Here's our Discussion Questions from Wednesday night 2/25/26
Just for Fun…
  • If you replace every single component of a ship over time, is it still the same ship?
  • If you had to choose between remembering your past or being able to make new memories in the future, which would you choose?
Thinking Deeper…
  • Read Isaiah 20:1-5 together.
  • Isaiah obeyed God even though the command probably felt confusing and embarrassing. Why do you think God sometimes asks people to do things that don’t make sense at first?  Discuss
  • What are some situations today where following God (or doing what you believe is right) might cause someone to stand out from the crowd? Discuss
  • Have you ever been in a situation where standing up for what you know is right left you feeling awkward, embarrassed, left out, or judged? Discuss.
  • Have you ever believed that God was telling you to do something that didn’t make sense to you? Did you ever figure out what God was doing later?  Share
  • A burden is by definition a load that you carry. Something that weighs you down.  What is currently weighing you down that we can pray for you about? Share
  • Pray for one another.

It has been such a joy beginning the process of getting to know your students here at Creekside and I am humbled to be entrusted with the task of pointing them towards Jesus.  I realize when a church hires a new youth pastor, there is a natural tendency to think that they are here to work with the teens.  Whereas that is certainly a part of my role, mom’s & dad’s, I want you to know that I’m also here for YOU!  Parenting is no easy task, and as parents you will absolutely be the number one influence on your children and upon their spiritual formation!  As you seek to point your kids towards Jesus, please know that you aren’t in this alone!  If there is anything at all that I can do to support you as you shepherd your children, my door is always open!
