A church youth-group game or growth exercise focused on anger. Scripture: Proverbs 4:23. Workshop exercises: 1) Introduce the theme and read Proverbs 4:23. 2) Label four corners with four possible responses related to anger. Read scenarios and have students choose a corner, discuss why, then allow them to move after hearing other perspectives. 3) Ask students what they learned about anger. 4) Have each participant choose one practical way to apply the lesson this week. 5) Close with a short prayer or optional reflection.
Teaching notes: Keep the activity age-appropriate, voluntary, welcoming, and centered on Christian character. Use Proverbs 4:23 in context and invite discussion rather than forcing personal disclosure. Adapt for group size, mobility, disability, available space, and time. Avoid humiliation, hazing, dangerous physical contact, elimination that repeatedly excludes the same youth, or sharing private information. Maintain normal church safeguarding and adult-supervision practices.
