September 25 - Middle School

 

What we’re learning this week:

In tonight’s teaching, we learn how prayer is more simple than we think. Prayer begins with the removal of our distractions. By looking at the story of Mary and Martha, we found three fundamental things about prayer: Place (being where Jesus is), Posture (open and listening), and Priority (first things first).

Bottom Line: Prayer begins by removing distractions and giving our attention to the one who wants it most and can use it best.
Scripture: Luke 10:38-42

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.

  •  What was the teaching about tonight? Who taught it?

  •  What was the “YouTube” game you played?

  • What did you learn about prayer? Can you teach me?

 

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.
