Our young people have questions about sex, dating and relationships. Are we creating safe spaces for them to find answers?

In a world where social media, pornography and popular culture are shaping young people's understanding of relationships, the Church cannot afford to remain silent.

Developed as a companion to Sex, Dating, Relationships & Everything In Between, this practical 12-week facilitator manual equips youth leaders to have honest, engaging and biblically grounded conversations with teenagers about some of life's most important and challenging topics.

Across 12 interactive sessions, young people will explore:

• Identity, purpose and healthy relationships

• Dating, boundaries, red flags and wise choices

• Heartbreak, breakups and singleness

• Pornography and its impact on relationships

• God's purpose for sex and managing sexual desires

• Recognising abuse and finding support

• Navigating social media and online relationships

• Understanding abortion with truth and compassion

• Moving forward with hope, purpose and a practical plan for healthy relationships

Each session includes biblical teaching, real-life stories, interactive activities, small-group discussion questions and practical take-home challenges. The manual also provides facilitator guidance, anonymous question prompts and printable worksheets.

Originally developed with Fijian young people in mind, this resource encourages churches and youth groups to break the silence around difficult subjects and create environments where teenagers can ask questions without shame or embarrassment.

Because if we don't talk to our young people about sex, dating and relationships, someone else will.
