How do you grow as a follower of Jesus? How can I prioritize God instead of worldly things? How can I overcome temptation in my life? These are among the many questions that were asked when we surveyed students in January. During this series, we are going to get practical by showing students how their faithful pursuit of Jesus day by day can put them in position to live the life God has called them to live. This week, we’re talking about how the habits we say yes to and the habits we say no to eventually end up creating the road map to who we become.

What did Jesus say about ____? This is a common question! The good news is that Jesus taught his followers about a variety of different things! This week, each campus will get to hear from their campus’ Lifeline Resident as they unpack one of the teachings of Jesus from the Gospels!

These are starting questions to help you guide small group conversations. These questions are created especially for our relationship series so that you can feel confident owning your small group time! This guide also includes terminology and strategies for turning the conversation.

Do you not know exactly how to redirect your students or lay down the law during Small Group time? We are here to help! Whether you are in middle or high school, your students may need a reminder that you are their leader and there are rules at Lifeline. 

There are many crises a student can go through. As their Lifeline leader, you may be one of the first people to know. It is easy to feel intimidated or scared and you want to make sure you say the right thing and know what to do. That is where we are here to help and support you!

Committing to lead students or leaders is a big deal. You are not only a facilitator of discussion, you are an example to others in how you live your life and follow through on your commitments!

As a leader or coach in Lifeline, our students will be looking to you as a role model in how you live as a follower of Jesus. You have a significant opportunity to help students ground their identity in Christ by how you ground your own identity in Christ– not just on Wednesdays or Sundays, but with your whole life.

The Leader Toolkit is a helpful tool that can help you manage your small group. You’ll be able to click on each student in your group to see more information including photos, birthdate, parent contact information, etc.
