Make it yours

Together · Do this as a group

Big idea

Faith grows strong when it’s really yours

Colossians 2:6-7 · NIV

6So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, 7rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

Read the full passage

A lot of us grew up around church, which is a gift, but at some point faith has to become your own choice. This year is about putting down roots with small, steady habits that hold up when life gets busy.

Talk about it

Question 1 of 3
  1. What parts of your faith feel handed to you?
  2. What would owning your faith look like on a normal school day?
  3. What’s one small habit you want to start this year?
This week’s challenge

Pick one small habit, like five minutes of reading or one honest prayer a day, and give it a try this week.

Saved on this phone. Never lose your progress.

Ideas to do togetherSlow down for a bit, so there’s room to pray and notice what God is doing

Here are a few ideas for this year

  • Read the same passage during the week and share what stood out in the group chat
  • Stay a few minutes after small group to pray for each other
  • Pick one verse to memorize together this year
  • Text the group one thing that stuck with you from Sunday

These are just ideas. Follow your church’s guidelines

Let’s pray

God, help our faith become our own. Root us in You this year. Amen.
