Dear Keene college students

Dear Keene College Students ,



I write you this letter out of love and concern for you.
My Girlfriend and Me were walking into Keene for the pumpkin fest around 12:30 P.M., what i saw broke my heart.
 Girls half dressed , girls and guys carrying 24 packs wasted already, and then the riots , it made made feel so sad for you.
You can take as me judging harshly but i am not , i have been were you are and that is why i fee sad for you.
 The reason i feel sad for you is that i get why you guys living like this right now because have the mindset that you are young and  i am invincible .
You are not invincible,  this young & reckless mentality/lifestyle can and will  catch up to you.
An i can say that is because it caught up at one point in my life .
When my reckless lifestyle did catch up with me , i had choice keep living like i  been living and end up dead or give my life to Jesus and  live in freedom .
I gave my life to Jesus and i have been sober for five years.
 I can't tell you what to do but i ask that you look at your life right an ask i am i living up to my full potential ? 
I also would  ask that you would  to ask yourself ,  Who is Jesus ? 

Romans 8:1-2New International Version (NIV)

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[a] free from the law of sin and death.

My presonal demon by brian luke leeman

2014 has been a emotional  and mentally draining year for me , so today i need to to vent and  release the some the sadness and pain inside me .
I know some people are going to say this is not the place for this but i need to do this so i can get better.
So i warning you now , read at own risk  ( some strong language) 

So what i have been dealing with this year is what happen to me at the age of five .

At five years old i was molested  by a family member for a whole year .

Until i was   13 i thought happen to me was normal , when i realized that i had been molested , it turned my world upside down.

I went through counseling but it has never helped me   , so drugs , alcohol  , and cutting myself  were my way of dealing with the pain and the haunting memories .

I have been sober for five years by the grace of God and  i have not cut in 6 months .

Lately  i have been having nightmares of being molested  almost every night , i have only had one night without a nightmare .

 I have this deep sadness that i can't escape from , i want to cry but nothing comes out .

I pray to God every day for relief from this pain but i am not sure if he hears me anymore .

I just want to be done with this pain , i don't deal with this shit anymore !!!!!!!!!

When i look in the mirror i see  a broken man  that just wants to be happy.

I need to deal with this because  1.  for me , i just need to be done with this  and 2. i have a girlfriend  , i plan  on marrying and need to get better for her .

So in closing , i hope i have not offended   anyone , i just needed to vent .

And my scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel- Scars by Papa Roach

I JUST LOVE PEOPLE ! BY BRIAN LUKE LEEMAN

 Jude 1: 22-23 New International Version (NIV)
22 Be merciful to those who doubt; 23 save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.[a]





One of the most important things for me as Christian is to share The Gospel With lost .

For some reason today Christan's have forgotten that we are suppose to have love  for lost.

I  notice we as Christians have been more condemning of the lost  then loving on them.

I have done this myself ,  I get so passionate about The Gospel  here on my blog that i forget to love on the people i am trying to reach .

When I share The Gospel with someone I want to be able to build a connection with  that person ,  i can't do that  if shoving condemnation and fear down there throats.

I think one of the groups   we as Christians  have slacked  on reaching is Gay community.

Now do i agree with their lifestyle choice or gay marriage ? no.

Guess what ? Jesus loves gay people !!!!!!!

Does love their sin ? No!   But  he loves them , Jesus Love everyone !

We need to realize that  Gay People need Jesus too , we need to reach them!

In closing, we need to reach the lost with love not condemnation!


“We should be more concerned with reaching the lost than pampering the saved.”
― David Mcgee

FIVE THINGS GOING THROUGH LEEMAN'S HEAD PART 5!

Well here is the fifth edition of what is going through Leeman's head!!!!!!

Enter at your own risk son !!!!!!



5.  Loving New Hampshire !!!!

I was really nervous about moving to New Hampshire but I know God has a plan for me here.

I am living with a Great family that cares about me and wants to see me to do better.

The scenery here is amazing and fall is here, so it is going to make this state seem like another world.

4.    Boyce avenue

I started  to listen to this band two years ago and wow, they are so goooooood!!!!!!!
so instead of me going off on how great they are here is a cover they did  of U2'S Song With Or Without you:





3.  Top 40 is killing music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don"t   get there some decent Top 40  bands and artist that are great but a good majority are killing the idea of great music!
  
For some messed reason people find nikki manaj ,  justin beiber , kesha , lady gaga, and so many more  music good .

Top 40 should not be your key source for music !!!

the point is that top 40 is killing music !



2.    MY FAVORITE RAPPER RIGHT NOW !!!!!!

I have to say Dre Murray is my favorite rapper  right now.

Maybe one days is my favorite song from him right now ! and yes he is Christian




1.   THANK YOU  MR. JETER

THE STORM BY BRIAN LUKE LEEMAN

THE STORM



The Storm approaches me and i am not sure if I can withstand this Storm .
A roll of thunder shouts out" you should give up, you are weak  !"
But I say " no i am not ! I can beat this !"
A flash lighting crackles an says " You have failed at life ! , No more chances ! Give up fool!"
But I say "That is a lie , i will make something out of myself! "
The wind blows harshly against me  an says " You are ugly, you should wear a mask !"
But i say " I might not be good looking but looks are not everything !"
The rain pours down on me an says "  Your past is your future !"
But i say " No!!!!!!!!!!!!!   my past does not define my future !!!
The Sun comes out and clears storm out of my way an says" My Son , Trust in me and find strength in  me . I love you so much.  I get on my knees an say " I gave you everything Jesus , my life is in your hands ".

The Road I'm On By Brian Luke Leeman

The road i am on is a confusing one and seems to get rougher each day .

I have been this road before , why i am on this road for second time ?

I try to walk this road with a positive  attitude but rain clouds keep appearing ,

This Road seems  to have so many twist and turns , when does it become straight ?

This Road is taking a toll  on mind and body ,   some rest would be nice.

I cry daily on this Road  , my tears have become my refuge .

I call out to the owner of this road for help but i hear nothing but silence.

This Road i walk has to  go some were right ?

I take a breath and  continue to walk this road with hope that there will be a rest stop sooner or later .

Who Am I?

The past 3 or four days i have been wrestling with Question who am i ?

I am 25 without a career , i work at a k mart.
Not saying working  k mart is the worst thing in the world , i just feel like i could be do better.
 I know big part of me not having career is my fault because of   my past and my mistakes , i accept that.
I just want to be able to say i did something with my life .

I feel at times by ship has passed , stupid right ? but thats how i feel.

Its not that  have tired  to better or go after my dreams , its just things tend not to work out for as planned  but that's life.

Going back to college is not option for me

This is just me venting here ,  which is hard for me to do .
I don't want pity  , so please don't give me any .

LEEMANS VIEW ON MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUICIDE

So with  Robin Williams death there is lot of mixed emotions that come with this because Robin committed suicide.

I have  done a blog post on  Depression before but i feel like i need to address this topic again because hurtful stuff i am hearing from people


I  struggle with depression  and i have  tried to commit suicide once .

In  January of 2010 ,  i was 7 months sober  and a new Christian.    I was having hard time dealing  with some stuff from my past   , so one i decided i couldn't take it anymore and took some of mom's pills an tried to kill my self.  Well God had different plans   for me ,  all the pills did was make see stuff that wasn't there. I really don't remember much but  my mom told that i said i wanted to go to the hospital and i spent two weeks in the psych unit  .

Now  i  still deal with depression  but with my friends , family,  my Girl Friend's love and  support  , and  Relationship With Jesus , i don"t have to deal with  depression  alone


Three points i want to make clear about Depression :

1. Depression or mental illness is not a Sin !

2.  you are lying if you say you have never been depressed !

3. Your not possed   if  have a mental illness !

I am tired of the ignorance showed by Christians  towards their  fellow Christians   and towards non believers that deal with mental illness .  

 WE NEED TO LOVE ON THEM , NOT MAKE THEM FEEL WORSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

in closing , Christians, we need to deal with theses issue's in the right way , not the way we have been dealing with it  for years !

TOP FIVE IDEAS TO HELP ATTRACT YOUTH TO YOUR CHURCH BY BRIAN LUKE LEEMAN

So  my Mom wanted me to do a blog post  on  how to attract Youth to come to Church .

So here is my top five ideas to attract youth to come to Church .



5.  Be real with them!

 Don't put on a act  for them , they will smell your phoniness a mile away!

Don't sugar coat your messages   , they may not like what you have to say all the time but they will respect your honesty .

Don't try to be there mom or dad for them ,  not saying that you shouldn't be authority figure in their life but they don't need another mom and dad in their life's.

 

4.Have Strong Leaders !

You leaders in your youth group need to be on the same page as you ,   have a passion for  youth , and have to have a strong relationship with Jesus ( not saying  you have to be perfect ) .

You need to make it known to  your leaders that is a privilege to  be a leader not a right .



3. Small Groups!

Now Small Groups are good for when you have ten or more   in your youth group .
Small Groups  helps your youth to  get to know the leaders , you , and the youth better , an  it helps them have a deeper relationship with Jesus.

Small groups help answer Questions  the might have about their faith .


2.  Have events for the youth!at don;t normally come to church

A big thing to have youth come to your church is having  events .
A church i was a leader at , we has a nerf gun event .

We had a time of worship   and someone shared a message .
Then had snacks for them and then had awesome nerf war .
We had a lot kids that don't  normally go to church or youth group  ,

Event give your youth opportunity to bring their friends to church .


1. Jesus needs to be the center of it all!

The main thing for youth group to be successful is That Jesus is in control of your youth Group.

You main goal for youth group needs to be to lead youth to Christ  and help them be disciples of  Christ .

Let the Holy Spirit lead your youth group !




in closing , i leave you with this quote :

“Over the years I've found it much more helpful to follow the advice of Sister Liebert and seek to treat each young person as a teacher from God, someone God has placed in my life in order to help me grow in faith. When I encounter a young person, I find it much more helpful to think that she (or he) may be the only Jesus I'll ever know. Perhaps by seeking to encounter the presence of Christ in young people, we'll find ourselves better able to see them, hear them, feel compassion for them, and respond in kindness.” 
― Mark YaconelliContemplative Youth Ministry: Practicing the Presence of Jesus

LEEMAN'S VIEW ON THE ERIC GARNER

So I have been waiting for my anger to subside to point were i can share my view on the killing of Eric Garner .

That's right i said killing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have read up on this situation and saw the video ,  Nypd  should be ashamed of themselves !!!!

I understand what the nypd was confronting him ,  apparently was selling loose cig's  but that is no reason for  the brutality  That the nypd did.


The nypd used a choke hold on Eric that is illegal in NY , so why did theses officers use a hold that is banned ?

you want to know why ? because he was a 300 pound black man !!!!!!!

I know my super Conservative friends  will say thats not true  but guess what ? It's the truth!!!!!

It does not matter if you agree with me or not, Racism is still alive in America!!!!!!

Here is my other view on this situation  :  Forgiveness and Healing

The old me would love to see theses officer's pension taking away, get the crapped beat out of them  or stoned .

But that is not what Jesus wants in this Tragedy ,  He wants  us to find some way a peaceful way to find justice for  this situation .

NYPd needs to ask forgiveness and find ways to heal theses wounds that have caused this pain

I am praying that Eric Garner's wife will able to find peace  and some point forgive her husbands murderers.


So thats my 2 cents ,  what  are your thoughts ?

YOU HAVE CHOICES !!!!! BY BRIAN LUKE LEEMAN

We all have choices  in life , some good and some bad.

One of things that annoy's  me about brothers  and sisters in Christ  is how they  will blame other's for making them sin or  want  to stay in sin   because they like the attention from people   who are trying to help them with dealing with that sin .  Or they like the feeling of being rescued .
So this is a  short story called  YOU HAVE CHOICES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



YOU HAVE CHOICES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Billy is a freshman in high school   , he is  plays for his high school football team  and is the debate team captain. 

Billy get's good grades and volunteers at a local nursing home, so pretty much he is a good rounded kid.

Billy is popular in his group of friends  , so one Saturday night   he had to make a choice , to be cool with friends or do the right thing .

One Saturday night Billy was hanging out with his group of friends  at a bonfire , one of his friends pulled out a bag of pot and case of beer.

His Friend says: "  let's  get wasted  guys ! "

Billy has never  tried pot and has never had a beer in his life ,  he never felt he needed to that stuff to be cool.

Billy says :   " no thanks bro "

His Friends start teasing him  and   egging him to join in.

Billy doesn't  know what to do , he does not want to get wasted but he also does not like being teased by his friends .

So Billy has a choice  to get wasted to friends  and be cool or do the right thing   and say no .

 Billy decides to say no and leaves the bonfire .

You see billy knew he had a choice  and knew if he got wasted with his friends  , he could lose all things he worked for  .  

So in closing ,  we choose to sin  , no one can make sin !!!! 

SERMON OF THE WEEK!!!!!

This week's sermon is John Pipers : " Don't Waste Your Life "

Not going too much about this sermon , the only thing i will say is that this is one best messages i have ever heard.

Leeman's view on modesty ! by brian luke leeman



This is issue  of modesty in Christianity  is highly  debated  issue , so i thought i would give  my view on  this issue .


I am probably going to offend the old school Conservative  stiff  Christians  but  I have to speak the truth and nothing but the truth !

 I went to a bible school  were we couldn't wear  certain  clothing  because it would cause our fellow students to fall in temptation .

I will admit certain things  guys or ladies should not wear but some of the rules were crazy !!

 For example, Guys could not wear shorts unless  you were going to gym play a sport or going to work out .

Another example ,  we had to do wear dress clothes to class for some crazy reason , so the ladies had to wear dresses  ( knee's had to be covered ) .

I never got this bull crap ,   it never made sense that their thinking is that  Christian's are one step from falling temptation because some girl's knees are showing or  that guy wearing shorts in the public area is going send a girl into lust.

Now  there are some thing's guys and gals should not wear    , Ex. Guys: mankini's  and EX. ladies : yoga pants, i am not going to name more , my next point will explain why .

What ever happen to self control and taking responsibility ?


1 Corinthians 9:27English Standard Version (ESV)

27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control,[a] lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

We are suppose to have self discipline , which means  reading the Bible and spending time in Prayer  !
For some reason some Christians would rather be legalistic and not be self discipline and not take responsibility for there lust/fleshly desires .

Yow all remember  how Adam put the blame on eve for giving him the apple from the tree ? Guess what ?  Adam is was much to blame as Eve was !
Adam did not have to take  or eat that apple ! he had a choice !

WE HAVE A CHOICE TO GIVE IN TO LUST !!!!!!!
now if you choose to wear dress clothes , long sleeved shirts , or jean skirts,  more power to you but don't act like your way is the right way to dress as christian .
in Closing,  if i have offend you then good . maybe i got you thinking !

DEAR EDGEWOOD YOUTH BY BRIAN LUKE LEEMAN

DEAR EDGEWOOD YOUTH,





Hey guys i wanted to write  this letter  just what has been on my heart    .

You all i know left  to care for my folks , well even though  i know you guys understand that  i needed to leave  , i felt like abandoned you guys .

This weekend at my Girl friends church   ,  someone spoke over my life and said this is not my burden .
I know now  i did the right thing  and i know i didn't abandoned you .

With that said i want to share something else on my heart with  you .


I am believing that God will add more youth to the youth group  but think you that are in youth to start doing your part .

I know  when as teen it is hard to getting  your friends to come but you need too invite your friends .


Jeremiah 1:7-8 ESV 

But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am only a youth’; for to all to whom I send you, you shall go, and whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, declares the Lord.


















In those two verses  God is saying  : 1.  Being a young does not disqualify you to witness to people.









2.   Have no fear to witness  to people , God will give you the strength and the words to  who you witness to.














Pastor  Sam and others leader are there to help the youth group also but you also need to do your part .


















I hope every ones summer has been great !


















love ,






Brian Leeman Aka B Leem's
