In an age of selfies and curated social media, teens often struggle with self-absorption. Thus, it is easy to turn the gospel into merely a call to believe something and get right with God. But Paul’s presentation of the gospel is emphatically rooted in historical events accomplished by Christ outside ourselves. In this session we will focus on how Paul proclaims Jesus as the climax of the big, centuries-long saving plan of God—and what that means for ministry. We will show teens how they fit into a bigger gospel story.
