What's Happenin' @ Collision

Below is a brief summary of what we have been talking about recently.  Most of the time we teach through a series for several weeks at a time that way students that miss can get caught back up quickly, and so we can dissect a topic more fully than just a one night deal. Use the overview and questions for both you and your teen to answer and have a dialog that continues outside the church walls and into your homes.  Use this opportunity to see what God is teaching your student and also allow your student to see what God is teaching/taught you.



This Week at Collision

Series Overview

Kairos is about time. Not the tick-tock kind of time we are used to living in. Kairos is the beautiful kind
of time where God breaks in and changes everything. These are moments when something special happens.
They are moments that interrupt our status quo. They are moments when the trajectory of our journeys
change forever.
 

When God breaks in, we must take the change He creates — whatever it may be. We must accept both
the work of Christ and the way of Christ. We must trust in what God is doing instead of trying to do it
ourselves. And then we must step out in faith and believe that God’s goodness will come in time.
 

In this series, we will set aside tick-tock time to engage God intentionally and expect him to break into our lives in timeless ways. We’ll be inspired and disturbed. We’ll be encouraged and challenged.

We’ll be loved and changed. The moment is upon us. Don’t you think it’s about time?


Week 2 (2014-11-12)

It is one thing to accept the stuff or the work of Jesus.  But it is an entirely different thing to accept the ways of Jesus.  Tonight we discussed how to be like Jesus we must first loose every ounce of ourselves to humility and service....not exactly something our culture is know for.  Tonight may be a difficult night for your teen because it may seem as though this Jesus thing is going after all they hold dear.  The truth is, this Jesus thing wants to push that stuff to the side to show your teen what "life to the fullest" is all about.

Intentional Interaction

What are some other ways that we try to be more?

Why didn’t Jesus try to be more? How did He become less?

What does it look like for us to become less?
