1 | explaining to middle school youth | John 14:6 | Gluasdi | 182780 | ||
I'm looking for a simple way to explain this verse to middle school students. I'm looking at breaking it down over the course of a few lessons. Any thoughts? |

2 | explaining to middle school youth | John 14:6 | Hank | 182799 | ||
Dear Gluasdi - Thanks for your question and welcome to SBF. This is a beautiful verse of Scripture, this John 14:6, and it's wonderful that you plan to expose a group of middle school students to its riches. You teach perhaps in a Christian school? I wouldn't strive for a simple way to present it to these kids but rather for a clear and dynamic way -- a way that will arrest their attention and grab them with its mighty truth. I would expect that you may get hit with some tough questions from these young students no matter how you present the verse, so I'm highly recommending a sermon to you as part of your preparation. The sermon is by a man who has been called "The Prince of Preachers," Charles Spurgeon, and if you aren't familiar with Spurgeon, I believe after reading his sermon on John 14:6, you will begin to see why he has been called a prince. The sermon, based on John 14:6, is called "The Way to God" and it addresses some of the same questions that are still being asked today, such as "can't people of other religions be saved as long as they're sincere?" You can read the sermon on this link: http://www.spurgeon.org/sermons/0245.htm ...... I honestly believe that you will find many riches in this powerful sermon that will inspire you and make you eager to share them with your kids. --Hank | ||||||
