LOOK & SEE: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON EVANGELISM
WEEK 1 BIG IDEA: Jesus is someone you can believe in.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

Have you ever been confident about something (like, really confident) only to find out later that you were really wrong? It happens! We’re all bound to get things wrong once in a while, but when our eyes are opened to the truth, what matters is that we change our minds. But when it comes to Jesus, it’s not always easy to know what the truth is or how to share that truth with others. What do we do with all of the big questions that hard to answer? Is Jesus still trustworthy even when His followers mess up or life gets hard? In this 4-week series, God invites us to look, and then see, that Jesus is someone we can believe in, Jesus teaches us new things, God can use your story to help others see, and God gives us the strength to keep following Jesus.

Here’s an easy way to encourage teenagers to pray (or to step up your own prayer game): think about the words you say all the time, like “please,” “thanks,” and “sorry.” Tell God “thanks” when you’re grateful, “sorry” when you’ve messed up, and “please” when you need help. These three words are a simple prompt we can use to talk to God every day.

At least once this month, choose a volunteer to celebrate. Add their picture and a few sentences about what makes them awesome!
