Talks

Welcome to the Talks (Sermons, Talky bits) Section

Here you will find a list of subject headings relating to talks (sermons) that have been given at youth services and small groups, mainly for young people 11-18. In all the talks you have a basic outline but please feel free to adapt, add to and remove parts you do not need.

The talks on myfishbites often work equally well for adults. But we’ve also created https://myfishtalks.com with all the talks and sessions brought together for use with adults.

We know from 1 Timothy 3.16 that all the Bible is useful for encouraging, disciplining and more. When we look at the life of Jesus in Matthew 4.17, we find that from the moment the devil left him, Jesus ‘began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.” ‘ Jesus encouraged the disciples: As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’ (Matthew 10.7) In Corinthians, Paul exhorts the church to preach the Gospel, saying he cannot help but preach. So we know that talky bits are essential for spiritual growth.

If you want pointers for short talks check out the quiet-times or small group talks. Alternatively use the connectors or meditatures. I if working with people who are not yet Christians then use the assemblies which are packed full of fun, facts, games, ideas, videos and more. Or use the sessions, or mix and match talks with some games and movie clips.
