THY KINGDOM COME<br />
session 10 121<br />
WATCH THE DVD FOR THIS SESSION AND<br />
CAPTURE THOUGHTS YOU WANT TO REMEM-<br />
BER ABOUT THIS WEEK’S TEACHING.<br />
GROWING<br />
TOGETHER<br />
As young kids we want to be picked for the<br />
team. We want access to the clubhouse—<br />
especially if there’s a secret handshake. As we<br />
get older we want to be one of the cool kids,<br />
and it’s very important who we sit with at lunch.<br />
After school we want to beat others out for the<br />
best jobs with the best perks and benefits, live<br />
in the best communities, get our kids in the best<br />
schools and be thought of as successful.<br />
Our society creates countless ways to keep<br />
people out. There’s always some group we can’t<br />
join or some VIP line we can’t cross. Fortunately,<br />
the kingdom of God doesn’t work that way.<br />
While the kingdom can be a confusing place,<br />
with new customs and strange sayings, it’s also<br />
the best place—and the king wants everyone<br />
to be part of it. You don’t have to have designer<br />
clothes. You don’t have to write an essay or fill<br />
out an application. You don’t even have to have<br />
any money. He’s chosen YOU for the team—<br />
and now it’s time for you to get in the game.<br />
AFTER WATCHING THE DVD, DISCUSS THE FOLLOWING:<br />
Why do you think we have such a tendency to group people into categories?<br />
How can sin keep us out of the kingdom?<br />
How did Jesus “pay the expenses” for you to join the kingdom?
