9. Receive
Do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair, and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing; rather, let your adornment be the inner self with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God’s sight.
From the First letter of Peter, chapter 3, verses 3 & 4

10. noun: beauty; plural noun: beauties
Engage
Today we think about what is beautiful, how we judge beauty and what influences our decisions.
One definition:
noun: beauty; plural noun: beauties
1. a combination of qualities, such as shape, colour, or form, that pleases the aesthetic senses, especially the sight.

11. Engage Video suggestion … What is beauty? Ted-youth talk
Some discussion ideas …
What is beauty?
How does seeing something beautiful make you feel?
What influences our decisions about what we think is beautiful?
Discussion techniques - Go back to the Bible passage ask “How does the theme link with the Bible passage?”
Discuss the question in pairs for 30 seconds then invite a response from each pair.
Use quick-fire answers e.g. throw a soft bean bag / toy to a student, when they answer they throw it back and you quickly throw to another student.
Simplify the question - Invite quick one-word answers, write them on the board, then reflect on the answers – see connections.
Activity suggestion … At some time today look at something which you thought was boring or dull and see if you can see something beautiful in, or about, it.

12. Respond Amen God, there is so much beauty around us,
[Reflect for a minute on the worship theme and our engagement …]
God,
there is so much beauty around us,
in people, in nature, in the wonderful things that we create.
Help us to appreciate all that is beautiful.
Amen
Prayer / reflection technique – Give a summary of the theme and any responses that students may have made, then invite everyone to be still (remind no books open etc – lessen distraction). To pray or reflect on today’s worship. Be quiet for one minute. Then say the prayer …
