Can I Ask That? Collection
Doubt isn’t toxic to faith.
Neither are hard questions.
Silence is.
Teenagers want to ask their tough questions about God, the Bible, and Christianity. For a decade, FYI’s Can I Ask That? curriculum has empowered youth leaders to start conversations about hard questions and lead students toward discovering their own faith convictions.
Now, get our popular discussion-based lesson guides re-released in a fresh new format for ministry with today’s teenagers. Flexible for groups of any size, each session features new material guaranteed to get teenagers thinking, talking, and living out their faith. Choose and download individual sessions to create your own curriculum based on the questions your students are asking.
Is Doubt Okay?
Does the Bible contradict itself?
Does God approve of violence?
How can I follow a God who would let Christians do such bad things?
Young Adult Discussion Guides
Young adults are often on the move—pursuing education, taking career steps, forming relationships, taking on responsibilities, and more. They’re finding their way between what is and what is about to be. Our young adult ministry discussion guides are designed to help ministry leaders and mentors walk alongside young adults through the seven most common transitions young adults face: Identity, Relationships, Responsibility, Contribution, Self-Care, Adapting, and Making Meaning.
Each research-driven guide features thought-provoking questions that create space for authentic conversations about the real stuff of life and reminds young adults God is with them, their faith still matters, and the community around them can support their journey.
