“For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and He died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for Him who for their sake died and was raised” (2 Cor. 5:14–15).

Christ’s action to save us on the cross informs the way we view our vocations. This series of Bible studies helps parents or youth group leaders lead their teens in discussions about Christian living and God’s calling for them in their daily lives.

Each set of studies has four sessions — meant to be used over four weeks — on each topic. The studies ask participants to ponder Scripture verses and consider a set of questions along with possible ways to practice the discipline discussed.

The series includes:

  • “Pray”
  • “Meditate on God’s Word”
  • “Forgive As I Have Been Forgiven”
  • “Wait on the Lord”
  • “Be Welcoming”
  • “Be Generous”
  • “Share the Faith”
  • “Encourage Other Believers”
  • “Praise and Give Thanks”

The handouts are intended to be used directly by the leader and each teen.
