Come, Follow Me is a treasure—but when it starts feeling like a Sunday School 2.0, youth tune out. The key is to use it as inspiration, not obligation.

Choose One Verse, One Idea Don’t try to cover everything. Invite a youth to pick one idea from that week’s reading that stood out to them—and give them 2–3 minutes to share why. Keep it informal. No mini-sermons. Just honest reflections.

Make It an Interactive Moment Have everyone stand in a circle. Toss a soft ball around. When someone catches it, they say one word that stood out in the scripture or lesson. Keep it light. Keep it moving. Then pause and ask: What did we notice about the words we chose?

Turn Discussion Into Direction One Come, Follow Me verse can turn into an entire month of gospel-centered youth activities. Use the themes to inspire service nights, spiritual strength activities, or even planning youth activities for future Mutuals.

And if you need help bridging the gap, our Forged in Faith lesson packs are built to match weekly Come, Follow Me content. No extra prep. No burnout. Just plug-and-play tools that strengthen testimonies without hijacking the night.
