| SESSION OUTLINE FOCUS: (5–10 minutes) Before the youth arrive, tape the picture of Jesus to the dartboard and put the construction paper over it. When the youth arrive, hand out the 3 x 5 papers and pens to the students. Tell them to write down a name of someone they know that they dislike or have a hard time getting along with. After they’ve written the names, ask them to tape their paper to the construction paper with the name on the inside so others can’t see who they wrote down. When all the pieces of paper are taped on the board, instruct students to take turns throwing the darts, telling them to try to hit their piece of paper. After everyone has had several chances to throw the darts, ask them to sit down. CONNECT: (3–5 minutes) Remove the construction paper to reveal the picture of Jesus. Allow students to study the picture of Jesus. Ask: How do you feel? Would you have been willing to throw the darts at the picture of Jesus if you’d seen it earlier? Why or why not? Ask students: Why do you think I “tricked” you like this? What was the point of this exercise? (To illustrate the point that the way we treat others is the way we treat Jesus, and the way we treat Jesus is the way we should treat others.) Place the construction paper with the students’ slips of paper back over the picture of Jesus. Transition Statement: “We have a very interesting story today. It’s an Old Testament story about when the enemies of Israel were treated as Christ would want them to be treated.” Continued... |
