Meeting the Builder

In this series we will explore the people who met Jesus on his journey from

the stable to the cross.

John the Baptist

This Sunday we talked about the way we get ready for someone special. When family and friends came over during the holidays how did we prepare. Did mom cook something special?  Did Dad tidy up the house?  Did you have to clean your room or put on your best clothes?

John the Baptist wanted everyone to be ready for the Messiah. He taught them about God and baptized them so they would have a clean heart. Here is his story.

Meeting The Builder

The Three Wiseman

Today we focused on the Wisemen.  They had such faith that Jesus was the “King of the Jews” that they endured rigorous, lengthy travel just to be able to bow before him.  Jesus had not yet done anything to earn their worahip yet they spent time, energy even risking their lives in order to find him.  Their journey alone is a form of worship.  Here is their story found in Matthew 2.

What are other forms of worship?  What can we do to show we are worshiping the King of the Jews?

Hint:  Remember anything we do can be worship if we are doing it for God

Parents:

We spent part of today’s Kidventure time talking about Daryl, his illness and his need for everyone’s thoughts and prayers. The children worked on a special book that will be presented to Daryl and the family to show that everyone (including the children) are praying for healing. Each child was given a token to help them remember to pray for Daryl when they see it. Please join us in holding Daryl and the family up for God’s grace and healing hands.

The Truth About You…Who I am

I can spread God’s light.

“Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”

Matt. 5:16

This Sunday we heard the story of Peter and the early church. Can’t remember what the early church was about? Watch this video!

  1. What is the church? Is it just a building we go to? No! It’s you and me! God’s family, the followers of Jesus!
  2. Who can be a part of the church/God’s family? (Everyone)
  3. What does the church do? (share Jesus, live like Jesus)
  4. How did the early church share Jesus? (praying, helping, sharing; asking the Holy Spirit for power to heal, do miracles and teach)
  5. How can we share Jesus? We can do the same things the people in the early church did, can’t we? Can you think of anything else?
  6. Who can we share Jesus with? Is there anyone you can think of who you’d like to pray for, help, or share with?
  7. Pray together and ask God to help us to be more like Jesus and love more like Jesus. The more we become like him, the more we share his love with others!

The Truth About You…Who I am

God Is With Me. Alway.

“You go before me and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.”

Psalm 139:5 (NLT)

This Sunday we heard the story of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came down and filled the disciples. Watch these kids retell the story of Pentecost:

  1. In the beginning of this story, what were the disciples waiting for? (the special help
    Jesus was going to send; the Holy Spirit)
  2.  What did they hear right before the Holy Spirit arrived? (a
    whoosh of wind) Then what separated and went onto each of them? (A flaming tongue of fire!)
  3. Then where did the Holy Spirit go? (inside each of them) What did they do after they were filled with the Holy Spirit? (Ran outside, began to teach people about Jesus!)
  4. Where is the Holy Spirit now? (He lives inside people who follow Jesus!)
  5. Will the Holy Spirit ever leave us? What does Psalm 139:5 say? No! When God’s spirit lives inside of us God is always with us. Isn’t that fantastic news?
  6. What is one way you can ask the Holy Spirit to help you this week? (help us love others who are rude to us, be joyful even in hard times, have peace because we know God is with us, etc.)

Take a look at this new song that reminds us that because God is always with us we can be brave!

The Truth About You…Who I am

God Has a Good Plan for Me

“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”

Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT)

This Sunday we heard again about the story of Joseph. You can read Joseph’s story in Genesis 37 or you can watch this video as a reminder.

Man, Joseph sure was having a bad day, wasn’t he? More than a bad day, he was having a bad time altogether!

  1. Why did God let good and bad things happen to Joseph? (Read Genesis 50:20: You planned to harm me. But God planned it for good. He planned to do what is now being done. He wanted to save many lives.)
  2. How can God use bad things for good? If you were Joseph, would you have kept following God during the bad times?
  3. How can we keep following God, even on bad days? (pray, talk to our parents about it, remember that God has a good plan for us)
  4. Can you think of anything else in the Bible that seems bad, but was used by God for good? (Jesus’ Rescue!)

God can take the very worst day EVER…and he can use it for good. If we are a part of God’s family, we can trust that he will always take care of us, even if we go through some bad days. All we have to do is remember that God has a good plan for us and that helps us trust in him!

Watch this video and remember that God doesn’t only have a good plan for you and for me, he has a good plan for ALL of creation!
