9 May – Max Lucado – Lesson 1 in Made to Make a Difference: Our Generation
Can you really change the world? Deep down, everyone wants to make a difference. But it is difficult for students to get past their own issues, problems, and distractions to see that their lives can count right now. In these four challenging sessions, Max Lucado offers biblical insight into how God has uniquely created students with certain passions, talents, and interests to impact the world for Christ. Students share real-life stories on how they’ve spoken up, stepped up, stepped out and made a difference around them.

13 Jun Doug Fields – Lesson 1 in Conflict: Overcoming Stress in Your Relationships – Conflict with Family
Why is everyone against me? Friends gossip and betray. Parents are all about rules and lecturing. Teachers and coaches single out favorites. When life is unfair, even God seems to be a part of the conflict. Students can start to feel like everyone is out to get them. In these four powerful sessions, students candidly share real-life stories about the conflict they experience in their lives. Doug Fields offers biblical insight into the most common areas of conflict and teaches students how to reach peace and forgiveness in the relationships that mean the most to them.

25 Jul Sean McDowell – Lesson 1 & 2 in Friends: Peer Pressure and Loneliness
Who are the most influential people in a student’s life? Parents, teachers and pastors would like to think they are the most influential in a student’s life, but students spend more time interacting with their friends than with anyone else. Friends influence every part of students’ lives – how they act, what they wear, what they say, and most importantly, what they believe. In these four power-packed sessions, Sean McDowell offers biblical insight into the most common issues students are facing in their friendships.

Sean McDowell offers biblical insight into the fleeting nature of happiness and the true meaning of joy.
