Hello! We just finished the third of four lessons on what Jesus had to say about our stuff. This week, the lesson was titled “Less Is More.” In this lesson, we helped students learn no that matter how much stuff we have, it doesn’t add any real meaning to our life, and we challenged them to accept the challenge to see what stuff they can do without and consider donating it to someone who is needy.
We looked at the following Scripture passage:
- Luke 12:13-21
Next Steps...
During the next week as you have time to talk with your teenager, remember that one way that will help him or her to understand and apply what he or she has learned is to explain it to someone else. Use the following questions to guide your conversation:
- Why is it easy for us to get caught up in the lie that more stuff equals a more fulfilling life?
- Where in the world around us do you see this message being pushed?
- As a family, do we have a tendency to fall into this trap? Or do you think we handle it pretty well?
- Jesus is the only eternally lasting and eternally meaningful thing in our lives. How are you doing in your relationship with Him? Do you feel pretty close to Him right now? Or a little distant? Can I help you with anything?
