Though Belgium’s large cathedrals once served as houses of worship, they are largely empty today. The spiritual condition of the country is largely spiritual apathetic, with less than one percent of the population being evangelical Christian.
Thomas Sieberhagen, his wife Holly, and their three children live and serve as missionaries in Belgium.
The Sieberhagens started an arts center to form a community through which they can build relationships and share the love of Christ. On Sundays a church plant meets in the art center space.
Thomas shares how the account of Daniel and his friends in Daniel 1:5–9 shows how young people were able to take a bold stand for the Lord by being rooted in the Word of God.
Thomas challenges students to connect to others through their interests, including art, music, films, and even comic books as a way to share the hope of Jesus.
Involve your teenagers in ongoing missions discipleship and empower them to discover their own roles as disciples of Jesus who live on mission. Through each unit of Missions Journey: Students, teens will meet missions personnel serving all around the world, be encouraged to grow in discipleship, and become active agents of gospel change in their own communities.
This fully-digital resource contains plans for four weekly sessions, including links to the missions videos, missions project ideas, supplemental activities, prayer activities, and a leader devotion.
This material is designed for students in grades 7–12. WMU recommends adult leaders preview all lesson and video content before sharing it with their students.
