This series is about growing through struggle and perseverance. The win is for students to value personal growth. The focus that will separate each of the three messages is the illustration that gives imagery to the message. For example: Rooted = tree roots, Planted = dirt, Thrive = valley. Teach students how to grow through struggle, how to thrive in this life as opposed to just surviving, and how to grow where they’re planted. Walk through how sometimes God brings struggle into our lives because we won’t grow without it. Growth only happens when we’re planted in the Body of Christ and can go through it together.
