First Priority EPIC Stories Leader GuideSample

LEADER TIPS

Have someone welcome, pray, watch the video, read the verses, lead conversation questions, and pray for your group. 

You can also lead a game or ice breaker if you would like. 

Today is all about having conversations to help others get connected into community. So create a safe and welcoming environment for everyone to do that. 

Feel free to share about your youth group and give others the opportunity to share with the group as a whole. This is a good time to get to know everyone better and ask how you can help them get connected into a faith community. 

Get in smaller groups of 3-5 if you need to.

1. What makes you feel most connected to the people around you?

2. Why is connection important?

3. Do you feel connected spiritually to God?

4. Would you like to get more connected with God, FP, or a youth group? Or maybe just need a friend?
