Sunday Morning Small Groups 3-30
This week, we are continuing in 1 Peter, discussing how we are called to honor the Lord in our relationships with others. Relationships matter to us. Whether it’s a friendship, a dating relationship, or the relationship we have with a coach, teacher, parent, or sibling, we treasure the connections we have with the people in our lives. The way we act in these relationships should matter to us, as well. Peter’s desire in his letter is for his readers, the new people of God, to love one another, pursue good, and refuse to respond to mistreatment with revenge. Although Peter’s instructions are specifically for wives and husbands, roles that students probably aren’t thinking about very much at this point in their lives, these are godly principles that we can all learn and apply. As followers of Jesus, we are called to honor the Lord in all our relationships with others.
Please take a moment to read our Scripture passage for this week:
1 Peter 3:1-12
Next Steps:
Here are some questions to help guide you as you discuss this lesson with your student!
-How does Peter define true beauty?
-How should husbands treat their wives, according to Peter? What reason does he give?
-Why do you think it is important for Christians to live out the teachings found in verses 8-9?
-What are some ways that we can regularly pray for those who have treated us unkindly?
Thank you for all you do. As a parent, you are the primary spiritual influence in the life of your teenager, and they desperately need you. I’m praying for you! If you have any questions or if I can help with anything, please don't hesitate to let me know!
