Sometimes, our pride makes it hard to admit when we’ve messed up and truly surrender our sin to God. In the final week of Clickbait, we looked at Psalm 51 and David’s honest prayer of repentance, asking God for forgiveness and a clean heart. We talked about what it looks like to stop making excuses, let go of our pride, and come to God honestly about our sin. God isn’t asking us to pretend we have it all together. He wants us to come to Him with humble hearts, ready to repent and let Him change us.

Temptation doesn’t always look bad. Sometimes, it looks fun, feels right, or seems like no big deal. But just because something looks good doesn’t mean it’s good for us! In Week 3 of Clickbait, we talked about how temptation can pull us away from what God wants for us and how we can learn to recognize the bait before we fall for it.

Why do we keep doing things we know we shouldn’t, even when we know what God says is right? In Week 2 of our teaching series, Click Bait, we talked about the battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit living in us as believers. Our sin nature constantly pulls us toward things that go against God, but we don’t have to give in! We looked at what it means to fight against those desires and choose to follow the Holy Spirit in our everyday lives.

In the first week of our new series, Clickbait, we took a look at what temptation really is and why it can be so easy to fall for. We were reminded that temptation often promises something good, but ultimately pulls our hearts away from God. We challenged our students to recognize the lies of temptation, know how to respond when it comes, and remember that we should never exchange the Creator for the creation.

In the final week of our series, When Crap Hits the Fan, we looked at what happens when the sin in our own lives causes chaos to happen. We talked about what it looks like to recognize our sin, take responsibility for our choices, turn back to God, and receive His forgiveness. Students were reminded that even when our sin has consequences, God’s grace is bigger than our mistakes and He invites us to run back to Him.

What do we do when our circumstances don’t change? In Week 3 of our series, When Crap Hits the Fan, we looked at the life of David and how he chose to praise the Lord even when life wasn’t going the way he hoped. David reminds us that our worship isn’t dependent on our circumstances—God is still worthy of our praise in the middle of the mess. Our students were encouraged and challenged to choose praise, trust God, and worship Him no matter what they’re facing.

Life doesn’t always go according to plan. In our new series, When Crap Hits the Fan, we’re looking at people throughout Scripture who experienced fear, hardship, uncertainty, and moments when everything seemed to fall apart. But more importantly, we’re looking at how they responded. Through their stories, we’ll discover what it looks like to trust God, remain faithful, and follow Him even when life gets hard.

This week we closed out our Back to Church series by talking all about how we can change the world with the gospel! When we understand the power of the good news of Jesus, we can’t keep it to ourselves. Our students were encouraged and challenged to be bold in sharing the gospel with everyone around them and to live as people who carry the hope of Jesus wherever they go. As we wrap up this series, our prayer is that students would leave ready to boldly share the good news of Jesus and be a part of changing the world around them!
