Overview
Living Out a Jesus-Centered Life
Following Jesus: Doubts and Fears contains 4 lessons from the Following Jesus experience-based youth curriculum from Vibrant Faith and created by Rick Lawrence. This youth ministry curriculum moves from a teacher-student model toward one of active, participatory discovery, modeled after the way Jesus engaged people in the Bible.
This Series will help students overcome their doubts and fears and grow closer to Jesus. Whether they are a doubter, a skeptic, or a believer, they will discover how his love for you is unconditional and unchanging. Students will learn how to see God’s true nature through his word and his actions. They will overcome doubts about his existence, fears of rejection or failure, and feelings of unworthiness. Students will learn to embrace his truth and power in their lives while also developing a strong and lasting faith. Don't let doubts and fears hold your students back from knowing Jesus.
The 4 lesson topics are:
- Doubts and Fears
- Skepticism and Doubt
- Facing Fear
- Lazarus
Following Jesus is the ultimate youth curriculum for you and your ministry to:
- Encounter the love Jesus has for doubters, skeptics, and believers.
- Learn how weakness and fear can help students know the heart of Jesus.
