Most Christian teens want to follow Jesus wholeheartedly but it’s not always obvious how to obey His teachings in their hyper-paced, tech-driven world. Now youth leaders can help students connect Jesus’s teachings with their everyday lives of school, family, activities, and church with the newest Uncommon Bible study. Youth-ministry veteran Jim Burns has developed Living Out Jesus’ Teachings to equip leaders with the tools they need to start effective conversations and build supportive peer community. Using action-packed, fun activities and indispensable tips for guiding dialog, youth ministers will have their teens talking, thinking, and praying in no time about how they can follow Jesus in their priorities, motives, and decisions.Electronic pdf files of each session's reproducible student handouts are available for download.

In recent years, movie goers have been taken back to the beginnings of nearly every modern action hero: Batman, Spider-Man, James Bond, and Iron Man, just to name a few. Our fascination with these heroes' origins are a reflection of our longing to know where we came from and why we are the way we are. With The Old Testament, you can share with teens their own origin story and help them make sense of their world and themselves. These 12 sessions of youth-friendly Bible study will introduce your students to the God who keeps His promises, works miracles, and forgives His people when they make terrible choices, helping them understand the physical and spiritual history of our human family. And when they meet Adam and Eve, Samuel, Job, Esther, Daniel, and many more biblical characters, your students will get to know the real heroes of the faith.Downloads for reproducible student handouts for every session are available.
