Teaching Outline—The NeverEnding Story—Week 2
TOPIC: The NeverEnding Story: Participate In
TEXT: Luke 1.26-55 (New International Version)
How Can I Participate in the Story?
1.Know the STORY. Mary felt more assured that everything was okay because she knew God’s story.
2.Know your ROLE. If you are either young or old, big or little, male or female, God has a role for you and the sooner you know it the quicker you will be able to participate in the story.
3.Don’t be AFRAID. It had to be scary for Mary to tell her parents and Joseph about the new role she found herself in but that didn’t stop her. Don’t let fear hinder you from doing what God wants you to do.
4.Just DO IT! Most of us are really good at coming up with excuses. Stop! Instead of putting all your energy into excuse-making, just do what God asks you to do.
