10/08/23 It's Just a Phase - Connect Your Kid to a Bigger Purpose

10/8/2023

 
Watch This Week's Message
Icebreakers
To start the discussion, choose one of the following Icebreaker Questions. (Or more than one if time allows.) You may want to ask these before the teaching video, whatever works best for you. 
  1. What’s the craziest or funniest question your kids have asked you about faith, God, or church? 
  2. What’s one thing you can remember your parents saying about faith growing up? 
Discussion Questions
These questions are a guide to get the conversation started in your group—don’t feel like you need to ask everything you see here! As long as you’re having a conversation, you’re on the right track. Also, feel free to adjust the questions to fit the needs of your specific group. 
  1. Consider this statement. “The way your child loves God affects everything else in their life.” How do you agree or disagree with that statement?
  2. Is it freeing or uncomfortable to think that all the Bible can be summed up with the word LOVE? 
  3. What do you want to be true about your kid’s faith one day when they grow up and leave your home?
  4. On a scale of 1 – 10 how confident do you feel having faith conversations with your kid or the kids in your life, and why? What resources (or people) might help you feel more confident? 
  5. What do you feel is most helpful in growing your kid’s faith in the phase they’re in now? (ex. Church, mission experiences, school FCA, family conversations, etc…)

PARENT CUE: Choose one simple thing to do this week to help your family connect to a bigger story—talk about your faith, ask your child a question, volunteer/help someone in need, discover something new about God in a story from the Bible. 
For additional ideas for the phase you are in now, read about the Faith Conversation in the Four Conversations section of your Phase Guide.

About Us
First Covenant Church is part of the Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC), which is a rapidly growing multi-ethnic denomination in the United States and Canada, with ministries on five continents of the world. Founded in 1885 by Swedish immigrants, the ECC values the Bible as the word of God, the gift of God's grace, and an ever-deepening spiritual life that comes through faith with Jesus Christ. We value the importance of extending God's love and compassion to a hurting world, and the strength that comes from unity within diversity. ​
