Time for the Student Quest Sunday recap for October 11th, 2026! We played a game I made called Beat the Odds that was a lot of fun! Our teaching time concluded a three week series in Titus that I am teaching. We also watched the highlight video from the high school fall retreat. Check it out:
We had a few announcements/reminders:
- Student Quest is temporarily combined in the Loft while construction displaces Adult Christian Ed into the gym.
- Download our app! It has our event calendar, updates, photos, social links, podcast feed, video feed, and more! Find it on the Apple app store and Google Play store!
- Construction is continuing. Students can get to the Sunday student hour and other student events through the main entrance. Just follow the signs!
This week we wrapped up our Titus series with chapter 3, where Paul tells believers to “slander no one,” to “avoid quarreling,” and to “be gentle and show true humility to everyone” (Titus 3:2). Paul was writing to Christians in a culture known for being argumentative, and he wanted them to handle conflict differently because Jesus had made them new people. We talked about how easily disagreements turn ugly, whether with family, friends, teammates, or online, and why it’s sometimes better to walk away from a fight than to win it. Our big idea: Christians are called to disagree differently from the world around them. Students were challenged to do that in three ways: be obedient to the authorities in their lives, be gentle in how they respond, and be humble enough to care more about looking like Jesus than having the last word. Here are some follow up question you can ask your student(s):
- Where do arguments or drama come up most for you: at school, online, with friends, or here at home?
- Is there a fight or argument in your life right now that you’d be better off walking away from?
- Which is hardest for you: obeying people in authority, staying gentle, or letting someone else have the last word? Which one is hardest for me, and how can we work on it together?
