Reply to "VIDEO/A-V Workshop Lessons & Ideas for Good Samaritan"
Sidewalk Prophets has a number of great songs like "(I wanna) Live Like That."
In this music video, a youth ministry group has created a series of scenes where a young person sees a young Christian "living like that" and decides to become like him. The scenes remind me of the Good Samaritan -- doing right by those you daily come into contact with. The song lyrics dig right into the heart of the parable, "Was I Jesus to the Least of These."
The one young man discovers that the source of the other's perspective and generosity is his faith. The video makes this clear, though it is the key discussion question to ask students: What was the difference between the two young men in the video?
LESSON IDEA: Students can view, discuss, and then create their own version of the video -- brainstorming different scenarios/ways to be like the Good Samaritan.
Tip: Play the song "I want to live like that" while recording the video so that it gets picked up by the video camera/cellphone microphone.
Below are the very discussionable lyrics.
LIVE LIKE THAT
Sometimes I think What will people say of me When I'm only just a memory When I'm home where my soul belongs
Was I love... When no one else would show up Was I Jesus to the least of those Was my worship more than just a song
I want to live like that And give it all I have So that everything I say and do Points to You
If love is who I am Then this is where I'll stand Recklessly abandoned Never holding back
I want to live like that I want to live like that
Am I proof That You are who you say You are That grace can really change a heart Do I live like Your love is true
People pass And even if they don't know my name Is there evidence that I've been changed When they see me, do they see You
I want to live like that And give it all I have So that everything I say and do Points to You
If love is who I am Then this is where I'll stand Recklessly abandoned Never holding back
I want to live like that I want to live like that
I want to show the world the love You gave for me I'm longing for the world to know the glory of the King
I want to live like that And give it all I have So that everything I say and do Points to You
If love is who I am Then this is where I'll stand Recklessly abandoned Never holding back
I want to live like that I want to live like that, I want to live like that
