DISCUSSION

Life App: Hope—Believing that something good can come out of something bad 

Bible Story: That’s What Fronds Are For (Palm Sunday) • John 12:9-16 (supporting: Matthew 21:1-11)

Key Question: What are you hoping for? 

Bottom Line: Whatever happens, remember God is still working. 

Basic Truth: I am loved by God no matter what so I can trust God to guide me.

Memory Verse: In this world you will have trouble. But be encouraged! I have won the battle over the world. John 16:33b (NIrV) 

Askthe following questions and lead the group to discuss:    

  • What are some hard situations you or other kids your age have gone through?  
  • What does it feel like when you’re facing a tough situation and you can’t see or understand what God is doing in it?  
  • What does it look like for a kid your age to trust God when going through a problem that feels hopeless?  
  • Why does it give us hope to know that God is ALWAYS working out God’s plans and will NEVER stop?
