SESSION GOAL:
Help students consider what it means to follow Jesus and the obstacles that may stand in their way.

SESSION OBJECTIVES:
By the end of this session, the students will:
• Know the obstacle between the rich young ruler and his ability to follow Jesus.
• Identify obstacles that may trip them up in their relationship with Jesus.
• Have the opportunity to commit or re-commit their life to Jesus or ask Jesus for help in certain aspects of their life.

MATERIALS NEEDED AND ADVANCE PREPARATION:
1 Set up an obstacle course for students to go through—preferably outside. If you can’t do it outside, find a space in your church in which to build it.
Materials to use could include boxes, old tires, sturdy furniture, ropes.
You will also need blindfolds for each student.
2 Slips of paper and pens
3 Set up a small worship center with a candle and wooden cross. The cross should be large enough for students to hammer their slips of paper onto it.
4 Hammer and small nails (one per student)
5 Dry erase board, chalkboard or newsprint and marker
6 Background music for the worship time
