Catalyst 2019-2020

In the Fall, we read through the book of Jonah together; spending time on each verse, asking questions and reading Bible dictionaries, commentaries, and handbooks to discover answers for ourselves. From January until the end of the 2019-2020 school year, Bethel Youth will be journeying through the four Gospels in a similar way. Each Tribe (small group) will have one of the four Gospels and will discover what that Gospel teaches on each subject, theme, or event in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. At the end of each Catalyst, we will share with one another what each Gospel has revealed to our Tribe.
These are the Gospels that each of the Tribes will be reading through: 
          JR High Boys: Mark 
          JR High Girls: Luke 
          SR High Boys: John 
          SR High Girls: Matthew 
As we have a limited time to read through these Gospels as a group we will be focusing on eight topics. However, we also want to offer opportunities to explore topics within the Gospels that we won't have a chance to discuss as a group. Therefore, we will provide resources for members of each Tribe to explore a topic they are most interested in between Catalysts and share (if they would like) with their Tribe or the whole group. 
Here are the eight topics we will cover: 
         1. Four Gospels, One Jesus 
                      An introduction to the four Gospels and the similarities and distinctions between them. 
         2. Preparing the Way 
                     John the Baptist and the baptism of Jesus. 
                     Matthew 3; Mark 1:1-13; Luke 3:1-20; John 1:1-34*
         3. Fishers of Men 
                     Calling of the disciples, the cost of following Christ, and the sending out of the twelve disciples. 
                     Matthew 4:18-22; 8:18-22; 9:9-13; 10:1-42*
                     Mark 1:14-20; 2:13-17; 3:13-19; 6:6b-13*
                     Luke 5:1-11; 5:27-39; 6:12-16; 9:1-9* 
                     John 1:35-51* 
         4. Parables 
                    A selection of the parables and teachings of Jesus. 
                    Matthew 13; Mark 4:1-34; Luke 15; John 10:1-18* 
         5. Who Do You Say That I Am? 
                    Who do the people say Jesus is versus who Jesus says that he is. 
                    
We will review the entire given Gospel for all descriptions of Jesus (i.e. "Son of Man," "Teacher," etc.)  
         6. The Last Supper 
                    Jesus' last moments with his disciples.

         7. Journey to the Cross 
                    Arrest, trial and death of Jesus Christ. 
                    Matthew 26:47-27:66; Mark 14:43-15:47; Luke 22:47-23:56; John 18 and 19* 
         8. He is Risen 
​                    Resurrection of Christ and commissioning of the followers of Christ. 
                    
Matthew 28:1-15; Mark 16:1-8; Luke 24:1-12; John 20 and 21* 
         9. Commissioned Church
