January 21 - High School
What we’re doing this week:
We were made to walk with God; and while it can be easy to reduce our spiritual journey to habits, rituals, and head knowledge, all of those things are the means to understanding the God who loves us and developing our relationship with Him! As we begin 2024, we will explore what it means to walk with God each and every day. Each of the teachings during this series will involve a component of practicing spending time with God in the session space!
When someone says, “I love God”, what exactly does that mean? Is it a feeling that we can work hard to conjure up? Or is it something deeper? As we begin 2024, we are going to look at what it means to love God and we can make room for the Holy Spirit to grow our affection for Him.
Bottom Line: When you give God your attention, He will win over your affection.
Scripture: Psalm 63:1-5
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.
-
We are so thankful for our volunteers who help us serve our 6th-12th grade students! Each week, our leaders arrive an hour before students to learn together about how to better lead their small groups. During this time, they share a meal together (usually just pizza--not the most exciting meal), learn something new, and build community. As a way to say "thank you" to them for pouring into our students, we would like to provide some variety to their meals a few times throughout the year. Below are links, by campus, to sign up to bring part of a meal to the Lifeline volunteers at your campus.
