FREEDOM is a 4-week youth ministry series on how Jesus sets us free from sin, perfection, religion and shame.
Students often feel the pressure to live up to the expectations of others or expectations they put on themselves. Jesus offers a different path. The path of freedom.
For a limited time, you also get four bonus Bible studies on the Freedom to Serve, Forgive, Suffer & Love.

5-Pack of Games
This teaching series is packaged a little different than others. Instead of each lesson including an opening game, you're given four lessons and a five pack of games. That way you can mix and match the games to whatever lesson you want (and you get one bonus game). Each game connects to the series theme of Freedom.
