What are you encouraging 'our' youth? When a man is bad to you, take your vengeance upon him with the glory of the Divine.
You should teach the youth that Jesus was 12 when he taught in the Synagogues. People today need peace taught to them, not "divine retribution"

Oh, you must read I Samuel 14, my 11 year old son just asked me to read it, he found it on his own and was so excited about the story. All about Saul's very brave son Jonathan, it's a story any kid would love! Read the whole chapter, it's really awesome. Something in there for the youth, and for you.
My favorite, and I'm not sure the age of your youth, but is Timothy. Both Books of Timothy, but specifically the second one. Paul is so proud of this young man, for being so strong in the Lord, even at his very young age. It's cool to create a play kind of in your mind. Paul writes the second letter to Timothy while he's in prison, waiting to die. Imagine someone running up to Timothy, to tell him he's got a letter from Paul... knowing Paul is in prison for his faith. This is the most tender wonderful letter, because as Paul is near execution, and all the other Christians have let him down and abandoned him, he thinks of Timothy, and wants to impart all sorts of wisdom to him. If you get creative, this could be an amazing Bible lesson. And, it's more touchable to kids, Timothy was here after Christ, not before Him. And no, he's not slaying a giant, or defeating an army, but he's doing just what God wants our youth to do today, preach the gospel and share the news of Christ.
Hope this helped ya!

Gideon: He was a meek boy who lead an army to victory
Isaac: He let himself be sacrificed by his father.
Samuel: He listened to God ever since he was little.
Daniel: He still sought to obey God even as a eunuch in a foreign country.
Joseph: Even through the tough times he relied on God to see him through.
That little boy who gave away his lunch. He had no idea what was going to happen, but gave up his lunch for others.

Well there's Mary. She was young when she was chosen as Jesus' mother. I think Joseph (the dreamer, not Mary's betrothed) was young too when his journey began.

How about instead of lying to them actually reading your own bible and teaching them about how much God Loathes Them (Genesis 6:6) wants to keep them ignorant (Genesis 3) makes silly bets on their lives with his buddy satan (Job) brags about creating evil (Isaiah 45 or 48 I think it is) and wants a regular blood sacrifice (usually sheep but sometimes humans) and that they're known as the sheep lol...
