Selfless - Teen Devotional
He Changes Everything We don't have to look very far into the New Testament to see what Jesus was all about: He came to serve, not to be served. He laid down His status, His position, and even His life so that others might live. He modeled for us what a selfless life looks like. Now it's our turn to serve. Just like Jesus, it's time to pick up a towel, get on our knees, and wash some feet. This includes the feet of our friends, our families, and even our enemies. Living like this changes everything. In this 12-volume series, each 30-day devotional is framed by one simple word that speaks volumes about topics such as faith, relationships, identity, and culture. As they discover the depth and meaning behind each of these simple yet vital words, students will learn to walk confidently in God's Word and live more like Jesus. Reading through each book, students will learn to Discover God's Word, Delight in the Lord, and Display God's work in their lives. Discover (Identity + Theology): Who is God? Who am I in light of who God is? These are two of the most important questions students can grapple with because in discovering who God is, they learn who He has meant for them to be. Studies within the Discover category will help students align their lives under God's rule which will give them confidence in who they were created to be. Delight (Spiritual Disciplines): What does it mean to delight in God? What leads to delight in God? Helping students see God in every detail teaches them to delight in Him. When students find their delight in God, they will learn what it means and how to be in relationship with Him. Display (Leadership, Mission, + Disciple Making): How do students display the glory of God? How do they help others grow in their relationship with Him? How can they lead others to display the truth of God? Through students learning to lead, live on mission, and make disciples, God's glory is on display and His kingdom is expanded.
