The Quest: “Focusing on God’s best when it comes to relationships” is a one-day conference-style event for the students at Three Rivers Bible Church. The purpose of this event is to spend a day addressing some issues that all students need to be equipped to handle. Topics covered will include (but not limited to) – God’s design for relationships, how to address heart issues rather than just behaviors, relationships as idolatry, and navigating social media and other forms of technology.
It is not our desire to take the place of parents when it comes to these discussions. We desire to be a helpful teammate. We will outline biblical principles, and then remind students that much of what they decide to do when it comes to guidelines, rules, and other practical uses of these biblical principles comes from a discussion with their parents.
There will be five full-group sessions, one session where girls and guys are separated, and one Q & A session – questions will be written down and submitted ahead of time and will be screened to make sure that they are appropriate to cover with the group. We will also let the students release some energy with games/activities to break up the day.
This event is open to students in 6th – 12th grade. There will not be any biology lessons or anything graphic, but understand that we will address issues such as pornography and God’s design for marriage, one man and one woman. If this is something that you feel that your student is not ready to hear, please keep them home this time.
Last year was our first time doing this event, and it was a big success. Several students have come to their youth leaders asking to do it again. I was hesitant at first because it can be uncomfortable, but I feel that these topics need to be covered in our churches. The bottom line is, if our students only observe relationships by the culture around them, we are setting them up for failure.
We will have grab-n-go breakfast items when students first arrive, and lunch and dinner will be provided as well. There is no cost to attend, and even if you can’t make it to the entire event feel free to come when you can.
If you have any questions, you can feel free to reach out to me!
