For Girls Only Main Point: This discussion highlights the importance of being pure from a guys’ perspective. Hearing opinions on purity from female role models is effective, but hearing those opinions from cute guys with high standards will have maximum impact and create a great dialogue. Supplies: 1. Recruit 2-4 secure, and faith-strong guys to impact a girls-only discussion on purity. Your brave guys are to dress up as girls, burst into the meeting at a prearranged time, and announce that they’re on the hunt for some cute guys! 2. Anything you need for your challenge or game. Girls arrive:
Bring it Together: (about 15 minutes after start time) "Hey, glad to see you all here. Welcome to INSERT NAME OF YOUTH GROUP!” Introduce New People: Give students a Blow-pop, Skittles, or Snickers bar, etc. Youth Challenge or Game: Choose an anywhere game or crowd breaker from our Games page (CLICK HERE) Invite two students to volunteer and challenge one another. (Soda Slam, Surgical Glove Blow-up, Joust, or just a burp contest. Be creative!) Announcements: Upcoming activities, events Discussion Starter: This discussion starter only works if you have a couple mature guys that have a strong relationship with the Lord that are willing to help. They need to be able to: 1. Act out how Christian girls SHOULDN’T act, and 2. Be able to honestly verbalize what they are looking for in a “woman of God.” Before you begin your regular meeting, let girls know that a few new girls will be visiting but are running late. Say that tonight you’re going to talk about purity and have a couple of time-killing opening comments to keep it going for the first minute or so. When your “visitors” enter, allow them a few minutes to ham it up in their best falsetto voices, describing what they do and don’t look for in guys, and how they plan to go about getting their guys. If time, allow the girls (the real ones) time to ask these visitors additional questions about their dating habits. After a few minutes allow your visitors to leave the room, change into their regular clothes, and rejoin the meeting. Ask the guys to share from their perspective why purity is important to them and why a girl who’s strong in her faith is just as important, what other qualities they look for in girls, how important appearance is to them, and how girls’ dress (modest or immodest) affects them. Then dismiss the guys and have the group of girls discuss the following questions: 1. What is the first thing that attracts you to a guy? (looks, smile, the way he dresses?) 2. Have you ever met a good looking jerk? If so, are looks the only thing you should look for in a guy? Explain. 3. How important is purity to you? Why? 4. What’s the most important quality you look for in a guy? 5. The least important? 6. Would you want a guy to like you only for your looks? Why or why not? 7. What would you like a guy to look for in you? 8. How much time to you focus on that (your answer to #7) vs. how much time you focus on your looks? Does your time dedicated to each make sense? 9. Would you compromise your beliefs or standards for someone you might date? 10. What is one thing you can do to focus more on developing your standards and beliefs. Wrap-up: Pair the girls up and ask them to share one thing that was said that made them think about purity in their life. Have them pray for each other, reminding them that what they’ve shared with one another must remain confidential. Write yourself a note to follow-up with your girls the next week and encourage them to be accountable with each other about what they shared. By Danette Matty |
