Rising above

Anonymous's picture
Fill up a large jar (larger than a quart, if possible) half way up with popcorn. Take a ping pong ball and push it to the bottom of the popcorn. Put the lid on and swirl the jar around. After a few seconds the ping pong ball will rise to the top of the popcorn. After you show this demonstration, discuss what habits and traits a person needs to develop that would help them rise above the temptation/trials/evil in their lives.
