UPRISING STUDENTS:

Week 2, No Limits Discussion

  ·       With God, there’s no limit to what you can do.  Do you ever feel like everyone expects too much of you? Like the pressure of it all is just too much and it makes you feel like you shouldn’t even try? Or maybe you feel like no one expects much of you. No one pushes you or believes in you. Either way, facing the expectations of others can feel paralyzing. And, in that way, we have a lot in common with Moses. God had given him a task that felt way outside the limits of his ability, way outside of anything he could do on his own.

Moses felt underprepared and overwhelmed. He was ready to quit. But in his most anxious and fear-filled moment, God said something to Moses—one phrase—that changed the way he saw himself and everything around him. And it has the power to do the same for us!

 

 

UPRISING PARENTS:

Week 2, No Limits Discussion

 Is your teenager encouraged or pressured by you? Find out, and talk about how you can encourage more or pressure less.  

 Do you believe in your teen too much? They feel like they have to live with too many expectations and too much pressure?

Maybe they feel like they're believed in too little. Nobody is cheering them on.
So why should they even try?


ACTION PLAN: Take time this week and have a discussion about these questions.
