Tell you own story first and then invite students to tell theirs. CONNECT: (2 minutes) Say: We all do stupid stuff or make embarrassing mistakes.

They’d been friends and together nearly every day for three years, and yet he said he didn’t know his friend. Let’s see what happened. EXPLORE THE BIBLE: (10 minutes) Ask for volunteers to read the scripture passage in Luke 22:54-62. Divide the passage so you have a narrator, servant girl, second bystander, third bystander, and Peter reading their parts. After the scripture has been read, divide into groups of 3-4 students and assign each group the same questions: What’s up with Peter? Why did he deny knowing Jesus? Has he always been a coward? Bring the group together to discuss the answers, then discuss the following questions in the large group: What do you think was in Jesus’ eyes when he looked at Peter? How do you think Peter felt when Jesus looked at him? Share a mini-lecture with students from the Insights into Scripture. Continued... |
