Annotation: The Bible is a photo album, brimming with self-portraits of a God who wants to be known. God has put these pictures in the Bible to reveal his character. By examining them, we discover who God is and why he's worth knowing better. And we discover something else: who he wants us to be. He wants us to copy his picture into our own character. Wild Truth Bible Lessons--Pictures of God 2 is a guide to 12 God-pictures taken straight from the Photo Album. They are active Bible lessons for junior high and middle school Sunday school classes or youth group meetings, each one based on one of the 50 pictures of God and presented energetically, relevantly, and scripturally in the companion student book Wild Truth Journal: Pictures of God. The lessons are loaded with off-the-wall and easy-to-do discussion starters, video ideas, scripts, games with a point. And, of course, Bible passages and studies that springboard junior highers from the abstract into the concrete as (open Bibles in hand) they explore the nature of God in a lively, relevant way, and then begin practicing in their own lives the traits of God.
Here's how the lessons are organized:
* Picture Prep grabs your group's attention to prepare them for what's ahead.
* Action Shot takes your students into the Bible to catch God in the act of revealing his character.
* Self-Portrait explores the given aspect of God's character?how it makes God just that much more awesome?and why it's a very good trait for us to have, too.
* Print It! challenges your students to print God's picture into their own lives by living out his character in an immediately practical way.
