This Week #3-18

We had an awesome week in OFF ROAD as we took a little bit of a break from the normal schedule and just used our time to pray for each other. Many students were brave enough to share their heartfelt concerns and we were able to just lift each other up in prayer… It was AWESOME!! We also started a new series titled, “Shift.” Over the next few weeks we will be looking through the book of Jonah to see what God has in store for us. The contents of the series will involve shifts that we need to make in our lives. This first week simply looked at Jonah 1:1-3= God tells Jonah to GO and SPREAD HIS MESSAGE and Jonah says, “NO.” We examined how God has called each of us to spread His message and we too have the choice to either do what God sees as important or to be a “Jonah.” The shift that we need to make is: We need to shift to doing what God sees as important.

Questions to ask your child this week:

• What direction are you heading (are you doing what God has asked, running away or standing still)?
• How have you been a messenger of Christ this month?
• What areas of your life do you think you need to turn around and head towards God?
• When is it hardest to obey God? Why?
• How are you like Jonah?
• How are you not like Jonah?
• How can you shift to making what God sees as important, important in your life?
