Prepare a tent, large screen, box, or other object to hide in or behind. On the back of the screen or inside the tent write the words: “He who conceals his sins does not prosper,
On a large white board or poster write: but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy” Proverbs 28:13.
Read the power text, divide the class into groups of three or four, and ask them to ‘paraphrase’ the text in today’s modern language. Give them two minutes to complete the assignment; then ask for their paraphrases. Say: So this text says that if we hide our sins we’ll be a failure, but if we own up to our problems or wrong choices God will show kindness to us.
Invite the students to come up in their groups, stand inside the tent/behind the screen, and recite the first part of the text, then step outside the screened area and recite the last part of the text. Repeat with each group.
