LifeMatters

Why don't young adults like Sunday School?

Actually, they do. What they don't like is a lecture about what the Bible says. What they want is LifeMatters—solid Bible study connected to real life. Here's how:

• Three personal Bible study readings designed to introduce the study and get young adults engaged in studying the Bible for the upcoming lesson
• In-class discussion guides that start a talkfest revolving around and stemming from the Word
• Application sections aimed at moving biblical truths from the lesson into real life
• Connect ideas that create opportunities and practical ways to extend the lesson beyond Sunday and into the rest of life
• Connect as a Couple options that help couples apply those same truths to their relationship

We know leaders might be more comfortable teaching in a lecture style, but young adults will get more from interactive teaching styles. We help you make that jump with a discussion-driven format that is easy to teach. Here's how:

• Interactive teaching plans—gone are the days of lectures and leading from the front of the class
• Discussion-driven plans mean that most of the content will come from the people in the class
• You'll do more conversation steering-we'll help you set the direction
• We'll lead you—you can't lead where you haven't gone yourself, so we offer leaders a personal study that helps you prepare for the discussion time
• Extras in the sidebar-tips, media suggestions and more
