A few weeks ago at youth we did a three week teaching series on, “Who am I becoming?” The first week we talked about the kind of biblical characteristics that we would like to mark our lives. The second week we talked about how reading the Bible will shape who we are becoming. And on the third week we talked about how prayer also shapes you. Then during the week, we put up other suggestions and devotionals on our Instagram page on how our students could continue exploring the theme of the week.

The encouraging part of this series was that a number of students starting reading their Bible intentionally for the first time! It was during those weeks I talked to a number of students who when reading their Bibles tended to flip randomly from place to place. But were now encouraged to read through a book or Gospel at a time and be more focused and intentional about their Bible reading. One student had recently asked God to grow his faith and then was encouraged both at youth and from a number of other places to dig into their Bible and has now been doing so. Another student reading through the Gospel of John said, “It was a real eye opener for me how many signs Jesus showed to those around him, and how they didn’t really pay attention to them.  It showed me how I can sometimes be like those people.” I always get excited when young people engage with the Scriptures and get new insights, especially when they encourage and challenge me too! May we all be encouraged to do the same!
