A gap year… with a difference

Yesterday afternoon a pair of seminars took place in the atrium to highlight and explain the many reasons why everyone should do FP.

When it is not being used as shorthand way of referring to your frying pan, Facebook profile or French Polynesia, FP stands for the Frontier Project, a year of learning about, growing in and serving God.

So why should you do FP? At its most clichéd: it will change your life. FPers all talk about the way they have changed and how their relationships with God have developed. If you give a year of your life to serving Him, it is little wonder that He will use it to do great things in your heart as a result.

Whether you have been a Christian for a day or are a prodigious theologian you will learn new things about the Bible and God during the training blocks, and the relationships built during this time are a massive highlight. You truly feel part of a family and make some amazing friends (and only friends; it is statistically insignificant that every member of the media team who has done FP is in a relationship with someone they met during the year…).

No matter who you are you will benefit greatly by doing the Frontier Project as well as being a blessing to the church you serve. I could not recommend the year highly enough.
