EXPLORE THE BIBLE: (20–30 minutes)
Hand out the paper and pencils to students. Ask students to close their eyes as you cue up the first scene. Put the cloth over the screen. Play the scene, and ask students to write down the sounds they are hearing. Repeat the process with the next two scenes.
Read the crucifixion story from Luke 23:26-56.
Say: You’ve heard the story, and you’ve heard sounds that related to the story. What are the feelings, emotions and events going on here? What are the sounds that you AREN’T hearing? (For example, do you hear anyone come to Jesus’ rescue?)
Say: You’ve heard the sounds of a lot of pain, grief and torture. Why did this story happen? What was Jesus’ motivation to go through this?
Refer students to John 3:16 to help answer the question of Jesus’ reason for doing this.

APPLY: (5–7 minutes)
Ask students to take some time to think about the most significant sounds in their life, and to write them down on their paper. Assure them that this is for their own reflection and they will not be required to share it with the class. When students are done, ask them to evaluate their lists—are the sounds those of love, disagreement, depression, joy, excitement, grief, happiness, frustration? Are there sounds that represents sins in their lives?
