LAST WEEK
Our small groups finished their three-week series on “Dangerous People” by talking about the Apostle Peter. He witnessed numerous miracles during Jesus’ ministry. In Matthew 14, we saw how he boldly obeyed Jesus’ invitation to leave the boat in the middle of a storm-and walk on water. Peter’s willingness to take a step of faith and walk on water transformed him from an observer into a participant. God desires us to know and observe his power, but he also wants us to experience it by taking bold steps of faith.
Faith is belief followed by action. Peter knew Jesus was the Lord, but it was his faith that got him to step out of the boat and trust his life to Jesus. Many of our students already believe Jesus is their Savior and have chosen to follow him. Our focus this week was challenging our teenagers to think of ways they can put their faith into action through bold steps of obedience.
Here are some questions you could use to fuel conversation with your teenager about this week’s lesson.
- Why do you think only Peter left the boat and walked on water? Why didn’t the other disciples join him?
- How would you define a “step of faith”? What does that phrase mean?
- Why is it important to focus our attention on Jesus in the middle of tough situations-or when we’re taking a big step of faith?
- What is one bold step of faith you sense God asking you to take? Are you willing to obey, or do you need extra courage from Jesus?
Thanks for all your prayers for our students and our ministry. Have a great week!
