Youth Sermon Calendar: Volume 3

A 52-week roadmap for youth leaders on topics like anxiety, depression, dating, responsibility, faith and more.

Overwhelmed Youth Sermon Series Graphic

Overwhelmed

This four-week series helps teens consider anxiety and depression in a biblical way and equips them in how to get help for the struggles they face. Each week of this guide looks at a different priority and/or habit to help root students to Jesus and his church when they feel overwhelmed. Additionally, each has an application point to give practical help to teens.

Sucker For Love Relationship Sermon Series Graphic

Sucker For Love

This four-week series for teenagers examines Christian discipleship through the lens of romance, love, and dating. Rather than prescribing a set way to date, it will emphasize character traits, issues around sexuality and attraction, and how we can live as Christians in a “sexually liberated” world.

What Is Easter Youth Sermon Series

What Is Easter?

This four-week series for youth considers what is happening in the resurrection of Jesus and why it matters for us today. Focusing on four encounters with Jesus after his resurrection, “What Is Easter?” will help students see the personal implications for resurrection life.

Counter-Culture Sermon Series Graphic

Counter-Culture

This four-week series for youth examines several ways Jesus calls his people to be counter to the culture so that they can ultimately love it well. Jesus does not call us to simply oppose the culture or to blindly assimilate to it but rather to be a loving counterculture in the midst of it—a community that can look similar in some ways but also is distinct as it follows Christ. This begins with heart change and moves to our actions and behavior in such areas as sex, our relationship to possessions, and the way in which we worship.

Blockbusters God on Film Sermon Series Graphic

Blockbusters: Living God's Story

This four-week series uses Scripture and scenes from blockbuster movies over the last few decades to remind us that we all play an important part in the story of God’s plan of salvation for the world. Whether through public demonstrations of our faith, or creating a place of belonging for the lost, we are called to participate in the story of God’s love for this world. This series is designed to pull films from across various decades. Movies can be substituted based on the needs of the group.

Adulting Sermon Series Graphic

Adulting: How to Become a Responsible Adult

This four-week series challenges listeners to rise to the occasion of growing up to fit the crown God has for them as godly, virtuous adults. We can become godly adults by building a solid foundation as we learn to prioritize what God cares about, get our focus off of ourselves as we practice caring for others, and prepare ourselves to answer God’s call on our lives through study and discipleship. We can plan by setting boundaries and goals, and we can protect our future by establishing moral commitments.

Rethrone Youth Sermon Series Graphic

Rethrone

Within certain segments of popular culture, it’s become “cool” to follow Jesus. A slew of recent celebrity conversions—Justin Bieber and Kanye West, to name a few—as well as the ever-growing popularity of some young pastors, have turned Christianity into a hot topic these days. But faith in Christ is more than something on trend: it’s a way of life. Jesus’s teachings help us understand what it really means to follow him and make him our King.

What To Do When We Don't Know What To Do Youth Sermon Series Graphic

What To Do When We Don't Know What To Do

We need to prepare for the inevitable trials of life before they come. This four-week series will help youth do that through deepening their faith, resting in the assurance of the Good Shepherd, and being part of a community of Christians to lean on when the going gets tough and stress levels rise.

Back To The 90s Psalms Sermon Series Graphic

Back To The 90s

This youth series uses four psalms from “the 90s”—Psalms 91, 94, 95, and 99—to meditate on the attributes of God: his protection, justice, kingship, and holiness.

Scared To Live Youth Sermon Series Graphic

Scared To Live

Sometimes teens are scared to live, numbing themselves to life and to those around them. The world can be a scary and difficult place. Barriers to wholeness of life with God include shame, sin, fear, suffering, and distractions. Like Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, we hide from God, rather than bringing our troubles to him. In this series, teens will reflect on the painful struggles of life and find coping strategies such as lament, recounting God’s promises, and confession.

Satisfied Thanksgiving Sermon Series Graphic

Satisfied

Thanksgiving is a time of reflecting on what one has and giving thanks. Yet sometimes our habit is to compare ourselves with others and become fixated on what we don’t have. Jesus calls his followers to a radical commitment to satisfaction and contentment with what we have.
