Love and Relationships
Relationships are tricky. The world and God’s Word have two very different approaches to healthy relationships. We even see that 57% of Christian teens believe that sex outside of marriage is okay (Global Youth Culture). We have an incredible opportunity for discipleship here! This Toolkit will equip you with the best research and resources Feed has to offer when it comes to love and relationships!
Research
Research provides the insight we need to effectively guide the next generation on their faith journeys and is central to everything we do and create at Feed. Our team has created research resources that will practically equip you to minister to Gen Z in an effective and meaningful way.
Use our research to help inform and frame your ministry strategy! You can also use it to educate yourself and your youth ministry team about the unique needs of Gen Z.
Check out some of the discoveries we’ve made about Gen Z here: GYC United States Report (see page 24 “Let’s talk about sex.”)

Small Group Series
We know it can be hard to engage teens in meaningful conversations about God’s Word every week, so we created a small group series to take some of that weight off. These small group series are designed to help you create a space for open and honest conversations as you take a deep dive into specific biblical themes as well as hot topic issues. Every lesson contains an icebreaker, short video, Bible passage, and discussion and application questions.
Use our series with small groups, school clubs, or as a content resource for sermons!
We want to give you INSTANT access to the first lesson of our series What Is Love? HERE!

Insights
Imagine if you could get a realistic look into how the young people in your community view their faith. That’s why Insights was created! It’s a library of micro-survey tools to help youth leaders measure the effectiveness of their youth ministry and the spiritual health of their youth.
We want you to be able to test the survey Love and Relationships today. Experience it for yourself HERE!
Also, you can check out what an Insights report looks like HERE.
To access the full Insights library and share your first survey, head to insights.feed.bible and set up your FREE account.
Feed Lead
Feed Lead is a collection of videos designed to equip you and your team with innovative approaches to youth ministry. Lead videos are short and compelling, highly practical, and easy to share with your team!
Watch Lead videos as a series or one at a time. We’ve made it easy for you to share videos directly with your ministry team–no login needed! Some of our videos also include a lesson guide–check them out to dive deeper into reflection and discussion.
Creating a space for students to discuss sensitive issues and ask hard questions can be a little scary. Check out “Mapping the Journey” here to learn how you can approach these conversations and become your students’ companion on their faith journey.
