Jesus People: A 12 Week Discipleship Pathway for Teens
When you hang out with church people, it’s easy to learn what to say and do to fit in. But that doesn’t necessarily mean you know Jesus. We can do a lot of things to look good with other Christians, but still not understand what it means to live everyday life with Jesus, or to become just like him. The world doesn’t need more people who know how to fit in at church. The world needs Jesus people. You become a Jesus person when you start to interact with Jesus every day and learn how to live your life straight from him. And you can’t do that alone. Your church family is the perfect place to go to learn how to do that together. That’s what this journey is for. This tool will help you build relationships and habits into your life that keep you walking and talking with Jesus together.
This tool was created with middle and high school students in mind. The 12-week structure fits well into a school semester or a summer break. A Guide leads a group of 2-4 disciples (all male or all female). The only materials needed are a Bible, a notebook or journal, and a printed copy of this booklet. This journey has a 3-part rhythm: daily habits, weekly meetings, and monthly hang outs.

Inductive Bible Study: Getting Under the Surface with Scripture
Often when we read the Bible, we take it in quickly, or we read it at face value. Consider the difference between looking at a postcard from the ocean, and what it’s like to put on a wetsuit and get underwater to explore it yourself. Inductive study invites us to take a deep dive into scripture. Use this tool as well as the included IVCF Study Guide to experiment with inductive study yourself.

Awareness: Training to See More Than Meets the Eye
In a way, our level of God-awareness is linked to our desire for self-awareness. We say we want to hear God’s voice, but do we really want to hear everything he has to say? This guide considers 2 Kings 6 in light of what holds us back from seeing and hearing God in everyday life.
