Goal for the Life Night
To give the teens a basic understanding of Scripture that will help promote a desire for teens to read and pray Scripture. This night will give teens the fundamentals to make Scripture less intimidating. The teens will become aware of the overall structure of the Bible so they can see the big picture. Once the big picture is seen, all of the details will make sense.
Life Night at Glance
The danger about this night is getting too academic, which runs the risk of the teens tuning out the content. The video and the game in the Gather will keep it light and fun. The teaching serves as an introduction to Sacred Scripture. It seeks to answer questions like is it all true? How was it written? When was it written? The Break brings Scripture into the context of the teen’s lives. Finally the Send shows how the Church has traditionally prayed the Scriptures in the Divine Office.
