October 16 - Middle School

 

What we’re learning this week:

As we begin our 3-week series where we explore exactly what Jesus said about relationships, we begin by talking about the very foundation of love itself. The foundation of love itself is God’s love for us in sending Jesus to redefine us today and forever. Students will be reminded that living into the love of Jesus instead of defining love by other means will lead to them having fulfilled and purposeful lives.

Bottom Line: You are defined by the One who loved you first.
Scripture:John 3:16-17, 1 John 4:19, Romans 5:8

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.

  1.  What was the teaching about tonight?

  2. Is there anything I can do to help you get your identity and value from Jesus?

 

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.
