lesson plan

Faith When You Cannot See

A discussion-based youth lesson about trust, uncertainty and taking the next faithful step.

Begin with a story

Ask the group to name something they trust without fully understanding how it works. Move from everyday trust toward the harder questions raised by faith.

Read and notice

Read John 20:24–29. Rather than criticising Thomas, notice what Jesus does with his questions. Compare the story with Hebrews 11:1.

Discuss

  • Is doubt always the opposite of faith?
  • What is the difference between evidence and certainty?
  • What might one faithful next step look like this week?
