When the sojourners in biblical times made their way to the temple in Jerusalem they traveled upward. What does that mean for our youth today? As they make their way to places where the atmosphere is different and the expectations are godly, what kind of decisions need to be made?

• Taking the high road will force youth to forego popularity for solidarity with Jesus Christ.
• Reaching for the stars will call youth to see beyond their current perspective.
• Elevating their standards will challenge youth to forfeit today's latest and greatest for eternity's promise.
