Jesus and Mean People: A 4-Lesson Bible Study will teach your students that they’re called to treat mean people with grace, and in so doing, identify themselves with God, that they can have courage when facing mean people because the Holy Spirit is always with them, and that Jesus modeled how we’re to treat the meanest the mean of people in our lives.
Everyone has experienced them. Everyone knows how it feels to be on the receiving end of their special brand of attention. Of course, we’re talking about mean people. No one is safe from their meanness, especially not teenagers. For so many reasons, mean people are a part of our teenagers’ lives. And the biggest thing about mean people is that very rarely does one do anything to deserve their wrath. How should teenagers act in the face of the mean people who inhabit their worlds? Good thing Jesus had a lot to say about this.

That they’re called to treat mean people with grace, and in so doing, identify themselves with God

Secure your next year of Bible study strategy today with the Jesus Studies 52-Week Strategy
Fears every Youth Worker has when selecting a year-long Bible Study:
The fear of locking into a Bible study that looks good on the surface but doesn't go any deeper than surface-level
The fear of being a few weeks into a study and it not meeting the expectations you set
The fear of picking a study that doesn't ultimately speak into the lives of your students
It doesn't have to be this way.
You don’t need to be reminded of the issues teenagers deal with as they try to live out their faith in a world that’s often opposed to their core beliefs. Navigating these issues can be rough. Teenagers get so many mixed messages; the world says one thing, their friends may say another. And we hope they know enough about their faith to know how to make sense of it all.
The Jesus Studies, a 52-week Bible study strategy, cut through the confusion, teaching your students a Christ-centered look at the major issues they deal with in their lives.
These are not watered-down, topical Bible studies. These studies reveal how Jesus weighs in on the very issues your students are confronted with on a daily basis. Your students will learn to see life through the person of Christ.
Your students will journey through the following concepts: Jesus and Identity, Your Faith, Jesus and Culture, Jesus and Loving Others, Jesus and Tough Times, Jesus and Your Image, Jesus and Stress, Jesus and Forgiveness, Jesus and Influence, Jesus and Relationships, Jesus and Your Future, Jesus and Mean People, and Jesus and Stuff.
Teach The Jesus Studies to equip your students to see the relevant issues of their lives through the words of Jesus.
