St John 3:17

Preteens, you can have great conversations with your family about following Jesus and getting baptized! This plan has videos and questions to help start an open conversation with your family. If you want additional support, invite your youth pastor or another church leader to do this plan with you, too. This plan is modeled to help you and your family process information, ideas, doubts, and beliefs surrounding Jesus.

Every good story has a plot twist—an unexpected moment that changes everything. One of the biggest plot twists in the Bible is the Christmas story. Over the next five days, we’ll explore how this one event changed the world and how it can change your life today.

All of us need forgiveness. But too often we treat forgiveness like it’s optional, when in reality, it’s a prerequisite to grow in our faith. In this 5-day Plan, we’ll discover hope and truth from different biblical accounts about forgiveness as we receive it for ourselves and extend it to others.

Empathy allows us to perceive the needs of others, and bring hope and relief into their lives. Often, we can struggle with how to display empathy. Fortunately, we have a great example: in this Plan. We’ll look at what the Bible has to say about empathy, and how we can grow in ours in order to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
