| EXPLORE THE BIBLE: (15–20 minutes) Ask students to open their Bibles to Philippians 3:1-11. Read it together, then ask for students to summarize what they think the passage is saying. Pair off the students and hand out the worksheets and pens. Ask them to answer questions 1-6. Bring students back together and discuss their answers. APPLY: (10–15 minutes) Display all collages so everyone can see them (on the wall, floor, or table.) Ask students to study each collage and choose three items that they are the most tempted to put their trust in for their own sense of value and security. Share with the group. Divide into groups of 3-4 and give each group a marker and newsprint. Ask each group to imagine what Paul might say to them, and to put it into a letter similar to the one he wrote to the Philippians. Share letters with the group. RESPOND: (5–10 minutes) Make sure each student has a Bible, and ask them to quietly read Philippians 3:7-11 and reflect on it for themselves. If time permits, let students go outdoors or to other parts of the church to a space alone to read and reflect on these verses. When students return, close with a prayer together. Continued... |
