I spent about an hour at Williamsville North today with the Bible club after school. One of our students asked me to come be a part of it as an “expert” who would answer the students’ questions. It was a fun time with them. Here are some of the questions we talked about:
- Is ___ the antichrist?
- What languages (and why those?) were used in the Bible?
- What’s with all the strange stuff in Revelation?
- Do people who commit suicide go to hell?
They had a few others, but these filled most of our time together. I felt good that this student had a place where they could interact with other Christians in the public school. I’d love to go back and do it again sometime in the future.
This is great. I think it’s always good when youth ministers get into the public schools, for whatever reason. I also think it’s a great testimony to your relationship with that kid that she would want you to be there. My experience is that kids often see their church “world” and their school “world” as completely detached from one another. And of course, it’s all God’s “world”, so your presence helps make the connection.
What a great thing for you to do. tough questions. would love to have heard the discussion.
Thanks for taking your ministry into a school and reaching more kids, Jason. Very cool.
You gonna share the answers with us??? 🙂
Great opportunity! Glad you had the chance and we’ll pray you get more like it.
Several are asking for answers. I’m considering writing them up sometime, but it’s so hard to get down in words in a concise manner. I’ll do my best though to get them up here.
