  • Discussion

JESUS: WHO IS HE?

CROSS: WHY DID JESUS DIE?
This session is all about the question, why did Jesus die? Although sin has real consequences, Jesus’ death and resurrection are the solution to the problem of sin. The cross shows us that God loves us, death has been defeated, the power of sin has been broken and we can have a relationship with our heavenly Father.

FAITH: HOW CAN I HAVE FAITH?
The big question this episode explores is, what does it mean to be a Christian? Or, in other words, what does it mean to have faith? Christianity is not a club someone joins or a set of ideas to add to your knowledge. It is a life-changing relationship with Jesus! And we enter into that relationship by faith – not blind faith, but a step of faith based on the truth about who Jesus is and what he has done.

PRAYER: WHY AND HOW DO I PRAY?
Simply put, prayer is talking with God. Jesus makes it possible for us to have a personal relationship with God. Just like all of our relationships, our relationship with God grows through communication. Through prayer, God transforms situations, gives us peace, changes our perspective and shows us more of what he is like.

BIBLE: WHY AND HOW DO I READ THE BIBLE?
The Bible is the primary way God speaks to us and reveals himself to us. The Bible points us to Jesus and gives us instructions for living. Through the Bible, we’re invited to connect with God and build a day-to-day relationship with Jesus.

SPIRIT: WHO IS THE HOLY SPIRIT AND WHAT DOES HE DO?
The Holy Spirit is God with us. He is God with you! He is a source of strength and freedom. He brings change in our character. The Spirit gives us power to serve, and he fills our hearts with the love of God.

FILL: HOW CAN I BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT?
God wants all of us to experience being filled with his Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit fills our lives, our experience is marked by a profound sense of God’s love and power, boldness to tell others, and a renewed desire to praise God. This experience is unique for each person.

NEW LIFE: HOW CAN I MAKE THE MOST OF THE REST OF MY LIFE?
A relationship with God changes everything. Because of God’s great love for us, we can live a new life! No matter what kind of past you have had, God invites us to make the most of the rest of our lives. The new life that God invites us into is a life lived in response to his love.

EVIL: HOW CAN I RESIST EVIL?
There are three forces of evil: the world (evil around us); the flesh (evil within us); the devil (spiritual forces of evil). The devil hates God and wants to destroy what’s closest to God’s heart – us! Three of his primary tactics are temptation, accusation and lies. We can stand firm against the devil’s attacks and more than that, with God we can overcome evil with good!

TELLING OTHERS: WHY AND HOW SHOULD I TELL OTHERS?
The message about Jesus is the best news anyone could ever hear! Because of who Jesus is and what he has done, we can have a relationship with God! With gentleness and respect, we can tell others about our faith and experience. Our words, prayers and loving actions all make a difference.

HEALING: DOES GOD HEAL TODAY?
God invites us to play a part in bringing healing to others. The Gospels are full of stories of how Jesus healed people miraculously. What we see in the New Testament and throughout history is that God uses his followers to do the same. While we may not fully understand why God heals some people and not others, we keep asking because we can trust that he is a good and loving Father.

CHURCH: WHAT ABOUT THE CHURCH?
The church is the family of God. It’s people, not a building. It’s a movement of hope, love and justice. We are all invited to live out our faith in community with other believers. God works through the church to extend love to the whole world.
