All works. The ideas for this book came from the same people as you are from the very thick of youth ministry.

In this book, you will find a golden custody of the practical ideas of youth service for studying the Bible, evangelistic programs, prayers, games, work with large audiences, advice on how to start a discussion and capture the attention of the listeners. All these ideas were developed in practice and sent to a very popular heading of the magazine "Group Magazine" called "Try this!".

When I organized a "group" in 1974, there was no "World Wide Web" - electronic network for youth workers or anyone else. But I definitely existed to share good ideas among youth service fighting "on the fronts". It became the dream "Group Magazine". Section called "Try this!" Quickly became favorite among readers who were looking for useful, fun and proven in the practice of ideas that were sent by other magazine readers. In that preinetovskaya era, "try this!" turned into an off-line forum that does not require any high technologies.

And "try this!" Still remains a favorite heading in the "group", which is the most readable resource for youth service worldwide. Some tips worked and will work. God definitely blessed many, which someone shared in the section "Try this!".

In this book, we collected the best ideas from our headings sent to us over the past few years. Look for, enjoy and apply these ideas in your ministry. They work! And join the long tradition to share the best ideas for youth ministry. Your best ideas send us [Email Protected]

Introduction
In the life of every youth leader, this moment comes when he or she faces an eternal question: "What do we need to do for this?" That is why more than two decades ago we decided to open the heading "Try this!" With reliable ideas that you as practitioners applied in our student ministry.

The very first book published by the "Group" was a meeting of the best letters from the magazine section "Try this!". For many years, we have not released such books and thought that it was time to do it. Therefore, we opened the warehouse of the heading "Try this!" And chose the best ideas to get another book for you. Starting to revise letters, we again remembered what amazing things you do to build relationships with adolescents.

This book is a collection of these ideas presented in easily organized sections that will enable you to search and plan events for the future or just take the book and on the run "to learn" from it the idea that you need today. We inspire you to make this book tool for daily ministry. Make the mark, sign the date over each idea you took advantage of, let each advice assessment according to its effect on your group and let it read the leaders subordinate to you.

For your convenience, the book is divided into the following sections: study of the Bible, ideas for working with a large audience, the beginning of discussions, search for financing, games, building groups, useful tips and evangelization. Under each heading, all that you will need for this type of activity, and you will be easy to find what is necessary now. We hope you enjoy the best ideas collected in this book!
Bible study

Signatures for pictures

Already after five minutes of this biblical study, the parable begins to sound cheerful laughter.
For this type of Bible study, you will need a pack of yellow press from any supermarket. In addition, you will need paper, glue and several serious magazines like "Time" or "Newsweek".

Distribute yellow newspapers. Explain that most of the Bible is devoted to the preparation for the coming kingdom and the management of pious life, and the Proverb book was written in order to help us pass this earthly life, here and now, day after day. Distribute the Bible and ask the guys to use any verse from the Proverb book as a signature to any photo from the yellow press. Let the children write poetry on a piece of paper and stick a picture from the newspaper.

Soon the semishes turn into laughter and loud fun! Then take one of the serious magazines or newspapers and ask the band again to sign signatures from the book of Proverbs. Let them stick these cuttings and signatures on another piece of paper. This time the signatures will more accurately reflect the thought. Hang these works in the hall in your church so that all its members can see them. Complete the work of the prayer and ask God to ensure that all these biblical verses have already found their use in the lives of adolescents.

More and better

This method of studying the Bible helps children better understand the value of God's blessings.
Start the study of the Bible with the "Things" called "more and better." Divide your group on commands from four or five people and give each group a cans with soup. Tell me that they have 15 minutes to exchange their jar on something better and more. If the place of your meetings does not allow you to freely walk and bargain with each other, let one person from the group alone and ask to try to exchange it for something from other members of the group. After 15 minutes, compare "transactions" and declare which of them "more and better."

Was it easy to exchange soup bank?
Is Iaua easily exchange your birthright for soup?
What do you think, whether ISAV sorry ever about his decision? Explain.
What are God's blessings teenagers can exchange on what they think will bring them happiness?
Why do they refuse these blessings?
Do you think they will regret it?
How can God help you understand what to exchange, but what is to take care?

Complete everything with a brief "team" prayer, asking everyone to call something that he or she will be preserved and will offer God for His kingdom.

One body, many members

Use 1 Cor. 12: 12-31 to inspire everyone to the discussion about how individual talents can contribute to the Body of Christ.
For this event, you first need to create a sculpture from a variety of items. For example, you can use elements from LEGO sets, plasticine, wooden bars, paper, polychlorvinyl tubes, hangers, cardboard, paints, boxes or plastics. Then remove the resulting design and set the set of materials that you used to create it. Divide the class into groups of four people and give each member of the group of your role of any part of the body: eyes, ears, legs or hands. Then collect all the eyes from each group in one corner of the room, the ears in the other, etc. Use the following rules to create sculptures similar to your:

Only eyes can directly see your sculpture.
The eyes describe the ears what they see.
The ears tell the legs that heard.
The legs collect all the necessary materials and talk about the heard hands.
Hands create a design according to the information received.

Let the information transmits so many times as necessary to complete the sculpture. When the groups completed their designs, show your design sample design and discuss the following:

How does your sculpture differ from the designs of everyone else?
Would you create the same design, if in your group there was no ear, eyes, etc.?

Then read out loud 1 code. 12: 12-31 Such: everyone together read poems 12-14; Feet read verse 15; Ears read verse 16; Eyes read verse 17; All together read verses 18-20; Hands read verse 21; You are reading verse 22-31. Then let the groups discuss the following questions:

Why did the apostle Paul chose a human body as an illustration of the role of every person in the church?
What can you rely on others in the church?
What can the church rely on you?
What part of the Body of Christ?

Complete everything with a prayer - ask God to conduct everyone in the definition of it or its part in the Body of Christ.

Warning labels

Use silly warning labels to inspire adolescents to think about their dedication to Christ.
Look for examples of stupid, but really existing warning labels on the Internet. Make a list and distribute it to your students. Then you will see a little over what stupas should be people to be able to warn about such obvious things. Ask:

What do you think, why do these products have such stupid warnings?
If the warning label would you wear, what would be written there?

Let the three-four person groups read the following passages together: LC. 9: 23-27; 9: 57-62 and 18: 18-30. Ask:

What, as Jesus says in these verses, maybe you will have to leave for him?
When people decide to follow Jesus, why can they sometimes not even think about what it may have to pay?
Were you surprised what you had to sacrifice because of your dedication to Christ?

Give students on a piece of paper and ask:

If Christianity had a warning label, what would be written on it?

Then let each student draw a cross and add its warning label.

Rules and power - so what?

Use the game without rules to help youth understand why the rules are so important.
Let the guys unite into groups of four to six people, and give each group a board game. Tell me everyone that the game has one rule: no rules and no one. After about 10 minutes of the group, the following questions should be discussed:

How is the game change, if there are no rules?
Why do you think there are rules in general?
What rules protect us?
Do you obey these rules?
What do you do when you do not like some rule?

Tell me the following: Often the rules seem meaningless to us. Sometimes we are injected by those in whose hands any power is concentrated. Because of this, we find yourself in a dead end or very upset, as we succeeded with these board games. But God did not think at all like this. He uses the rules to protect us. When the rules are installed by God, he will never let us down.

Consider loud Rome. 13: 1-7. Then let the groups discuss the following questions:

Whether this passage changes your idea of \u200b\u200bthe rules and authorities? Why?
In what situations do you have complex relationships with the authorities?
How can we help each other in these difficulties? How can God help?

Complete everything with prayer - ask the guys to pray for individual power of pre-war people, for a healthy attitude towards these people and for the permission of difficulties with the authorities.

Promises for bricks

Use bricks to illustrate how, holding your burden, we can build a barrier among themselves and God.
Ask:

Why do people usually worry?
What methods do they usually apply to fight anxiety?

Let students be grouped into pairs or three and read 1 PT. 5: 7 and PS. 55:22. Ask:

Did you have that by giving your stress to God, then you again experienced him? Explain.
Why so often we are unable to completely give their concerns to God, despite God's promises?
What special steps can help us in this?

Drink a cart in the room with bricks. Each student will need one brick. Let each student take the brick and the permanent marker will write a word on it or draws a picture that denotes or symbolizing what causes him stress. Then ask students to build a small wall of these bricks. When she is ready, ask:

How do these burden build a barrier between us and God?
How does God use our burden in order to bring us towards themselves?

Then ask again to take your brick and write on the reverse side: "I give it to God." Let the students find a partner and pray together, asking God to help free from Bremen. Tell the disciples to take their bricks home as a reminder that they are every day - and completely - gave their anxiety to God.

Serving others, serve God

Prepare your group to the project for serving or missionary travel, using training based on the Gospel of John 13.
You will need a canvas, scotch, acrylic paint, soap water, clean water, towels, CDs with a record of Third Day "City On a Hill" and a CD player.

In advance of the upcoming missionary trips, write the name, date and place of your project at the top of a large canvas and attach it to the wall of your meeting room. Paint paint and water basins. Read out loud. 13: 1-5, 12-17. Ask a volunteer to lower your hand into the paint and leave your imprint on the canvas. Then wash the hand of the Volunteer and ask him to wash the hand of the next person who will leave his mark on the wall. Continue until you yourself leave the imprint and the last person will not wash your hand. Then ask:

What did you feel when you wash your hand? When did you wash your hand to your hand?
How is the left imprint on the canvas look like your participation on the trip?

Let the troops read the PS. 123: 1, MF. 25:40, count 3:23. Ask:

How do you do with your own hands, reflects God's love?
How do you serve God, serving others?
What do you hope to give and get during this missionary trip?

Complete everything by listening to the song "City On A Hill" and pray for yourself.

War with water balls

Machine children with "military actions" and conduct learning about the spiritual war.
Form two commands and give each team a few balls with water. Check the commands in front of each other, at a distance of about 4-5 meters.

Choose which command will start, then allow everyone from this command to throw your balls to another command - all at the same time. If you got into someone, this person should sit down. Then let the second team throws. Spend three rounds of such a "execution". That team in which there will be more people standing, won. Explain that this battle looks like a war of independence in America. Ask:

Was there any team stronger than another?
What did you feel when another team had the opportunity to throw balls in you? Explain.
What helped you to unite in this battle?

Read 2 Cor. 10: 3-5. Then ask:

What did Paul meant, saying: "Not on the flesh are militant"?
How important is the thought of spiritual war for you and why?
What enemies are we fighting?
What kind of weapons are you most relying in the knowledge of the spiritual war?
What additional weapons can you add to your arsenal?
What kind of special ways can we support each other in this battle?

Biblical

Use rogue characters from the Bible in the game to "stay alive" to learn about the unconditional love of Christ.
To do this, study the Bible you need to create a card with information for each person from your group. Use the Bible to find people who could be perceived as expensive: lepers, collector, blind, relaxed, shepherd, Roman centurion, fisherman, prophet or demonstrated by demons. Write for each brief information explaining why he could be considered an outcast. Distribute these cards to students.

Let everyone sit in a circle and talk on behalf of their character about who they are. Then let everyone write on a piece of paper of the character he or she would like to exclude from the game on the basis of their smallest benefit for society. Between the Rounds of Voting, let the "survivor" prove, why they must be left in the group. When four people remain, allow the "outcasts" to vote for the winner.

After the game, read out loud MF. 5: 1-12. Discuss the following questions:

How, in your opinion, would look at our "rogue" Jesus?
How would you explain - what is the unconditional love?
How important is your appearance or social status for you or your friends?
What is the difference to what they look at us, from how God see us?

Fast Food Lessons

Turn the snack in the fast food cafe to an instructive example for members of your youth group.
For Sunday study, the Bible is reduced to the breakfast group in the cafe. Go to Fast Food, where there is a 24-hour window through which you can buy everything without leaving the car. When you all choose, arrange a group in a cozy corner to start learning the Scripture. First ask the guys like what happens before the distribution window can describe their way of faith (for example, you sometimes have to wait or in the menu there is no what you want).

Discuss the following questions using the corresponding Scriptures when answering:

Why is the "waiting" so important in your faith path? (Ps. 24: 5; 26:14; 39: 1-3; Is. 30:18; FLP. 3:20)
What do you do when you want an "missing menu"? How do you oppose or accept God's plan? (Ier. 29:11)
How do you understand what God wants to tell you? How do you communicate with God? How does God communicate with you? (2 pairs. 7:14; Ier. 33: 3 and 1 Cor. 2: 9-10)
What "Exchange" do you exercise faith in your path? What do you give God? What did Christ pay for and what did you get in exchange? (Jac. 2:18 and 1 in. 2: 2)

Bible and Salochk

Do not miss the opportunity during the next game in the "Salochki" in the fresh air with flashlights - add an instructive moment!
You will need the Bible with Concordance Paper and Pens or Pencils.

We break the guys into small groups and hand over each group a list of words related to salting in the dark. For example, "fast", "fear", "mission", "Darkness", "hide" or "teams". Ask groups to choose one word from this list, which can also relate to Christian life. Ask groups to find this word in Concordance and write biblical links related to this word. Then ask each member of the group to find one of the listed Scriptures and write a few thoughts on how the lodges are associated with their faith.

Your groups can be born such ideas:

Darkness (Ps. 17:29) - God is with us not only in good times (in the light), but also in bad (in darkness).
Fear (Ps. 26: 1) - When we remember about salvation promised by God, we do not need to be afraid of anything.
Hide (Matt. 5:14:16) - We should never hide their faith from the world.

After all members of the group shake with each other with their thoughts, discuss the following:

How does the game in the slope in the dark on your walk in faith?
What place the Scripture from the read became the most inspiring for you? Explain.
How can you use the Bible as a weapon against sin and evil?

Look for and clothe

(Especially effectively in working with the guys of medium-sized adolescence)
This is a quick mass game in the shopping center - a fun way to learn the Bible and makes a new meaning in the quest game.
Create a command of two or three guys. Then take the six adult voluntary helpers with some distinctive features that you can quickly see. Ask each of the adults to choose a favorite biblical verse, which they will share with adolescents. For these "distinctive features" you can use the following suggestions:

Man sitting on the phone book (Ps. 104: 1-2)
A man with coins sticking with scotch tape to the sole of shoes (1 Tim. 6: 6-10)
A man with dark plaster on the leg (Is. 35: 3-6).
Man in glasses (Heb. 11: 1)
Man with a torn part of the pantna (Proverb. 4: 11-12)
A man with a torn panta, bowed on his head (1 Cor. 1: 27-28)

Ask volunteers to disperse on the shopping center (only without going to the shops) and change the place after anyone finds them. When the team finds this volunteer, an adult tells them their verse.

Ask two other adults to become chronometrics that will send each team to the task, saying, for example: "Look for and unite ... a person sitting on the phone book. Bring me good news. " Teams armed with the Bibles find this person. Make sure the guys will not go to the shops. They can be represented and talking from which church to sitting people, explaining that they have a search game and are interested in whether they are sitting on the phone book. Having found an adult, the team runs back and reads the biblical verse chronometricists and only then receive the following task. Chronometrics once again send teams in search of another adult.

Complete the game after a certain time goes or when any command performed all six tasks. Agree with adult volunteers to meet with teams in a cafe of a shopping center, where you can have a snack and discuss biblical poems. Ask:

How does this game look like your way of faith?
What biblical verse is most of all for you and why?
Did you throw any kind of call? Explain.

We were so fun that somewhat passing by teenagers stopped seeing what we do, and, in the end, joined our game!

"To direct my gaze"

Dear youth leaders!

Let this allowance for work in youth small groups "to date my gaze" will be at least a small, but tangible support in your difficult and inspirational work on the particularly significant territory of God's field - the ministry of youth and teenagers. Threads are designed for more young people who have recently embarked on the path of faith and now need to form or crystallize their Christian position in various spheres of spiritual life. Open the doors of small groups and for the guys who feel the lack of Christian communication. We believe that you will be able to use the topics, not only as a basis for holding youth meetings, discussions, questionnaires, supplementing them with their experiences and material, but also to develop new on this model, it is vital for your needs of young people. The procedure for meetings on themes is offered free, you can vary it at your discretion. We pray that Christ, our faithful leader, sent the gaze of each of you, and you, in turn, could help you make your friends. May your work be blessed! "Be a model for faithful in the Word, in Life, in love, in the spirit, in faith, clean ... Do reading, instruction, teaching. Invincible into yourself and teaching; Execute sim constant: for, so do, and save yourself, and listening to you "(1 Tim. 4:12, 13, 16). We will be grateful for all the wishes, additions and ideas. Here we are always waiting for you: [Email Protected] With prayer, Youth Department Ead

Legend:

- M.olwola. Use the most different and unexpected approaches to prayer service. Prayer can become the strongest means of rapprochement of your group and spiritual increment. Here are some suggestions:

Prayer leader.

The presenter prays for the entire group or for each participant separately.

Prayer in a circle

Among the participants of the meeting are given gratitude or prayer requests and each in turn brings God a certain request.

Prayer - chain

The presenter begins prayer, and everything, in turn, without uttering "Amen", continue, complementing it. It may be prayers like glorification and prayer-petitions.

Prayer nearby

After having learned about desires, the participants in a circle pray for nearby.

Jewish prayer

Wishing famous God in prayer or summarizes requests. The rest of the choir will invade him with phrases facing God, for example, "Amen!", Or "Thank you for Jesus Christ" or "Thank you!" etc.

Mystery prayer friend

Participants write their prayer requests in the notes, subscribe and exchange them. During the week, they pray in these requests, and then at the next meeting will learn who was their secret prayer friend and what happened in the week.

Prayer Pop Corn

The idea is that prayers arbitrarily, incessant flow, each other, are pronounced by all those who wanted, albeit even twice the same participants. Upon completion of "Cotton", the manager utters "Amen".

Unified prayer

Every meeting you choose a common problem: one person or group, minister, region or the sphere of life and the whole group in unity during the week pray about it.

Prayer time

Determine the overall, most convenient time of prayer during the day or evening of your group. Remind with meetings about him and inspire the guys to pray.

Prayer change

Teach the guys to turn requests, even the most pressing, in gratitude. Consider that the prayer will sound for everything only praise God. Sometimes it is not easy, but you will feel the joy of this prayer.

Prayer chain

Distribute the time between the participants so that the whole day or day is covered by prayer. It will be for you a special experience.

Phone prayer

Choose a desiress (even from the senior members of the Church), which, for example, would have a permanent communication on a home or mobile phone and could "duty" on the "prayer telephone". It should be a person who guys trust. Consider that, if possible, you will pray together by phone or duty will support the prayer who called themselves.

Prayer stand

If you still do not have this, organize in the youth room or in the church's hall a prayer stand. Each approached, looking at this stand in the section: "God's answers" would see the mighty business of God in the lives of the guys from your church, besides, he could leave his needs in the section "Letters in the sky" for your church prayer group. Several practical advice: stand can be knocked down from the chipboard or make a piece of foam, then cover it with the matter (for example, dark blue), use the buttons to attach sheets with needs. There is another option - only answers to prayers are placed on the stand, and to collect needs a basket "Heavenly Mail". A more creative approach allows you to issue a stand in the form of an apple tree. Needs are placed on the half, where the leaves are depicted, and the answers are half with the ripe fruits depicted.

Prayer friend

Pray that the Lord gives you a prayer friend, such a person with whom you were frank and honest. Singing Use all possible resources for singing, musical meeting. Teach young people what music is the strongest means in attracting hearts for God. Study of Scripture P theme resolution Aim of the meeting

Questions, tests, questionnaires Discussions, discussion Missionary projects As a source of ideas on mission projects, use the "Starting Ideas" or other books, as well as sites: /Base/index.shtml. Homework Completion of the meeting

Can a kiss be considered a blud?

Question: Is it a kiss to consider for a blud or the manifestation of love to neighbor? What is your opinion in relation to this gesture? Thank you for your reply! If you are talking about an intimate breast kiss, my opinion is yes, you can consider it for a blud. But to better understand this topic, let's look at the Scriptures when the kiss is and is not a sin.

Kiss as a form of greeting is not a sin

Some books from the Bible end with certain greetings from the authors in which recipients are called upon to greet each other with a holy kiss. Welcome all your brethren. Welcome to each other with holy kissing. (1 Corinthians 16:20) Holy kissing in the form of a greeting is not a sin, but this is a manifestation of the love of Christ and relations of unity between believers. But this is only a greeting form and nothing more.

Marriage kiss

In the kiss between her husband and wife, which are in the marriage covenant, there is nothing immoral before God. The kiss refers to the intimate part of the relationship between two and marriage is a legitimate way, where they can rejoice in this intimacy in full and without restrictions on the part of God. But this does not apply to a kiss out of marriage.

Kiss out of marriage is a sin one can someone say that in the Bible we do not find a direct commandment that would say: "Kiss between a man and a woman who is married is prohibited." If we go this way, then we do not have a direct commandment and relative to drugs and smoking. But this does not mean that the Creator takes it. God left the commandments and the truths we can be guided to understand, is a kiss sin or not. Paul wrote a believer Corintha so: And what you wrote to me, then a good man does not concern women. But, in order to avoid a fucking, every His wife, and every Her husband. (1 Corinthians 7: 1-2) The touch that Paul speaks here does not mean to give a hand to a woman when she comes out of the car, or when you welcome the woman and hold out her hand, or when they randomly touch it. Here the touch is delivered in the context of Blud. That is, we are talking about intentional touch in order to incite the inner fire of the sexual direction. Therefore, the Bible prohibits a man touching a woman who is not his wife (in order to ignite the fire in it). And in this context, the kiss is included in the category of these touches. I heard young people who said: "And when we kiss, we have no bad thoughts, but only express feelings of each other." Or others say: "You can kiss, just do not let the thoughts go far, that is, to sexual desire." Maybe you read this statement and nod to the harmony. But see what God says : Can anyone take yourself a fire in the sinus, so as not to fire his dress? Can anyone walk on burning coal so as not to burn their feet? The same happens with those who enter their wife's neighbor: who will touch her, will not remain without guilt. (Solomon Proverbs 6: 27-29) From the above poems, we understand that it is impossible to play immorality with fire without burning in it. We also understand that you cannot kiss not having sinned with whom you are not in the marriage covenant. God did not create us with robots. He created us with feelings, reflexes and attractiveness. But we can enjoy them only within the framework established by God. Therefore, as a person, you can not program yourself, saying: "I kiss, but I don't think about a sexual response." God knows about it and that is why it gives the commandment: Youthful lusts run away, and hold on truth, faith, love, peace with all the urging gentlemen from the pure heart. (2 Timofey 2:22) The instruction is very clear and concrete - "Running youthful liness." You have no right to play with lust to see how long you can withstand. Do not consider yourself supercursed, thinking that you can kiss a girl or a guy and at the same time control the mind, lust, feelings and not sin. After all, on the other hand, God says: Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sits in the scornful, but the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night! (Psalm 1: 1-2) Why does God consider it important not to go to the Council of the wicked and not sit in the collection of depravants? Because he knows that there you can pass through my way of life, there may wake up in you lust, the replenishment of which will mean that you fell into sin. Similarly, with a kiss. Do not try to play with him, saying that it is only a manifestation of pure love between you and your girlfriend. It can be a very dangerous trap, which is very easy to get.

And I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman with a lust already committed to her with her in his heart. (Matthew 5:28) From here we understand that the adultery does not mean only a physical act, but it refers primarily to our mind or to our heart. When you wake someone in your heart, with whom you are not married, then it means, at the level of mind you make adultery. Now think if this is the case with a look, what can we say relative to the touchs that awaken feelings are stronger than the look? And the kiss is included in the category of intimate touches. Dear reader, if you want to rejoice at a real healthy relationship in your marriage, then I advise you to keep myself in holiness not only by the body, but also with all your creature. Do not hurry to bite off from what you are not allowed, but wait with patience before marriage. Satan says: "Now and here you have to taste the pleasures of this world." But God sees you and says: Waiting for the righteous - joy, and the hopes of the wicked will die. (Proverbs 10:28) Wait to give the kiss of your lips to the only person who will feel unique, knowing that you kept yourself for her!

What to do when your favorite girl refuses dates?

After the publication of the article "Dating and Happy Marriage", some offended guys wrote to me that the girls with whom they met so far, after reading the article refused to go on dates. Others asked how to do when they are in love with the girl, but it refuses to go on a date, and it makes them feel rejected and brings many suffering. Here I want to answer these questions and give advice to guys, whose girlfriends refused to go on dates.

1.Congratulations! You found a person with a solid character From the moment you got such an answer from your favorite girl, accepting my congratulations, because you found a person who has high moral values \u200b\u200band knows what he wants from life. There are very few such people in today's world. How now she can say "no" by dating, so in the future she can say "no" divorce, abortion, or when you already married and not bring the Lord, to happen some misfortune with you, she can say "no" anyone Who will give her the Council to leave you and find yourself another. If one day some kind of man will try to seduce her, this woman will know how to say no, because it will not be controlled by emotions and feelings, but on the contrary, will know how to restrain and control itself. In a word, this girl or a woman with a mature character and to make an offer of hand and hearts.

2.Abstinence from dates is not a rejection of your personality The fact that the girl you love has accepted this decision as a result of reading the article does not mean that it rejects you or her feelings for you. On the contrary, it is because she appreciates your feelings, a relationship with you and because the hanging grain will grow a beautiful and strong tree of love, she refuses meetings with you. I am absolutely what it is hard and for her, because she loves you, and she wants to spend a lot of time with you together, but as I wrote in the article "Dating and happy marriage", the fact that you will spend alone, will serve only The destruction of your relationship.

3. Abstinence from dates is a test for your character. The Bible speaks of a woman as a weak vessel in comparison with a man. The letters that I get, I saw that girls are asked to stop dating. We all know that girls and women appreciate the relationship more than men, and if the girl asked to stop dates, do not think that it was easy for her if she loves you truly. Her hardness is manifested in the fact that it returns reality, common sense and wisdom, and does not allow the Sebari of the ledged feelings, which, be sure, encourage walking on dates and day and night. If she, being a "intimid vessel," as the Bible calls her, can say "no" temptation to go on a date, then it is more waiting for your character hardness and wisdom. Give the proof of restraint and integrity, develop these qualities that you need as a future husband and Father.

4. Abstinence from dating testifies to real love My application may seem contradiction, but it is. If you truly love this girl, then you will make every effort to prepare for the creation of a family and then make an offer to this girl. If the girl refuses to meet, and you will find yourself another, which will agree to go on dates Is it proof that you never loved it really? Who loves truly, I am ready to wait long, for a very long time and God speaks in the Bible, that "Waiting for the righteous - joy, and the hopes of the wicked will perish" (Proverbs 10:28)

5. Use time to prepare a family If you love this girl and wish it to marry, use the time to develop the opportunity to keep your family. Each man must have a definite quality - contain your family and this is our responsibility - to contain and protect the family. Unfortunately, if you look around, you can see how few men who seriously perceived this responsibility. Such an ability to contain a family is very strongly associated with the quality of hard work, the desire to work. As well as any other quality, it can be developed. If you love a truly girl who does not want to walk on dates, then you will make every effort to increase your male strength to keep and protect the family. You will go to learn professions, you will find a job, you will learn how to work hard to maintain your family and do not agree to live on your parents. Thus, if you make a proposal to your girlfriend, and she wants to join you in the marriage covenant, will you be able to keep and protect the family? What is your ability now? Can you cope with your material needs? If not, then be grateful to the girl that she did not agree on dates with you, and then go and learn the profession, look for work and make every effort to develop these male qualities - to keep and protect the family. 6. God will save you and lead you a future wife if you truly love the girl, and she refuses to spend time with you on dates, then I think you are worried if another guy will not appear and will not make it an offer before you. If you think so, then make efforts to make it possible to prepare for marriage as soon as possible to be able to keep and protect your wife and children. If another guy still appears and makes her an offer, and she will accept it, then it means that you were not the chosen of her heart. If she loved you with the love you need to conclude a marriage covenant, she would not accept the offer of another man. Do not regret it, because you would not have full joy if you married. Do not worry, but do good and put hope for God, who said: House and estate - inheritance from parents, and a reasonable wife - from the Lord (Proverbs 19:14)

7. Learn moderation and abstinence Everything can spend time on dates, and only people restrained and solid people can refrain from them who can control their emotions and feelings. These are faithful people in which you can rely on, you can live life with such people. Those who cannot manage and restrain the feelings under the pretext that the "heart will not order" will also behave in marriage, when one day they will be carried away by the beauty or seduction of another woman. They will not be able to differently, because they did not learn to "order the heart" through the abstinence. Moderation and abstinence are part of the character when you take the Holy Spirit when concluding a covenant with God. Sacred Scriptch says: "The fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, goodness, mercy, faith, meekness, abstinence" (Galatians 5: 22-23) Acceptance of the Lord Jesus in the heart, and so you get the Holy Spirit to Then you could have moderation and abstinence. Do not go on dates, but use time for the development of male power to keep and protect the family. If you are already able to keep and protect family and children, and God gave you love for the girl you wish to take your wife, then you can go and make her an offer. Let God bless you!

3.Bear to God's things

How to find out each other if you refuse a date?

Question: Once I heard the transmission about the ratio about the marriage, which you led to the FM wagon radio. I was shocked when I heard that it was not good to walk on a date before marriage. But how then are young learn each other? I think that dates are also a very important thing before marriage.

What I spoke on the transfer on the radio, you can also find in the articles I put in this book. In these articles, I gave the definition of those dates, which are not good before marriage for young people. Here is my answer to a given question. So, how do young learn each other, if they go on dates before marriage?

1. The standard of man before marriage is very limited. When a girl or a guy wants to please someone opposite sex, they will do everything possible to make only good qualities of their character obvious or even try to show such qualities that they do not have, and thus deceive the partner. I heard so many times from people who come to ask for the Council of Family Affairs: "Never in life would have thought that my husband had such a character or that he could behave as he behaves now. He was the most attentive man before marriage. Why isn't he now? " The answer is very simple - because he has never been like that showed himself. He did it only to impress you and show you the qualities that you would like to see from him, but which he never had. Only in marriage you can see his true face. In fact, you can see him and now, if you won't go on dates, because ...

2. The beautiful character of a person can not stay in the shade. If you are such a person, then you will not stay unnoticed or unnoticed to those who want to conclude a marriage union with you. The beauty of your character will manifest yourself in your attitude towards people, to those you are not waiting for something in return, which you do not want to impress, but who want to help, serve. It is impossible to play a role with all people, wanting to show different qualities of the character, which you just do not have. Therefore, the values \u200b\u200bof people with a beautiful character. Your character will be seen by others as you will serve and readiness to serve people. Therefore…

3.Bear to God's things . In the first message to the Corinthians, the Apostle Paul writes the following:

... unmarried cares about the Lord, how to please the Lord to be sacred and body and spirit ...

I say it for your own use, not in order to impose a bond on you, but that you feel apart and incessantly serve the Lord without entertainment. (1 Corinthians 7:35)

It is the ministry to Lord and people will make the beauty of your character who will not remain in the shadows, but will be seen a man who will appreciate your character and make you an offer.

Let the Lord become you and give you the wisdom to understand these truths and trust all his will, because "Waiting for the righteous - joy, and the hope of the wicked will perish" (Proverbs 10:28)

Watching and happy marriage

There are many things in the life of people and peoples who become ordinary, but who are not correct. One of these things is a dating between guys and girls to marriage. Does it shock this expression? I have patience to read this article to the end and then make your own conclusions if you think that I am wrong.

Determining date

Before submitting their arguments, it is very important to define what kind of dates. In this article, under the word date, I will refer to the time when the guy and a girl, a man and a woman make a choice to constantly meet for communication, for a joint spending time in order to get to know each other. In most cases, these meetings are accompanied by touch and kisses and sometimes they can continue for a whole year. Dates are intimate character in the sense that a man and a woman, a guy and a girl prefer to be together, separate from all others. Dates are much more than a simple friendship, because very strong feelings are involved here and the desire to be next to another person. The definition of a date in this article does not speak about the time when guys and girls are in the same group, for example, in one school, in one class, in a university group, in one church or at work, or in any other circumstances where meets many people.

Why do you need to avoid dates?

Let's look at several motifs and arguments that will show us why it is right for young people to avoid dates and why this choice provides a happy and replenished marriage.

1.Dates are not approved by the Bible. Oddly enough, but the dates are not approved by the Bible. I did not find a single passage in the Bible, in which it would be said that a man or woman need to have a certain period of dates with a future husband or wife, when they learn each other better, etc. So people say, but it does not have a biblical foundation, and as we will see on, there has no positive effect on the knowledge of each other.

2. Dates awakens false and desires that not be replenished correctly except in marriage . One of the key phrases that is repeated in the song book song, says: I spell you, Dshshche Jerusalem, - Do not wake and disturb your beloved, did not want. (Song songs 8: 4)

Only the special feelings that you have to the opposite sex are able to motivate you to dates and to a joint pastime. If you are afraid of the Lord a man or a woman, then you will not allow adultery. But all the same condition when you are under pressure from burning sexual desires unpleasantly, and incorrectly in such a state. Permanent dates only awaken this condition and support it.

3. Dates make care and concern. In 1 Message to the Corinthians, the Apostle Paul writes: And I want you to be without worries. Non-native cares about the Lord, how to please the Lord; And married cares about the worldly how to please my wife. There is a difference between Marry and Device. (1karinfians 7: 32-33)

Paul does not speak here to be friendly and fulfill the needs of a marriage partner, but there is an exaggeration that shows them their egoistic desire to like another, but from personal interests, to get even more from him. Therefore, above in this passage, the author says that "having wives should be, as not having", in the sense of remaining fully dedicated to the Lord and treat his wife with wisdom. If you look carefully around, you will see that both guys and girls since the time they begin to meet or want to attract someone's attention, begin to do everything to like this person. And this is very big concerns and it is disagreeable to the Lord. He wishes us to be clean and without pretense, both in front of him and in front of people. Therefore, when two young people begin to meet, they come and called conflicts, misunderstandings, and it paralyzes both, or the smaller one of them, so it is not able to fulfill other duties, such as the spread of the Gospel, studies at school, work and etc.

4.Dates negatively affect your activities and your responsibilities.. Instead of being a busy gospel and your duties that you have at school or at work, your thoughts are busy all day by someone, or the words that you told or did not say that. You can't concentrate on learning, you do not want to go to work, and if you go, you work, without investing in this soul. Why not use all this time for good learning some profession to prepare a good foundation for your future family? If you meet, analyze yourself yourself - how it influenced your activities, for obligations. How will this affect your future family? Can you handle your duties if you are falling down instead of growing?

5.Dates are a stumbling block in the knowledge of the character of a person.Do not trust? Look carefully and judge. Did you pay attention to that since the dates began, you behave inaccier. You yourself became an unrivaled artist and start playing a play in which you want to show yourself good, the best. In most cases, your partner is also acting in the same way, if there is some feelings for you, because you want to please you. As you can see, so you can not recognize its true character. You would have seen anymore, watching him, without dating.

6.Dates are more destroyed than they create.When a man and a woman join the marriage union, both know that they have duties and they can not even allow the thoughts about divorce. When they are non-natives, during large conflicts, which are always a lot, the smaller thinking about what one of the partners thinks is to break the relationship. This thought will find a place in mind. When everything is fine, perhaps you get married, and then there will be difficult times that do not bypass the side of any pair and through which you need to go with wisdom and patience. There is a big danger that in these difficult times the idea of \u200b\u200bdivorce that began with the time of dates will begin to torment you. And if you could not resist the temptation to meet, then why do you think that they will resolve before the temptation of the divorce? Whether it is not better to initially take a firm decision to avoid dates and thoughts about divorce, and so you will perform verse in your life: Your heart is most stored, because of the sources of life (Proverbs 4:23)

7.Dates affect chastity. Guys and girls who begin to meet, begin to flirt, that is, doing something to attract the attention of the opposite sex and these actions also have sexual orientation. This is a game of words, gestures, etc., to which in most cases people resort unconsciously to attract the attention of the opposite sex. Such romantic games you must save for your future husband or wife. People walking on dates are beginning to flirt and are not intended to maintain chastity. This behavior turns into a habit, and then brings problems and regret. You confirm the chasteness by what you do not go on dates, and this is very valuable before God and people.

8.Dates wonder feeling. If the guy invites the girl on a date, but at the same time she does not ask her hands, he wures her feelings and misleads and bewilderment relative to its value in his eyes. If it comes to touch and kisses, the guy and the girl will want to complete satisfaction that can be experienced only in intimate relationships. But after all, only in marriage intimate relationships bring joy, otherwise the feeling of guilt and perfect meanness in relation to the other, especially for the girl. It will also bring big shame to them and their families. Reliable someone's sexual desires and be under this pressure for a long time - this state is wound off feelings. Therefore, it is not good to offer or agree on a date with the opposite sex before marriage.

9.Deans put you in danger zone . Long meetings, strong feelings, touch and then kisses once may lead to loss of control over themselves and to the Blud. The danger is great, and from the moment it happened, the consequences will be very large and grave. Conscience will condemn you, and you will not be able to rejoice in an intimate relationship in marriage who could have if they kept themselves before the wedding - until the day of the conclusion of the covenant before God.

10.Dates bring only evil.If you even meet only for communication, even if you have set up certain restrictions, the dates will make you only worse. Who will believe that there is no amoral relationship between you? Do not you see, what days do we live when intimate relationships start from the first date? Mirous people will think of the same thing about you, and you will spoil your name, partner, parents, churches and Jesus Christ, whose name you wear.

11.Dates negatively reflected on parents. From the moment when a date, which lasts for a long time, or when the guy changes girls every day, parents are constantly experiencing. They begin to expect everything anywhere from their child who meets with someone, and it brings them shame in front of the church and people. It's not good to disagree your parents. Choose it is better to have a holistic nature and keep clean your thoughts and things to have a happy marriage and bring all the joy and glory to God. Do not offer and do not take a date.

2. More and better

This method of studying the Bible helps children better understand the value of God's blessings.

Start the study of the Bible with the "Things" called "more and better." Divide your group on commands from four or five people and give each group a cans with soup. Tell me that they have 15 minutes to exchange their jar on something better and more. If the place of your meetings does not allow you to freely walk and bargain with each other, let one person from the group alone and ask to try to exchange it for something from other members of the group. After 15 minutes, compare "transactions" and declare which of them "more and better."

· Was it easy to exchange soup bank?

· Is Iaua easily to exchange your birthright for soup?

· What do you think, whether ISAV sorry ever about his decision? Explain.

· What kind of blessings teenagers can exchange for what they think will bring them happiness?

· Why do they refuse these blessings?

· Do you think they will regret it?

· How can God help you understand what to exchange, and what - to take care?

Complete everything with a brief "team" prayer, asking everyone to call something that he or she will be preserved and will offer God for His kingdom.

3. One body, many members

Use 1 Cor. 12: 12-31 to inspire everyone to the discussion about how individual talents can contribute to the Body of Christ.

For this event, you first need to create a sculpture from a variety of items. For example, you can use elements from LEGO sets, plasticine, wooden bars, paper, polychlorvinyl tubes, hangers, cardboard, paints, boxes or plastics. Then remove the resulting design and set the set of materials that you used to create it. Divide the class into groups of four people and give each member of the group of your role of any part of the body: eyes, ears, legs or hands. Then collect all the eyes from each group in one corner of the room, ears - in another, etc. Use the following rules to create sculptures similar to yours:

1) Only eyes can directly see your sculpture.

2) Eyes describe the ears what they see.

3) Ears tell the legs that heard.

4) legs collect all the necessary materials and talk about the heard hands.

5) Hands create a design according to the information received.

Let the information transmits so many times as necessary to complete the sculpture. When the groups completed their designs, show your design sample design and discuss the following:

· How does your sculpture differ from the designs of everyone else?

· Would you create the same design, if there were no ear in your group, eyes, etc.?

· Why did the Apostle Paul chose a human body as an illustration of the role of every person in the church?

· What can you rely on others in the church?

· What can the church rely on you?

· What are you part of the Body of Christ?

Complete everything with a prayer - ask God to conduct everyone in the definition of it or its part in the Body of Christ.

4. Warning labels

Use silly warning labels to inspire adolescents to think about their dedication to Christ.

Look for examples of stupid, but really existing warning labels on the Internet. Make a list and distribute it to your students. Then you will see a little over what stupas should be people to be able to warn about such obvious things. Ask:

· What do you think, why do these products have such stupid warnings?

· If the warning label would you wear, what would be written there?

Let the three-four person groups read the following passages together: LC. 9: 23-27; 9: 57-62 and 18: 18-30. Ask:

· What, as Jesus says in these verses, maybe you will have to leave for him?

· When people decide to follow Jesus, why can they sometimes not even think about what it may have to pay?

· Were you surprised what you had to sacrifice because of your dedication to Christ?

Give students on a piece of paper and ask:

· If Christianity had a warning label, what would be written on it?

Then let each student draw a cross and add its warning label.

5. Rules and power - so what?

Use the game without rules to help youth understand why the rules are so important.

Let the guys unite into groups of four to six people, and give each group a board game. Tell me everyone that the game has one rule: no rules and no one. After about 10 minutes of the group, the following questions should be discussed:

· How does the game change if there are no rules?

· Why do you think there are rules in general?

· What rules protect us?

· Do you obey these rules?

· What do you do when you don't like some rule?

Consider loud Rome. 13: 1-7. Then let the groups discuss the following questions:

· Whether this passage changes your idea of \u200b\u200bthe rules and authorities? Why?

· In what situations do you have complex relationships with the authorities?

· How can we help each other in these difficulties? How can God help?

Complete everything with prayer - ask the guys to pray for individual power of pre-war people, for a healthy attitude towards these people and for the permission of difficulties with the authorities.

6. Promises for bricks

Use bricks to illustrate how, holding your burden, we can build a barrier among themselves and God.

Ask:

· Because of what people are usually worried?

· What methods do they usually apply to fight anxiety?

Let students be grouped into pairs or three and read 1 PT. 5: 7 and PS. 55:22. Ask:

· Did you have that by giving your stress to God, then you again experienced him? Explain.

· Why so often we are unable to completely give their concerns to God, despite God's promises?

· What special steps can we help us?

· How do these burden build a barrier between us and God?

· How does God use our Bremen in order to bring us to themselves?

7. Serving others, serve God

Prepare your group to the project for serving or missionary travel, using training based on the Gospel of John 13.

You will need a canvas, scotch, acrylic paint, soap water, clean water, towels, CDs with a record of Third Day "City On a Hill" and a CD player.

· What did you feel when you wash your hand? When did you wash your hand to your hand?

· How is the left imprint on the canvas look like your participation on the trip?

Let the troops read the PS. 123: 1, MF. 25:40, count 3:23. Ask:

· How do you do with your own hands, reflects God's love?

· How do you serve God, serving others?

· What do you hope to give and get during this missionary trip?

Complete everything by listening to the song "City On A Hill" and pray for yourself.

· Was there any team stronger than another?

· What did you feel when another team had the opportunity to throw balls in you? Explain.

· What helped you to unite in this battle?

Read 2 Cor. 10: 3-5. Then ask:

9. Biblical

Use rogue characters from the Bible in the game to "stay alive" to learn about the unconditional love of Christ.

To do this, study the Bible you need to create a card with information for each person from your group. Use the Bible to find people who could be perceived as expensive: lepers, collector, blind, relaxed, shepherd, Roman centurion, fisherman, prophet or demonstrated by demons. Write for each brief information explaining why he could be considered an outcast. Distribute these cards to students.

Let everyone sit in a circle and talk on behalf of their character about who they are. Then let everyone write on a piece of paper of the character he or she would like to exclude from the game on the basis of their smallest benefits for society. Between the Rounds of Voting, let the "survivor" prove, why they must be left in the group. When four people remain, allow the "outcasts" to vote for the winner.

After the game, read out loud MF. 5: 1-12. Discuss the following questions:

· How do you think I would look at our "rogue" Jesus?

· How would you explain - what is the unconditional love?

· How important is your appearance or social status for you or your friends?

· What is the difference in what they look at us, from how God see us?

10. Fast Food Lessons

Turn the snack in the fast food cafe to an instructive example for members of your youth group.

For Sunday study, the Bible is reduced to the breakfast group in the cafe. Go to Fast Food, where there is a 24-hour window through which you can buy everything without leaving the car. When you all choose, arrange a group in a cozy corner to start learning the Scripture. First ask the guys like what happens before the distribution window can describe their way of faith (for example, you sometimes have to wait or in the menu there is no what you want).

Discuss the following questions using the corresponding Scriptures when answering:

· Why "Waiting" is so important in your way of faith? (Ps. 24: 5; 26:14; 39: 1-3; Is. 30:18; FLP. 3:20)

· What do you do when you want an "missing menu"? How do you oppose or accept God's plan? (Ier. 29:11)

· How do you understand what God wants to tell you? How do you communicate with God? How does God communicate with you? (2 pairs. 7:14; Ier. 33: 3 and 1 Cor. 2: 9-10)

· What "Exchange" do you exercise faith in your path? What do you give God? What did Christ pay for and what did you get in exchange? (Jac. 2:18 and 1 in. 2: 2)

11. Bible and Salochk

Do not miss the opportunity during the next game in the "Salochki" in the fresh air with flashlights - add an instructive moment!

You will need the Bible with Concordance Paper and Pens or Pencils.

Your groups can be born such ideas:

· Darkness (Ps. 17:29) - God is with us not only in good times (in the light), but also in bad (in darkness).

· Fear (Ps. 26: 1) - When we remember the salvation promised by God, we do not need to be afraid of anything.

· Hiding (Matt. 5:14:16) - We should never hide their faith from the world.

After all members of the group shake with each other with their thoughts, discuss the following:

· How does the game in the setting in the dark on your walking in faith?

· What place the Scripture from the read has become the most inspiring for you? Explain.

· How can you use the Bible as a weapon against sin and evil?

12. Look for and clothe

(Especially effectively in working with the guys of medium-sized adolescence)

This is a quick mass game in the shopping center - a fun way to learn the Bible and makes a new meaning in the quest game.

Create a command of two or three guys. Then take the six adult voluntary helpers with some distinctive features that you can quickly see. Ask each of the adults to choose a favorite biblical verse, which they will share with adolescents. For these "distinctive features" you can use the following suggestions:

· Man sitting on the phone book (Ps. 104: 1-2)

· Man with coins sticking with scotch tape to the sole of shoes (1 Tim 6: 6-10)

· Man with dark plaster on foot (Is. 35: 3-6).

· Man in glasses (Heb. 11: 1)

· Man with a torn part of the pantna (Proverb. 4: 11-12)

· Man with a torn sideways, bowed on the head (1 Cor. 1: 27-28)

Ask volunteers to disperse on the shopping center (only without going to the shops) and change the place after anyone finds them. When the team finds this volunteer, an adult tells them their verse.

· How does this game look like your way of faith?

· What biblical verse is most of all for you and why?

· Do you throw a kind of call you chosen verse? Explain.

We were so fun that somewhat passing by teenagers stopped seeing what we do, and, in the end, joined our game!

13. Sermon with packages

This is a great way to encourage children to "eat" in the Bible and use your creative abilities.

Let your youth group be divided into four to six people team. Give each team with three-four diverse objects (old keys, spoons, chips, hockey washers, lipstick, staplers or unusual vegetables). The more strange it is these items, the better! Tell the teams that they have 15-20 minutes to come up with a sermon based on the content of their packages. The rules are as follows:

· In the sermons there should be three items, each of which is based on any subject from their package;

· The sermon must be at least three minutes;

· In the sermons should be used by Scripture;

· The sermon should include one creative element - for example, a scene, a song or poem;

· Every member of the team should participate.

Our guys prepared cheerful, creative and very deep sermons ... It was amazing!

14. Jesus in me

This study of the Bible will help your adolescents to think and understand what it means to express their identity through Jesus.

You will need the Bible, newsprint, markers, scissors and tape.

Draw an outline of one of the adolescents on newspaper paper, cut out and stick on the wall. Ask the children to write words on this clipping that describe appearance, attitude and actions of a typical teenager.

Then ask the guys to list the spiritual characteristics on it, which would be a teenager if he had or her relationship with Jesus. Let teenagers discuss the following questions:

· Why is it harder to describe spiritual characteristics?

· What do you think, what words would God use to describe a teenager?

Separate children into groups of three or four people. Let each group outlines the outlines of someone from his team and cut out this outline. Give each of the groups one of the following passages: Eph. 1: 1-12; 1: 13-23; 2: 4-10 and 2: 19-22. Suppose from above on its clipping group a link to your biblical passage.

Tell me: Read your passage and carefully listen to the characteristics of those who have a relationship with Jesus. Decorate your clipping pictures and words that symbolize the characteristics reflected in the passage. When everyone is ready, ask groups to explain their tenderloin and what they drew or wrote on them. Then let me stick your clippings on the wall. Ask:

· Why is it important to know who we are spiritually?

· How can I look at yourself through Jesus to influence the way you act or think?

Let the volunteer read Rome. 12: 5-21. Ask:

· What does it mean: "good deeds"?

· What does it mean: to be saved grace, not good deeds?

Tell me: There are many ways to say who we are in Jesus. These tenderlook serve as a reminder that each of us is a special creation of God, who has identified and what we will, and what characteristics we will have: and typical, and spiritual.

15. Lick Jesus

With this lesson, the guys think about Jesus and search in Scripture an indication on how he could look in reality.

Before the meeting, find about a dozen or more paintings with Jesus. Be sure to take portraits depicting it to beware, blue-eyed and neat looking. On the Internet you can find hundreds of pictures. For example, go to the WWW website. In the "Arts & Images" section, where you will see links to a variety of sites. Or enter into any search engine, such as Google, "Images of Jesus Christ".

Attach portraits on the walls of your room. When teenagers come, let them take it carefully to consider all the pictures. Then collect them to discuss how Jesus really looked. Use this opportunity to operate the real world through the Bible, in which Jesus grew up. Ask:

· Do you think all right in these pictures depicting Jesus? Why?

Tell me: We do not know how Jesus looked; At that time there were no cameras, no one wrote his portrait, and the authors of the Gospel did not give a description of his appearance. However, as we with you, Jesus had a face and body formed by his heredity and life. Let's see what instructions we can find in Scripture.

Read out loud. 1: 26-32. Ask:

· How did Jesus's heredity influenced the color of his skin, figure and general view?

Read the MF. 2: 19-23. Ask:

· Jesus grew up in a small town of Nazareth; How did it affect his player to behave and appearance?

Read out loud MK. 6: 1-4. Ask:

· How years of carpentry affected Jesus?

Read out loud. 53: 1-3. Tell me: From the early days of Christianity, these words were interpreted as belonging to Jesus. Ask:

· Are you surprised by this description? Why?

· Do you think it is only about the disfigured mind because of suffering or can you imagine that in life Jesus could look like ordinary or even ugly? Explain.

· If you watched Jesus's eyes, what do you think you see there?

· Does your idea of \u200b\u200bChrist affect your attitude towards him? Why?

16. Odar

In this study of the Bible based on 1 Corinthians 12, show children that each of them has a unique, god a role as a member of the Body of Christ.

Let the guys are divided into groups of five people. Give each group of marshmallows and toothpicks. In another room or just where they do not see, put the model from the zephyrian and toothpicks. Each member of the group has only one role. These roles are distributed like this:

Player 1 - can only use my right hand and can only take toothpicks.

Player 2 - can only use left hand and can only take toothpicks.

Player 3 - can only use my right hand and can only take a marshmallow.

Player 4 - can only use left hand and can only take a marshmallow.

Player 5 is a runner, the only person who can see the model and speak. He or she instructs all other members of the group in designing a copy of the model. This man can not touch anything.

Follow the execution of all these rules, especially the rules on silence.

After that, let the guys respond to the following questions:

· Have each have the same duties in this game or did anyone have a more important role? Why?

· Have you been the obligations equally difficult or some role was more difficult? Why?

Read 1 Cor. 12, then ask:

· What spiritual gifts seem less important to us? Why?

· Why is it often difficult to work with people whose gifts differ from yours?

· Why does God insist on the fact that it is important to respect the differences?

· What a spiritual gift from those listed in 1 Cor. 12 best reflects one of your spiritual gifts?

· How do you practice this gift?

17. Vera will find!

Use this version of the game "I'm looking for" to introduce adolescents in the study of the Bible about the misfortune of God.

For this event, select a living room or meeting room, in which many baubles, pictures or decorations. Choose a dozen items that can be easily hidden in the room (place the toothpick in the picture frame; a transparent glass ball is on the bottom of the glass; to tie a thread to the lamp to the lamp, one color with him, etc.).

Let the guys break into the pairs, and give each pair a list of items. Give children to understand that all things are in sight, but they are not so easy to notice. Set the time limit and ask for pairs to celebrate all the items found. When time expires, ask:

· How difficult to find hidden items?

· If you did not have a list, it would be difficult to find all hidden?

Read out loud. 11: 9-13. Ask:

· If God wants to be looking for and found, why is this search often so difficult?

· What from the "checklist" can we use to search for God?

· Compared with the efforts that you attach in other areas of your life, how much energy do you invest in the search of God?

· Bring an example, what did you recently find God in your life?

18. Big picture

Most teenagers know many separate biblical stories, but there are no idea what chronological order they occurred or how they are consistent with each other. This game will help you place everything in our places.

Choose 20-40 biblical events and ask teenagers to come up with newspaper headlines. For example, the headline about Noah and the ark may sound like this: "The one hundred percent probability of rain. A local resident is building a boat. " The title about the Babylonian tower may look like this: "The construction of the tower is frozen - communication stopped."

Let the guys write or printed every headline on a separate sheet of paper. If you have any graphic editor, let the guys experiment with different fonts, flowers, pictures "Clipart", etc. Collect headlines and divide everyone into groups of three people. Give each group several headlines, and then ask the guys to answer the following questions:

· What a story is hiding behind this headline - what are people and events?

· Where does this story occur in the Bible and when did it happen?

· What does this biblical event tell us about God and his redemption for all people?

· If you have time, write the introductory paragraph corresponding to the header.

After all the groups are finished, collect everyone together and ask the representative from each group to read the answers out loud. Then spend the discussion about the chronology of biblical stories.

At the end, hang headings on the wall in chronological order. This is a quick way to help children make a biblical painting review. We spent it with most of the Old Testament stories - about 35 - and they discussed them all less than an hour.

19. In Focus - Vera

Help the guys understand that their faith in God is something specific, and not some abstraction.

For each person it will take a little mass for the modeling, which dries when drying it (if you do not have it, take foil or ask children to find something that expresses their faith).

If you have a big group, scroll it into small groups no more than seven people. Give each little mass for modeling. Tell me that they have five minutes to make something that represents their faith. It can be anything - something abstract or real. For example, the cross can represent the dying Christ, or the child's figure can show faith, similar to the nursery. Install the quiet and concentrated atmosphere so that everyone can focus.

Five minutes later, let everything in a circle speak, told that they were blinded and as it represents their faith.

Discuss the Bible and ask volunteers to read out loud of Heb. 11. Then set the following questions:

· What is the most difficult thing in the modeling of the subject representing your faith?

· When do you think about your faith, what are you sure?

· This head of Scripture talks about faith as something that we do not need to see. However, how can we "see" it?

· Give some examples of the fact that great men and women of the Bible did in faith. How could they make it? In whom did they believed their faith? Why is the object of faith so important?

· How can you describe faith in one word?

Complete the prayer by pronouncing separate words of gratitude and praise. Let the children take their creations home so that they remind them of their faith and the object of their faith.
