JESUS // Trusting Differently

Trusting Differently

If someone gave you a truckload of cash, how would you spend it all?
Is it easier to trust in God or in stuff?
​This week we launched a two-part series on the Beatitudes that Jesus taught in Matthew 5.

This first lesson focused on God’s desire for us to see we are blessed in the midst of life circumstances. No matter if we have a ton of possessions or very little, we’re blessed. God is with us through those moments of our lives where life gets crazy and we are mourning.

​Whatever we are going through, we can depend on God above any material possession.
As you go through this week, challenge your teenager to continue thinking about what God desires for them in this area. Here are a few questions that can help start a conversation while you’re in the car or eating dinner:
  • How does God’s desire for us to change differ from the empty promises made by commercials and other forms of advertising?
  • What are some material possessions, other than money, that teenagers might desire more than they desire a deep friendship with God?
  • What ways can our family depend more on God than we already do?

​Have a blessed week!
