This 4-week series equips junior high students with tools to minimize the drama in their lives.
This product, like all our resources, is a download item.
Jr. High/Middle School can be a drama-filled time in the lives of our students.
Girls might act like “Drama Queens,” through verbal, emotional and social drama.
Guys might act like “Blow-Up Kings” with tendencies to hold in their emotions, react physically, or sometimes even explosively.
Both, however, stem from the same place – our common sin issues and an unhealthy cultural diet of drama that we feed upon.
This series will give students the tools they need to minimize the drama around them.

Drama Queens & Blow-Up Kings Overview
Week 1: In & Out = Heart & Mouth
Bible: 2 Timothy 2:22-24; Matthew 12:34-35; 1 Corinthians 1:10; James 4:1-2; Philippians 2:3-5; Proverbs 17:4; Proverbs 13:10
Bottom Line: Garbage in, garbage out. If we fill our lives with drama, then drama will come out in the things we say and do.
Week 2: Hot ‘n Juicy Gossip
Bible: 2 Timothy 2:22-24; Proverbs 17:9; Psalm 15:1-3
Bottom Line: Gossip is a deadly spiritual sin and a multi-layered problem that is at the center of jr. high drama.
Week 3: White Lies - Little Half Truths?
Bible: 2 Timothy 2:22-24; John 8:43-44; Luke 16:10; Proverbs 24:26; Proverbs 6:16-19; Ephesians 4:15
Bottom Line: White lies can sneak into a Christian’s life because we like to separate the "big sins" and the "little sins,” but God says sin is a sin.
Week 4: Shake It Up! A new mix on Jr. High Drama
Bible: 2 Timothy 2:22-24; Galatians 5:22-26; Matthew 18:15; John 3:16; Matthew 5:44; Colossians 3:12-14
Bottom Line: We need to shake things up and create a whole new mix for our lives - in our schools, with friends, and around our family when it comes to drama.
