Moments Series: 4-Week Youth Group Lesson on Spiritual Growth

Life happens minute by minute, but certain moments shape us forever. In the Gospels we see Jesus transform people’s lives in a single encounter. This four‑week youth group lesson highlights four moments when Jesus changed everything for someone and shows students how God uses key experiences — healing, forgiveness, pain, and provision — to spur their spiritual growth.

Series Overview

• Week 1 – One Moment Can Change Everything – Students explore John 5:1–9, where Jesus heals a man after 38 years of sickness. They discover that just one moment with Jesus can rewrite an entire story.
• Week 2 – Jesus Redeems a Lifetime of Wrong – Through the story of Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1–8), students see that shame and pride can keep us from seeking help, but Jesus’s invitation brings forgiveness and redemption in an instant.
• Week 3 – God Works Through What Hurts Us – The woman at the well (John 4:1–26, 39–42) experienced healing and freedom when Jesus met her in her pain. Students learn that God often uses our wounds as entry points for His healing work.
• Week 4 – Give What You Have – Studying the feeding of the five thousand (John 6:1‑14), students see that when they bring their insufficient resources to Jesus, He multiplies them. They’re reminded that God can do miracles with whatever they have to offer.
