Superheroes

The theme of the new Middle School Youth Group study is Superhero GIG (Groups Investigating God). On that same line of thought, make up a new superhero and tell his/her name, special abilities and any other important information.

If I had a Million Dollars...

A few years ago, there was a popular song in which the group had all kinds of wacky ideas of how they would spend a million dollars. How would you spend a million dollars?

Tiny, Toony, All a little Looney!

They're tiny, they're toony, they're all a little looney!...
Gummi Bears, hopping here and there and everywhere!...
Flintstones, meet the Flintstones, they're a modern stone age family...
Broccoli, celery, gotta be...Veggie Tales....

You guessed it! These are all theme songs from cartoons! What is or was your favorite cartoon and why?

Favorite People

In "Because of Winn Dixie" Opal begins to meet a lot of new friends because of her dog. Overall, Winn Dixie is still her best friend and hero because he helps her to make new friends and he is always there for her. Talk about somebody in your life who is always there for you (maybe a relative, a neighbor, or a friend) and share why he/she is so important.

Book Talk

Since you all are pretty good readers and since you seem to enjoy books a lot, share your favorite book of all time and why you liked it so much. You may even want to give a quick review of the book in case one of your classmates wants to read it!

Friends

I know that I am grateful to God for all of the amazing friends He has blessed me with. They make me laugh and support me when I need it! What are the things that you value the most in a good friend?

Travels from Afar (or Nearby)

Travelling is one of my favorite things to do when I have free time and spare money. I have had great trips that took me far away and nearby as well. Someday, I would like to travel to every continent. So far, I have been to Asia (China), Australia, and of course North America. Share about your favorite family vacation (even if it was in Wisconsin-some of my best travels have been no further than an hour or two away!)

Calling All Football Fans!

If we were to discuss one subject that I know almost nothing about, it would definitely be football! However, since the season is beginning, I know that many of you are already making your predictions about the teams that will go all the way and the teams that are going nowhere! Share your predictions and your reasoning with the class!

Coming Back to School

There are good things and bad things about coming back to school. Share some of your "Yahoos" about coming back and a few of your "Blechs" as well.

Extreme Sports

As I have shared with you in the beginning of the school year, I had the opportunity to go whitewater rafting this summer. I had a blast and the adventure was fun to experience with my family. If you could pick one crazy or extreme activity to do, what would it be and why?

Hurricane Katrina

What do you think we can do to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina? Why do you think such horrible things as hurricanes happen?
