When a person meets Christ a change occurs. Their identity, their actions, and even their thoughts will change over time. Some changes may be immediate such as they are now called "Christians," and "children of God" etc. Other changes may take a lifetime. A classic youth game, known as "Buzz", is used along with famous Bible Characters to illustrate some of the changes that occur when someone puts their faith in Christ or God.
This learning game is a great way to introduce the concept of obedience to God. It can also be used for famous Biblical personalities that practiced hearing God and obedience to Him.
Using the game of “Earth!” “Water!” “Air!” or “Fire!” youth will discuss how our actions affect our testimony for Christ. The game will stimulate discussion regarding some of the issues regarding Christian freedom, God's forgiveness, and our our actions, words and attitudes affect our testimony as Christians.
Failure is an event not a person. Whatever resolution you may have failed to keep can be started again and again, at any time if it is for all the right reasons.

These New Year Resolutions, while funny, are also a bit sad because I know some youth who have made similar commitments for the upcoming year. In fact I have made a few of these myself. We all know what we should do, but it is so easy to make excuses for ourselves.
In general, each new day is like the one before. There really is no reason why New Year's Day should be any different than the rest of the days of the year. There is no difference between December 31 and January 1. Nothing special occurs at midnight on December 31. But for many, the New Year is a day to reflect on the past and look to the future. In fact the name of the first month of the year, January, is derived from Janus, a two faced Roman deity that looked both backwards and forward at the same time. January 1st is a time of new beginnings, of getting a fresh start, of letting go of the things from the past that might hold us back and pressing forward. If that sounds familiar, you might recognise it as a concept, not unique to the Romans but a Biblical concept as well.
The TV show Jeopardy, is a great game for the review of Biblical lessons. It’s also great to see how much people really know about stories that they hear all the time. In this Christmas Jeopardy game, the focus is on Mary.
