Mark: What Kind of Soil Are You?

A bunch of life-giving seed... four types of soils and incredibly high stakes. Through Mark, Jesus is earnestly warning... Listen up carefully and consider.. Which soil are you?

• What happens when the seed falls on each of the soils?
• Which soil do you think you are?
• Do the others in your family agree with you?

Life of Daniel: Dare to Be a Daniel

We live in a culture that is growing increasingly hostile to Christianity. How should one function in such an environment? Daniel is a good model for us to turn to because he was faced with a similar situation all of his adult life. This study will begin to look at his life with a view to how we can be faithful in trying times.

Daniel 1

Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:

• Why was the position Daniel put in so potentially dangerous for him?
• What are some of the godly characteristics Daniel showed as a young man?
• Why is it so hard to take a stand like he did?
• Why was it so important for him and the others to take that stand so soon after they arrived in Babylon?
• How is Daniel's situation similar to ours as Christians today?
• What lessons should we learn from his life?
