Potential Discussion Using this
Game
Full of Hot Air: Now we know
which team is “full of hot air.”
The phrase “full of hot air” refers
to someone who is not sincere
and though they boast loudly
about doing certain things will
have no practical results. I
wonder how many of us are like
that as Christians? Do we
proclaim to be Christians but
have fail to live the Christian life?

Do you make commitments and
never follow through? What are
some of the things you are
committed to in your relationship
with God? The church at Laodicea
(rev 3:14-22) was referred to as
lukewarm – They were neither hot
nor cold. This is a similar concept.
In this case God would prefer us to
be completely committed or not
committed at all rather than to
make claims and never follow
through. How can you be more
committed in your relationship
with God?
Bible Studies based on the book of Jonah
Only. This youth camp curriculum was
designed to teach the basic truths
of obedience in addition to evangelism in the
context of a Biblical character. The advantage
of going through a book and looking at one
man's story is that we see not only the
teaching but the example. It becomes much
more real!

Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do others
say that I am?" It was easy to answer
because it required no conviction, no
commitment, and no risk. But then he
follows that question with another, "Who
do YOU say that I am?"
