Asking For a Friend

Your students are already asking these questions — about AI and faith, crushing loneliness, self-worth that feels impossible to find, and whether church is even a safe place anymore. This 4-week youth ministry sermon series gives you biblical frameworks to tackle the hard topics head-on, helping teenagers discover what Scripture actually says about the issues keeping them up at night. Asking For a Friend creates space for honest conversation while pointing students to real answers from God's Word, not just feel-good platitudes. Each week equips your youth group to process cultural challenges through a gospel lens, from navigating technology and spirituality to understanding their identity in Christ and learning to trust the church community. Give your students permission to ask the questions they're already googling — and walk them toward truth that actually transforms.
