REVERB Games September 3, 2014 “Group Balloon Walk” Equipment
•
There will be one 12-inch or larger balloon for each participant
•
One leader per Color Group will need to use their phone as a timer
•
Half sheet of paper and pen per CG for score keeping
Objective The objective of this activity is for a group of two or three to move over the given course, carrying the balloons between their bodies. You will have them line up and cushion the balloons “front to back” or allow them to come up with a suitable method. The smaller team (of two or three) who finishes in the shortest time without dropping their balloon wins. Rules •
No hands may be used
•
Balloons may not be stuffed inside clothing
Spiritual Application The group must move as a unit to carry out this initiative. If a single person does not cooperate, the group cannot function. Likewise, one person couldn’t perform the task on their own. In the same way, God has designed people and the Church to function in community with one another. Today’s lesson will focus on how we are designed to live.
Reverb – September 3 rd , 2014 Core Values “Community” Acts 2:41 – 47 Lesson Objective: After studying the listed and any related Scriptures, students will be able to layout a comprehensive description of the relationship between the passage and (1) the imperative nature of community in the Church, (2) the biblical reasoning for discipleship, and (3) the different, yet equal ways in which God calls all of his people to serve Him. Lesson Overview: So those who accepted his message were baptized, and that day about 3,000 people were added to them. And they devoted themselves to the apostle’s teaching, to fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayers. Then fear came over everyone, and many wonders and signs were being performed through the apostles. Now all the believers were together and had everything in common. So they sold their possessions and property and distributed the proceeds to all, as anyone had a need. And every day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the temple complex, and broke bread from house to house. They ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising
God and having favor with all the people. And every day the Lord added to them those who were being saved. Here in this passage, we see the application of biblical community in and amongst believers. But to understand the application, we need to see the implication – which comes from the triune God. God is love. Because this truth about God has always been (even before creation), we can see that this loving nature of God existed in community with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In Acts 2, we begin to see the first picture of community in a New Testament church. This passage also gives us understanding to the ways in which we are to live (v. 42, 46), the ways in which God moved through them (v.41, 47), and the ways in which the Holy Spirit empowers believers (v. 43). Lesson Context: As the second book that Luke addressed to Theophilus (see Luke 1:3), Acts may originally have had no title. The Greek manuscripts title it “Acts,” and many add “of the Apostles.” But the book could more properly be called “The Acts of the Holy Spirit through the Apostles,” since His sovereign, superintending work was far more significant than that of any man. It was the Spirit’s directing, controlling, and empowering ministry that strengthened the church and caused it to grow in numbers, spiritual power, and influence. It’s important to note that Acts is primarily a historical narrative, not a theological treatise like Romans or Hebrews, it contains relatively few interpretive challenges. Those that exist mainly concern the book’s transitional nature and involve the role of signs and wonders. One of the cautions we must exercise in studying and teaching from the Book of Acts has to do with the difference between description and prescription. The difference plays an important role in interpreting the historical biblical books. The Bible’s description of an event does not imply that this event or action can, should, or will be repeated.

Lesson Discussion Jr. High
Relate •
Welcome & Review o A simple, brief time to greet one another and review the truths discussed in the last Color Group (see next section). Periodically, the leader will also want to ask about and discuss any decisions made so far made by a student. This could be formal decisions (as in salvation) or informal (as in praying each morning before getting out of bed).
•
Prayer
Direct Open discussion with this statement: Ephesians 4:4 says, “There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling.” While we all have diverse gifts and abilities, we still are a part of the body of Christ.”. o Ask the students to think about what would’ve happened if they had done that game alone (with no partner), and still using no hands. Then (1st) ask for volunteers or (2nd – if none) call on some to share their thoughts. – Pass out the pens and paper – Everyone has a job. From moms and dads at work, to the kids at home with chores, everyone has a job. Have each of the students draw a picture everyone in their family, and their associated jobs. o (1st) ask for volunteers or (2nd – if none) call on some to share what they drew. Also ask for that student to share their idea of what life would be like if that student had to do all the tasks that the family did as a whole. Close this time by praying for each other.

Group Questions o Pose the questions and instruct students to write down their answers on the provided paper. After everyone has written something down, then (1st) ask for volunteers or (2nd – if none) call on some to share their thoughts. 1. What does this passage teach us about the attributes of God? 2. What does it mean when the passage says “devoted to the teachings…”? 3. Why is it important for believers to live and learn in community, instead of listening to or studying Scripture solely in isolation? 4. What actions does God want you to take according to the truths of this passage? 5. What is an action that you can start to implement this evening or tomorrow? 6. What is going to be the most difficult aspect of this passage to personally apply?
Close this time by praying for each other, specifically for the strength to apply these truths.
