December 4 - Middle School
What we’re learning this week:
The Countdown to Christmas is ON and we are excited to focus our hearts on the arrival of Jesus during this season. This two-week series will focus on the image of light that is not only captured in the prophecies and stories of the birth of Jesus, but is also a key theme throughout Scripture. This week there is a student teaching at each campus about how the light of Jesus outshines the darkness that we find ourselves navigating in our lives. The students have worked thoughtfully and prayerfully to bring this important message to their Lifeline peers!
Bottom Line: There is no darkness that Jesus can’t light up.
Scripture: Isaiah 9:2,6 and John 1:5
Car ride home questions:
Below are some questions you can ask your student about the teaching tonight as you help them unpack what they’ve been learning.
I heard a student was teaching tonight! If you were teaching at Lifeline, what would you want to teach about?
What area of your life have you seen Jesus shine in recently?
Things to know:
-
We are encouraging our students to bring a physical bible to Lifeline this year! We’re going to be more intentional about opening it up and reading for ourselves as we walk through a teaching. If you our your student need assistance getting a bible, don’t hesitate to talk with our staff!
-
We have launched a new Grow resource page to help students take practical next steps in areas of their faith. Some are more devotional in nature while others are meant to be a bit more information to help grow their understanding. A student can walk through these alone or it could be something you go through with them. The current topics we have are all available here on our Grow page.
