The Bigger Better Best Challenge: a Discipleship Tool for Youth Ministry SPIRITUAL HABIT: Spend Time with Others AGE GROUP: Students This activity is designed to help teenagers practice the spiritual habit of spending time with others. Because if we want to grow spiritually, we need to be engaged in healthy community and godly relationships with others-with people who share our beliefs, as well as with people who don't. Want to create a unique opportunity for small groups to spend time together? The Bigger Better Best Challenge is designed to get students to work together while trading up for the biggest or best item they can find. Each small group will start with a small, random item and, over several weeks (or even a full quarter), trade it with friends, family, neighbors, and anyone willing to swap. Small groups will have to strategize their next trade, brainstorm together, and come up with their sales pitch together. At the end of the challenge, small groups will all showcase their final items, and you can award prizes to the groups who are able to bring back the biggest, best, or silliest items. Happy trading! 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 activity anytime in small groups or at home.
