Hello! We just finished our four-lesson study on what Jesus had to say about our stuff. This week, the lesson was titled “God’s Stuff, Not Ours.” In this lesson, we helped students learn that we have to learn to see our stuff as God’s, not ours, to be used as He sees fit, and we challenged them to commit to viewing all their possessions with a spirit of sacrifice, understanding that we only have what we have because God chose to give it to them.
We looked at the following Scripture passage:
- Mark 12:41-44
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 to get really possessive about our stuff?
- Why is it so important in your mind for us to see our stuff as God’s to do with as He pleases?
- Is there anything we own that could do more for God’s Kingdom than it is for us? What would it take for us to donate or otherwise do without to see people know God in a better way?
