Truth Taught:
Friends can either encourage you or bring you down.
Materials:
Deflated ball, pump
Instructions
- Give two volunteers a deflated ball and ask them to pass and dribble it. They will struggle because it’s flat.
- Pump up the ball and let them try again, pointing out how much better it works when inflated.
- Ask: How are friends like this ball? (Good friends pump you up, bad friends drag you down.)
- Read 1 Corinthians 15:33 and explain that friends influence us, either for good or bad.
