More Bible Study Topics for Youth

11. Dealing With Doubts

Many teens struggle with doubts about their faith, and that’s okay. Study people like Thomas (John 20:24-29), who came to a deeper faith. Encourage teens to ask questions and seek truth.

Key Verse: John 20:29 – “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

12. Living a Life of Integrity

Integrity is critical for personal and spiritual growth. Study Joseph in Genesis and how he stood steadfast amid challenges. Teens can explore ethics, honesty, reputation, and making the right choices.

Key Verse: Proverbs 10:9 – “Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out.”

13. Forgiveness: How Do I Let Go of Hurt?

Forgiveness is a tough topic! Teens often deal with broken relationships or hurtful situations. So study Jesus’ teachings on forgiveness and the freedom it brings.

Key Verse: Colossians 3:13 – “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

14. What Is Love? Understanding God’s Love

Through media and culture, teens are bombarded with distorted ideas of love. First, help them understand God’s unconditional love. Then explore how it shapes their relationships.

Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 – “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.”

15. Serving Others

Finally, students are eager to make a difference in the world. A Bible study on service can look at Jesus’ example of servant leadership (John 13:1-17). Then brainstorm practical ways to serve in the church and community. Explore how serving others reflects God’s love and transforms the giver and the receiver.

Key Verse: Galatians 5:13 – “You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.”
