Write a short scene about a teenager who’s obeying and/or disobeying God’s commandments. Which commandments did your story include? Bring it to Sunday School next week to share. Below is an example:
Dave has been grounded for a month because he took the car for a drive with friends without permission from his parents. Next Friday will be the first night he isn’t grounded, and he has plans to go out and celebrate with his friends. But he is scheduled to work. So Dave decided to call in sick and go out with his friends instead. And since he was short on money, he took some out of his sister’s purse without asking. His sister was upset but she didn’t tell on her brother. She did ask him to pay her back. (Commandments 5, 8, 9, 10)
