Introduction:
This is a series of ten ideas about the Bible story of the encounter between Jesus and the rich youngster that you can use. These ideas come from Martine Versteeg from www.kliederkerk.nl (the Dutch version of Messy Church). Messy church is a new form of being a church for children and the people around them. It's inspired by the English Messy Church.
Jesus turns the rich youngster's life upside down. The young man didn't expect this... In this third idea we're going to turn the earth upside down. Are you going to join us?

The rich young ruler, Jesus turns everything upside down
