Alpha Session – We belong together.
This week, we start with Alpha4Kids; all is experiential, so there are no videos.
The questions we will be asking are:
- Why does God ask us to love one another equally?
- What stood out to you the most from the message? What’s one thing you learned?
- Read Romans 12:4-5NLT.
- Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.
- What does this passage tell you about what the church (the body of Christ) means?
- What can you learn from this passage about the foolishness of treating people poorly, unfairly, or ignoring some people?
- What was unjust about today’s word search game?
- How did playing this game make you feel?
- How is this game a little like real-life unfair situations you know of?
- Talk about some ways you can choose to see, choose to stop, and choose to serve someone who otherwise might be overlooked or ignored—just like the Good Samaritan did
- Who can you reach out to for help if something is unfair in your own life or in the life of someone you care about—and you’re not sure what to do?
