Under Pressure

A 4-Week Series

Help preteens deal with the various pressure they face.

Under Pressure at School
Homework, a rigid school schedule, tough subjects, tests, standardized tests on the horizon, a new school…the list goes on. Preteens are expected to do their best and excel in school, and the pressure to perform well can add a lot of stress to their lives. The Under Pressure series helps relieve the pressure at school. Preteens will discover that we need God and God is all we need. They’ll be encouraged to do their best in school, and let it be at that.

Under Pressure at Home
Preteens experience a lot of pressure at home. Parents expect them to stay on top of their homework and get good grades on top of other things, such as: chores; getting along with siblings; cleaning their rooms, etc. That’s a lot of pressure to handle. The Under Pressure series helps relieve the pressure at home. Preteens will learn that when they mess up, their parents and God are faithful to forgive and keep on loving them.

Under Pressure in Extracurricular Activities
Preteens feel pressure to excel at sports, music, drama or whatever other activities they are involved in. Their coaches and instructors often turn up the heat, oftentimes demanding perfection. The Under Pressure series helps relieve the pressure in extracurricular activities. Preteens will be encouraged to do their best & honor God in everything they do.

Under Pressure at Church
Preteens sometimes think they have to be perfect Christians. They feel horrible when they mess up and fail, often concluding that following Jesus is too difficult. Sin exposes their weaknesses, often making preteens feel like they let God down by making bad decisions. The Under Pressure series helps relieve the pressure at church. Preteens will learn that our weakness is the greatest opportunity for others to see the light and power of Jesus.

The Power of Influence

A 4-Week Series

Preteens are influenced by the world around them. Parents, teachers, coaches, friends, family, the media, etc. have a major influence on young people. Preteens are often unaware of how those influences affect them. They’re unaware how the world around them is shaping, molding and affecting how they think, believe and act.

The heart of the series is Isaiah 64:8 – “Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.”

The biggest influence in our lives should be God, our Father. Preteens will learn that God designed them to be like clay, allowing Him to influence, mold, and shape them to be more like Jesus in the way they think, believe, and act.
