There's going to be a retreat next month for the Youth Group at my church and I'm going to be one of the counselors. Our theme is "Lost and Found" and I need to find verses, passages, scriptures or parables (basically anything) that pertains to this theme. So far I found 3 parables, the lost sheep, lost coin and lost son. If anyone know anymore it would be great. It can be from the OT or the NT it doesn't really matter. Thank You!!

how about using the song Amazing Grace. In the song there is a part that says I once was lost and now am found.

The parables in Luke 15 are the best. Jesus states clearly that he came to seek and save the lost. Luke 19:10
See Also:
Psalm 119:169-176
Jer. 50:6
Ezk 34:16
2 Peter 3:9 Here it says that God desires no one to perish.

Lost son and lost husband, by Soloman lusting after Whats her face. Their son died and Her legal husband dies in the battle. Its a bit of a streach but doable and highly fit for modern morals or should say lack of them. outcome of sin.
