Back To The Future: a 4-Week Teaching Series for Youth Ministry TOPIC: Justice SCRIPTURE: Old & New Testament DECORATING THEME: Series Thematic AGE GROUP: Students Whether it's to stop yourself from saying something stupid, or see where you'll be in 10 years, or experience your favorite moment in history firsthand, we all wish we had a time machine sometimes, right? While time machines might not actually exist, the Bible can sometimes feel a little bit like a time machine. It's the story of the God who exists outside of time and had a plan to save the world before time even existed. God's plan was fulfilled through Jesus 2,000 years ago, but prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Amos left us hints about God's plan hundreds of years before that. So what was that plan? In this 4-week series, we'll discover that Jesus' mission was to set people free and rebuild what has been destroyed - and we can join Him on that mission, in part, by doing justice and remembering all God has done.
