To begin the session:
Distribute copies of the “Faith and Love” exercise from the activity page, which you can download here. Have learners work in pairs to complete as indicated. After calling time, discuss answers as a whole class.
After the activity, lead into Bible study by saying, “Today, we will study Jesus’ teaching regarding the most important commandments: the directives to love God and love others. Then we will turn to the book of James to see how our actions demonstrate our faith in and love for God.”
To encourage personal application:
Distribute the “Plan of Action” exercise from the activity page. Have class members work on it in pairs. If time is short, use the exercise as a take-home activity.
