We have a wonderful group of 8th graders attending our Sunday School class. This blog attempts to capture what we do in class and hopefully some of their comments along the way.

Friends and Decisions

I gave each of the kids a note card with a question on it that they might have recieved from a friend or ones that were likely to come from that age group. They were then asked to right down three responses to the questions, as if they were giving the advice to the friend.

The questions on the cards were;

1. I think I am fat
2. I do not think i am very attractive
3. I think my parents are getting a divorce
4. My boyfriend/girlfriend wants to DO more
5. My friend wants to cheat off of my homework
6. My friends want me to drink alcohol at the party
7. All of the news about shootings is scarry

I supported the answer they gave with the following scripture versus;

FORNICATION?
1 Corinthians 6:18-20 & 1 Corinthians 7:1-2
; 1 Thessalonians 5:22-23:

Shootings
2 Timothy 3:1-4: (KJV) Luke 17: 26-30:

Drinking –
Proverbs 20:1 (KJV 1 Cor 6:19-20

Peacemaker –
Matthew 5:9:

Cheating = stealing
James 4:17 ESV

Depression
