  1. Youth Devotional - Broken Down Car Race www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  2. We need to tune up our lives to be effective for Christ. MaterialsA large open space www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  3. ActivityIn the broken-car relay, each team runs several consecutive races.1. In each race they will pretend that they're part of a car with a problem, such as a stuck horn that's blaring incessantly or windshield wipers that won't stop moving. The children run the race acting out what's broken. For example, if the car is stuck in reverse, the children will run backwards. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  4. 2. Before each race begins, tell the runners what problems their car will have.3. Choose a starting point and a turnaround line that are about 20 feet apart and then divide the children into two teams, or have them pick which team they want to be in. Each team should line up single file behind the starting line.4. At your signal, (dropping a checkered flag?) the race begins. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  5. 5. One by one the children run to the turnaround line and back while pretending to be the car with the first problem.6. After all the children on one team have had the first problem, they run again, this time with the second problem and then the third, etc. The first team that completes all of the relays wins the race. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  6. HintsYoung children may have a hard time figuring out what motions to use while they run. You can always give them ideas or help them to come up with their own. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  7. ApplicationPaul compares the Christian life, not to a car race, but to a human race where the runners press toward the prize. But sometimes we have problems running the race God has given us. We don't live up to our potential. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  8. Discussion1. What are some of our problems that prevent us from running the Christian race at our best?2. How can we get our lives tuned up for victory?3. What do you need to change this week to become more victorious in your Christian life? www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com

  9. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Creative Youth Ideas Go for the Gold Need an evangelistic Youth Camp/ Bible Study Series with an Olympic Theme? What is salvation all about? What does it mean to be saved? This sports themed Bible Study / Camp Curriculum uses the Olympic Flag to introduce the concepts of sin (black circle), forgiveness (red circle), purity (white background), spiritual growth (green circle), heaven (Yellow Circle) and (Baptism) blue circle. -> Tell me about “Go for the Gold” www.creativeyouthideas.com/goforthegold.html

  10. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Creative Youth Ideas Destined to Win Need a Youth Camp/ Bible Study Series on ”Running the Christian Race”? The race as a metaphor for the Christian life is used in several places in the Bible. This series is a great follow up for new Christians or to re-emphasize the basics of our spiritual Journey in the Faith. This Bible Study / Camp Curriculum has a sports theme and is great for athletes as well as a tie in to the youth Olympic Games. ->Tell me about “Destined to Win” www.creativeyouthideas.com/destinedtowin.html
