November 19 - High School
What we’re learning this week:
Have you ever come across a situation or season of life that caused you to ask God, “Where are you?” During this series, we will talk about the life circumstances that cause us to ask questions like this and explore the answers. We will learn that drawing near to in all times is what we were made to do.
Throughout this series, we have looked at the variety of difficult circumstances we find ourselves in that cause us to ask the question, “Where is God?” As we conclude this series, we will look at a less negative yet extremely common question: Where is God when life is going fine? Moses gave the Israelites a speech with three important truths to remember as they were about to enter the blessing of the promise land: God did (rescue them from slavery), God is doing (sustaining them), and God deserves (our obedience).
Bottom Line: God did, God is doing, and God deserves.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 8:10-18
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.
