Kid’s Life Wednesday Series “Devoted to His House”

Posted on by
Reply

Wednesday Nights in March, our kids will be learning about being devoted to His house. Our main verse will be  “Consequently , you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.” Ephesians 2:19-20 (TNIV)

 

 

Here’s some of the things we want kids to get out of this series:

  • The Church is the family of Christ on earth.
  • The Church is all about God and people.
  • The Church is a community of people who love what the Lord loves – His Church & people.
  • The Church is the bride of Christ on earth.
  • Develop a heart and passion for the Church as Jesus does.
  • The Church is the plan of God on earth.
  • The Church is the body of Christ on earth and we all have a place in the body.
  • The Church is not built on the gifts and talents of a few but on the sacrifice of many.
  • As you plant yourself in God’s House you will begin to flourish.
  • When the Church is healthy, it will grow.
  • God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and prosperous lives in order to help others more effectively.

Wednesday Nights in February our kids will be learning about being devoted to His Word. Our main verse will be “For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 (NIV)

 

 

Here’s some of the things we want kids to learn in this series:

  • God speaks to me through His Word.
  • I know my Bible and how to use it.
  • Followers of Jesus read the Bible.
  • The Word of God is a powerful tool for my everyday life.
  • God’s Word gives me an example to follow.

Next Kid’s Life Sunday Series “The Holy Spirit In My Life”…

Posted on by
Reply

6 Week Series running Sunday, January 29 – Sunday, March 4.

We believe that the Holy Spirit is still at work in the earth today. Not only that, but there is no “Junior Holy Spirit” in the Bible. The same Spirit that filled and empowered the early church is available for kids today. In Acts 19:2 Paul asked certain disciples if they had received the Holy Spirit. They replied that they hadn’t even heard of the Holy Spirit. I believe the first step in making sure this generation is filled with the Spirit is to first introduce them to Him. This series will be instrumental in doing that.

Lesson titles:

  • The Holy Spirit In Me
  • Does God Speak To Kids?
  • The Inward Voice
  • Filled With The Spirit
  • Why Tongues?
  • Gifts of the Spirit

Your child can get a head start on memorizing the bottom lines and verses here. We will be launching our Bible Bucks Store in correlation with this series. Kids will be able to save up points (all recorded in secure database) to purchase various prizes.

Kids are reading their Bibles!

We just finished our first month of our Word Challenge in Kid’s Life. The K- through 5th graders were challenged with reading the book of Mark during the month of June. We had eight kids who finished their reading and received three prize choices from our “He is a rewarder” box. Congratulations to Kathryn, Victoria, Bella, Lilliana, Zachary, Nelson, Parker and Lilly on finishing the first challenge!

The challenge for the month of July is the first 14 chapters of the book of Acts. As parents, you can read out loud to any of your children who can’t read for themselves. I am doing this for Lauren, my upcoming kindergartener, and she loves the time we spend together in the Word.

Kids Life Series Wrapup: “I Love My Bible”

Posted on by
Reply

We are wrapping up a great Wednesday night series with our kids. For seven weeks we talked about how much we love our Bibles in “I Love My Bible”.

Our theme verse was: “For the word of God is living and powerful.” Hebrews 4:12

We even had a song to help teach us the books of our Bible:  I Love My Bible

 

Here’s what we compared the Word of God to each week:

  1. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is Like BREAD
    • We have to mix faith with the Word for it to work for us. (Like yeast and dough)
  2. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is Like LIGHT
    • God’s Word can keep us from stumbling in the dark. (Like a flashlight)
  3. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is Like a SWORD
    • When we speak the Word it destroy the enemy’s plans for us. (Like a machete can easily pop balloons)
  4. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is Like SHIELD
    • We are protected from harm when we practice God’s Word. (Like a soldier hiding behind a shield)
  5. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is Like a ROCK
    • We stand on God’s Word and it’s steady and safe. (Like a house built on rock and not sand)
  6. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is Like a MIRROR
    • We can look at the Word to help us make changes. (Like looking in a mirror helps us to fix our appearance)
  7. I Love My Bible, Because God’s Word Is SWEETER THAN HONEY
    • God’s promises are sweet. (Like ice cream and all its toppings)

Thanks to Church on the Move in Tulsa, OK for providing this series for no charge.

Don’t forget to join us next week (July 6th) for the start of Wet Wednesdays!
