Calling God
Materials
Mobile Phone
Activity
1. As you walk into the room, talk loudly on your mobile phone as if you are talking to a friend.
2. Talk about your plans for the day, the things you need to do, ask for advice, ask for some help, etc.. all as if you are simply talking to a friend.
3. End your conversation with, "I have to go. I have some friends here waiting on me"
Discussion
1. How many of you like to talk to friends on the phone?
2. What kinds of things do you talk about?
3. How many of you have a mobile phone?
4. Guess which friend I was talking to?
5. Actually, I was talking to God.
Applications
Talking to God (prayer) is different than talking on a mobile phone.
When talking to God:
1. God is never out of range.
2. We never "lose the signal"
3. The battery never runs dead
4. We never run out of minutes
5. We don't have to remember his number.. just talk!

I like this one! I will keep it in mind to use for my Sunday School class and read "Cell-Phone Christianity" either before or afterwards!
