Ministry to Youth

Emmaus’ youth ministry does not take the place of our regular Sunday worship service. We believe that our young people are a valuable and significant part of the congregation, and therefore, should regularly attend our Sunday worship services where they will learn from the teaching of the scriptures, worship, and interact with the adults of Emmaus.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

Discussion Questions: Luke 20:45-21:4
posted on Sunday, May 25th by Joe

  1. What were the heart sins of the scribes that Jesus warned about?
  2. Why are those who are prideful, selfishly ambitious, and greedy dangerous?
  3. What does it mean that the scribes devoured widows’ houses?
  4. What does the story about the widow giving two small copper coins have to do with the previous passage?
  5. Based on our text, describe the ethos or culture that the church is to have as it pertains to power, prestige, and wealth.

Discussion Questions: Baptist Catechism 78-80
posted on Sunday, May 25th by Joe

  1. What is the eighth commandment?
  2. What does it mean to steal? 
  3. How is our daily provision and wealth to be obtained?
  4. Ephesians 4:28 says, “Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need” (Ephesians 4:28, ESV). Can you think of certain kinds of “work” that would not qualify as “honest work”? Why must the Christian avoid this kind of work?
  5. Why does our catechism say that the command, “Thou shalt not steal”, requires  “the lawful procuring and furthering the wealth and outward estate of ourselves and others”? How do we jump from the one idea to the others?
