40-Day Easter Devotional: a Discipleship Tool for Youth Ministry SPIRITUAL HABIT: Spend Time with God AGE GROUP: Students This activity is designed to help teenagers practice the spiritual habit of spending time with God. Because if we want to grow spiritually, we need to spend time growing in relationship with God through personal times of prayer, reading Scripture, reflection, and worship. With teenagers, we love to highlight the spiritual habit of Spending Time with God during the spring. It's one of the best times of year to help teenagers go deeper in their faith because, by the time spring arrives, you've probably identified your core students, small groups have been solidified, students have matured (a little bit), and the Easter season provides a rich backdrop for encouraging a deeper relationship with God. While you should (of course) be encouraging students to spend time with God all year long, the spring may be one of the best opportunities each year to create a more focused emphasis on a teenager's personal connection with God. That's where this devotional comes in. We've created a 40-day devotional you can use during Lent, as well as an optional 7-day introduction for students who are new to the idea of Lent. All our discipleship activities are built to be flexible! You can use this activity in a variety of ways with just a little bit of modification, but here's how we recommend using this one: Use this actvitiy leading up to easter with your students. Students can do this on their own at home.
