Could you be a light in the darkness?

Are you ready to be sent to teach young people like ‘Ashley’ about the Christian Faith

‘Ashley’ is a typical young person in the UK: they are growing up in a non-Christian home, and have no contact with their local church. Ashely is in the dark when it comes to the Christian faith. What hope does ‘Ashley’ have of hearing what Christians believe about Jesus from committed, skilled and passionate followers of Jesus?

‘Ashley’s’ typical school day often starts with an assembly, considering topics such as forgiveness. ‘Ashley’ enjoys RE, and was particularly intrigued by the lesson looking at what Christians believe about the resurrection of Jesus. ‘Ashley’ has started attending a lunchtime club where they can listen to other people’s ideas and beliefs and are able to ask their own questions. They have been exploring the theme ‘God’s Love is…’. ‘Ashley’ now understands, engages with and responds to the Christian faith on a regular basis. ‘Ashley’ attends a school where crossteach leads these various activities – there is a light in the darkness.

How can we teach young people about the Christian faith unless people willing to be a light are being sent into schools? Do you want to be part of a team that teaches young people like ‘Ashley’ about the Christian faith on a regular basis? Could you be a light in the darkness?
