YOUTUBE DISCUSSION

 

Unexpected Friends

Video:
http://goo.gl/8pNpO

Topic:
Friendship

Bible:
Colossians 3:12-14

Discussion Starter:
I bet you thought this was a special effects prank! But if you look at the authors YouTube channel you’ll see that this is really happening on her back porch in Alaska.

On the one hand, we can see how this unlikely friendship could quickly end in someone becoming a meal. But on the other hand, the unlikelihood of their friendship is amazingly fun.

As we think about the people in our lives we can admire this odd animal friendship in Alaska and have hope that it really is possible to live at peace with anyone. Paul writes in Colossians 3, “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” Love and forgiveness make all types of relationships possible in Christ! Imagine what your school would be like if all of the eagles, foxes, and cats got along?

3 Questions:

  1. If a cat, eagle, and fox were to get into a fight, who do you think would win?
  2. Which one of those animals do you associate with the most? Why?
  3. Have you ever helped make peace between two people who didn’t get along?

Chew on this: 
If it’s possible, in Christ, to live at peace with anyone. Than why don’t churches get along better?

YOUTUBE DISCUSSION

Look mom, no brakes!

 

No Brakes

Video:
http://goo.gl/7XoV6

Topic:
Release control

Bible:
1 John 4:18

Discussion Starter:
Watch this video twice. The second time, keep your eyes on the bikers hands and notice how rarely he uses the brakes.

This amazing ride wouldn’t be any fun if the biker didn’t let go of the brake and trust his life to his skills and equipment. He had to push doubt and fear away in order to lean into the adventure and challenge before him.

This ride is a lot like our walk with Jesus. We can put the brakes on, allowing fear and doubt to hold us back from our potential. Or we can put our trust fully in Christ and, as 1 John 4:18 says, “perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.”

3 Questions:

  1. Which is worse, falling on those rocks or falling off the cliff?
  2. Would you rather be in control or out of control?
  3. What are some areas you see people apply the brakes to their life with Christ?

Chew on this:  
If Jesus wants our life to lack fear and doubt, why do parents always tell us to be careful?
