Jesus Creed: Week One Review

Posted on October 3, 2011 by Joe

This week we started our Jesus Creed for Students study with the youth group. We decided to do it at our main gathering because it would work well coming out of our study of the Kingdom of God in Matthew we had just finished up.

The Jesus Creed for Students is the youth version of Scot McKnight’s book The Jesus Creed, and it centers around Jesus’ statement that the center of Jesus’ ethic was the command to love God and to love others. Continue reading →

The Jesus Creed

Posted on October 2, 2011 by Joe

Tonight we started our study of The Jesus Creed for Students by Scot McKnight. We’re asking Junior and Senior High students, as well as adult counselors, to commit to recited the Jesus Creed throughout the month of October:

1. When you wake up.
2. When you go to bed.
3. When you leave your house.
4. Whenever it comes to mind throughout the day.

The Jesus Creed is:

“Hear O Israel, the Lord your God, the Lord is One.

Love the Lord your God

with all your heart,

with all your soul,

with all your mind,

and with all your strength.”

The second is this:

“Love your neighbor as yourself.”

There is no commandment greater than these.

-Mark 12:29–31

If you want to read ahead and have your own copy of the book, next week’s we’re studying chapters 3 & 4!
