Every kid matters to God—and that means every kid should matter to us. In this message from Matthew 18:10–14, we look at Jesus’ parable of the lost sheep and discover God’s relentless heart for the one who wanders. This sermon challenges students, leaders, and parents to step into the call of pursuing the younger generation with intentional love, connection, and courage. Whether you serve in youth ministry or simply care about the future of the Church, this message will remind you that no student is too far gone, too quiet, too broken, or too overlooked for Jesus to chase down. Key Takeaways God notices the one that everyone else overlooks. Students and kids carry incredible value and purpose in the Kingdom. The 99 matter—but the 1 needs us right now. Every believer has a role in reaching and discipling the next generation. Revival starts when we go after the ones who think they’re forgotten.
