Mettle is an ongoing programme, designed to build the essential Christ-like qualities of courage, spirit, and character that will help 14-18s make informed choices. Easily adaptable for groups of any size, and with or without church background, the resources are flexible, so you can choose the sessions most relevant to your group.

Mettle works through 3 key activity areas:

Core sessions
Mettle aims to teach the basics of Christianity and develop Christian knowledge and experience in young people. Core sessions are mandatory and form the central part of the programme, allowing for discussion and developing biblical understanding
Hot Potato sessions
With a choice of challenging and stimulating sessions these aim to get young people talking openly and responding positively to peer pressures and hard-hitting issues.
Wild Card sessions
These suggest ways to vary the programme, with socials or practical activities and the chance to impact the local church and community.

As part of our commitment to helping 14-18s discover and develop a living faith in Jesus Christ, we are producing Mettle Devotional Notes, written for young people to encourage regular, guided, personal prayer and Bible study.
