LIVE Urban will help teenagers grow healthy spiritual lives rooted in a Christ-centered understanding of who they are. These 16 lessons move beyond urban stereotypes and creatively engage your students in dynamic conversations.

Description

By Leneita Fix and Jeffrey Wallace

Your students may know a lot about Jesus, but do they truly know him?

When some people think of urban youth ministry, they picture dangerous neighborhoods, run-down schools, and police sirens in the middle of the night.

While that image does describe daily life for some teenagers, we recognize that urban youth ministry isn't just about reaching out to the inner city. It's less about a street address and more about a generation stuck in survival mode--students struggling with their identity, with families that are hurting and broken, existing rather than living. Your passion as a youth worker is to see those teenagers move to a place of thriving in Christ.

That's why we created LIVE Urban youth group curriculum. These 16 youth Bible study lessons move beyond urban stereotypes and creatively engage your students in dynamic conversations built around four fundamental themes: parents, self-image, friendships, and the need to belong. When looking for new urban youth ministry ideas, try this Christ centered curriculum series. LIVE curriculum is designed to point today's youth toward living more Jesus-centered lives.

Overview

Your students may know a lot about Jesus, but do they truly know him?

That's why we created LIVE Urban, a youth group curriculum. These 16 lessons move beyond urban stereotypes and creatively engage your students in dynamic conversations and Bible studies built around four fundamental themes: parents, self-image, friendships, and the need to belong.

We recognize that urban youth ministry isn't just about reaching out to the inner city. It's less about a street address and more about a generation stuck in survival mode—students struggling with their identity, with families that are hurting and broken, existing rather than living. Your passion as a youth worker is to see those teenagers move to a place of thriving in Christ.

This youth ministry curriculum will help teenagers grow healthy spiritual lives rooted in a Christ-centered understanding of who they are. They'll discover biblical wisdom on relationships, including knowing when to end friendships that are unhealthy, destructive, or dangerous. And they'll explore the rewards of investing in their reputation at home, not just their reputation with their friends.

BONUS: Because of the unique challenges and opportunities of urban ministry, we also have developed additional tools for communicating with parents after each lesson. Connecting with parents allows them to know you are partnering with them in the lives of their son or daughter. A changed parent = a changed family = a changed neighborhood = a changed community.

Is this at level for Junior High Boys?
Live Urban can be used with Jr or Sr High students. I would encourage you to sign up for the free trial and along with the other LIVE curriculum lines, you will have at least two full lessons to sample from this program.

Kathi
hello, do you have a similar curriculum for children? We are working with children who are at risk in the inner city. 1st grade through 6th. Thank you !
We don't have a program for inner city children specifically, but I would encourage you to look at the Digging Into The Heart of God. It brings a fresh approach to growing a lifelong relationship with God. As kids explore God's character throughout the Bible, God transforms them from the inside out. Kids discover what it means to reflect the heart of God in everyday life. If you would like to speak to a Curriculum Specialist, please give us a call at 1-800-447-1070 option 1 and we can connect you to the Specialist for your state.
