Grow:
Message your coach the answers to these questions:
- “You can’t replicate what you haven’t experienced.” Where are the opportunities to grow in your own discipleship to Jesus? How will you seek to grow in those areas? Who can you bring along to help?
Go:
- Commit to reading one chapter from the Gospel of Matthew each day and ****share one thing you learn with someone in your life. This exercise will not only help you keep your eyes on the One this is all about, it will also give you reps talking about the Bible with others. A really easy way to do this would be to start the Bible Plan, Learning the Jesus Way of Life, with your coach.

Message your coach the answers to these questions:
- “Be with Jesus. Become like Jesus. Do what Jesus would do if He were you.” In this season of your life, what does it look like for you with be with Jesus? In what area do you see yourself becoming more like Him or needing to become more like Him? How will you practice doing what Jesus would do if He were you?
Go:
- Continue reading the Bible Plan: Learning the Jesus Way of Life with your coach.
- Add a few minutes of silence and solitude to your Bible reading time this week. Set a timer for 5-10 minutes, get still and quiet, and just be with Him. This will strengthen your relationship with Jesus and help train you to hear His voice in the midst of the chaos and crazy that is often youth ministry.
