Each lesson is 50% reading the Bible/teaching and 50% student discussion. They’re not 90% teaching and 10% discussion, like other youth ministry series and small group studies you’ll find elsewhere. The goal is for students to talk about the Bible, what it means to follow Jesus, their questions and doubts, what God is doing in their lives, and so on. This format encourages group interaction, personal application, and keeps students engaged. Getting students talking about their faith is the secret sauce to a small group, and all our series are formatted with that goal in mind.  The format is simple, but effective:  Read a passage of Scripture Make a point that students will remember  Ask questions and discuss it Repeat 3-4 times per lesson TWO KEY COMPONENTS Our small group series format helps students become Biblically rooted and gives them the opportunity to form God-centered relationships. 1. Biblically Rooted The Bible, like the roots of a tree, brings life, nourishment, and stability to the lives of students. Scripture deepens their relationship with God, gives them the wisdom to make good decisions, brings clarity to the problems they face, and so much more. In each small group series, students dive deep into a book of the Bible, which will firmly root them in God’s Word and provide a foundation to build their lives upon. 2. God-Centered Relationships
 These small group series provide students an opportunity to develop God-centered relationships with others. As we read throughout the New Testament, discipleship happens in the context of relationships. The goal is to create an environment where students know others and are known; accept others and are accepted; love others and are loved; and pray for others and are prayed for. We’re intentional about helping them grow in their relationship with God and others.
