March 27 - Middle School

 
 
 

What we’re doing this week:

Tonight is our panel night! During teaching time, we will go through questions that are often asked by middle school students about love, relationships, and sexuality. We have prayerfully considered which questions to tackle and want to give our students Biblically-informed wisdom to help them navigate life as a middle school student! 

Questions we’ll answer:

Questions 1-3 will be answered by staff members at each campus with all male and female students present in the same room. Questions 4-7 will be discussed by staff members and pre-selected volunteers in different rooms separated by gender. This will allow for us to tailor the answers and conversation to boys and girls in ways that will be more effective to what they may be going through.

  • Why does God care so much about my relationships?

  • What is the purpose of dating? When should I start dating?

  • What do I do if I am attracted to the same sex?

  • What do I do if the person I like doesn't like me back?

  • What if I don’t like the way that I look?

  • What do I do if I feel pressured to do something I don’t think is right?

  • What should I do if I have looked at pornography?

Key Verse: We love because he first loved us. -1 John 4:19

 

 

Small Group Time:

  1. What is one thing you want to remember from the conversation tonight?

  2. What do you think would make our small group a better place to discuss big questions or share what we are going through?

  3. Pray together as a group!
