And overall to remember that Jesus Christ our savior died on the cross for our sins and rose on the third day.

    A young christian may live there life by showing how much he/she respects and believes in our Lord. He/She might frequently show respect, duty and mostly may participate frequently in bible studies and lessons on the old testament and the new testament. They may also show Containment and Thankfulness between there everyday daily lives. And they may also show there faith in God by praying and talking to him everyday no matter what the situation is. Over time he/she may also make more wise choices instead of wrong choices.

    Thank You,

    A young person actively lives out Christian values in life and in relationships today by joining teen groups, bible study groups, teen devotion groups, etc. to help them come closer to God. A young person may learn a lot from these groups and apply the things they learned to their life. Some things may be bad but most should be GOOD.. I think many young people now days do not reach out to God as much as they should but sooner or later they will realize that God will always be there for them…

We can be compassionate of others by maybe hanging out with someone who you know isn’t exactly “popular”. You could be helpful when others ask you for help on their homework. You could just be a nice person; someone who people wouldn’t mind hanging around. If you are honest, others can find you trustworthy. But most importantly, we can be forgiving. If a friend or even a random classmate somehow offends you, just forgiving them is the best way to live a Christ like life, because He was forgiving, and He forgave and still forgives us for all our sins.

    Young people can actively live out the Bee Attitudes. Those include to be wise, strong, glad, merciful, content, courteous, faithful, kind, thankful, and more. By remembering to do these things, we can be better Christians. We also should practice these things in the relationships we have. By doing those things, we can build strong relationships. God will be happy with us when we live in the way He wants us to. Also, we can be examples to others by living these values in our daily lives. Hopefully, they will follow your example and be better Christians.

    A young person actively lives out Christian values in life by having faith in God, respecting others, being honest, having self control when it might be hard, and showing kindness to others. It can also be shown in relationships by respecting and forgiving each other, being kind and thankful, and also being patient with one another.
