GENDER
Why are we here? This video explores one of life’s biggest questions by looking back to God’s original design. Kids will learn that humans were made in God’s image, with a clear purpose: to reflect Him, represent Him, and bring His goodness into the world. We’re not just here to sit around—we’re part of God’s mission, and He’s given us a role to play.
FAMILY DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. What are some ways you would describe yourself?
(Let each person share words like “funny,” “kind,” “creative,” etc.)
2. Read Genesis 1:26–27 together. What does it mean that we are made “in God’s image”? How does that make you feel?
3. What’s the difference between letting our feelings define us and letting God define us? Can you think of a time when your feelings changed quickly?
4. Why do you think it’s sometimes hard to believe what God says about who we are?
5. Read Psalm 139:13–14. What do these verses tell us about how God made you? Why is that special?
6. When the world tries to tell you something different from what God says, how can you remember the truth?
7. What’s one way we can remind each other this week that our identity comes from God, not from the world?
(You could write a note, memorize a verse, or pray together.)
