Part 1 – “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”

They should be able to accept and embrace their uniqueness and be thankful for and respectful of the body they have been given.

Part 2 – “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”

By the end of part two of this session, each person should understand that there are many ways in which they have been created unique and comparing themselves to others is a dangerous trap which should be avoided at all costs.

They should be able to accept and embrace their differences and be confident to be themselves rather than trying to be like everyone else, as well as be thankful/grateful for the life they have been given.

Part 1  – “I am valuable & precious.”

By the end of part one of this session, each person should understand that their value comes from within them, they are precious and of great worth regardless of what they or other people believe, and there is nothing that can ever change their value or take away their worth.

Part 1 – “I am cultivating character”

By the end of part one of this session, each person should understand that there is no one way to be physically (outwardly) attractive and that our character is far more important than the way we look on the outside.

They should be able to challenge and reject society’s appearance ideals and concentrate on developing their inner qualities and character which are of far greater worth.

Part 2 – “I am a work in progress”

By the end of part two of this session, each person should understand that they are a ‘work in progress’, and that developing their character takes time and practice, as well as the power of the Holy Spirit working in and through them.

They should be able to look for and celebrate positive inner qualities in each other, cultivate the fruit of the Spirit in their own lives, and then share it with others.

Part 1 – “I am accepted NOT rejected”

By the end of part one of this session, each person should understand that God can always be trusted and there is nothing to fear because He is a perfect Father who is always with them and will never leave them.

They should be able to embrace God as their good and loving Father who accepts them regardless of where they have been or what they have done.

Part 2 – “I am strengthened and restored.”

By the end of part two of this session, each person should understand that God cares about their pain and suffering, that He is the only one who can heal their broken hearts, and that strength comes from struggle.

They should be able to take their broken pieces to God so that He can heal and restore them, as well as trust Him to use what they have been through to make them strong, firm, and steadfast.

Part 1 – “I am made for mission”

By the end of part one of this session, each person should understand that they have been created for a specific mission and purpose and have been called to be beacons of hope through their good deeds and ‘acts of kindness’.

They should be able to show their love for others through their actions (both big and small!), creating ripples of love and kindness that will make a real difference in this world.

Part 2 – “I am equipped to serve”

By the end of part two of this session, each person should understand that they have been created to do good works, that learning to serve like Jesus did gives their life meaning and purpose, and that God has equipped them with everything they need to fulfil their purpose.

They should be able to recognise and use their gifts, abilities, and talents to serve others and bring glory to God. They should also be able to ask God for His power (the Holy Spirit) to equip and empower them to make a real difference with their lives.

Part 1 – “I am free to live”

By the end of part one of this session, each person should understand that Jesus is the only one who can set them free, freedom is a choice, and Jesus came to give them life to the full.

They should be able to reject the lies that they still believe about themselves and accept and embrace God’s truths about who they are in Him. They should be able to let go of the things that are keeping them in bondage and claim the freedom that is theirs in Christ.

Part 2 of ‘Created to Live’ should be a time of celebration and fun to end the course.
