Last week I helped at the local kids holiday club run by Splash (for Schools and Communities) and it was b
rilliant! I haven’t helped for about 4 years and it was good to be back.
Hard work and all that but very rewarding. It was fantastic to see how hungry kids are to know about God! I was leading the oldest group with someone called Rachel and in our group times we had some really deep discussions with questions that I would struggle to answer an adult on, let alone 11 year olds!
Our discussions about the bible story for that morning sparked talk on all different aspects of the Bible, Christianity and my faith as a whole, it was really challenging but awesome to have the opportunity to think about and have a go at answering the questions! I can’t say I got the answer across perfectly every time but hopefully I gave them something to think about!
Some examples of questions we got asked
- What is hell like? (direct and to the point don’t you think!)
- Will my family go to heaven if I am a Christian and they aren’t?
Bring on next year!
