10:30AM CHILDREN’S WORSHIP
This summer classes for kids 4 years to Grade 2 are completing a unit on the First Catechism, a question and answer tool for teaching Bible truths in simple, straightforward language. Chidlren will grow in their understanding of God’s great love for and grace toward them through tracing the gospel message throughout the Bible.
Catechism Questions:
Q19: What else did God give Adam and Eve besides bodies? He gave them souls that will last forever.
Q20: Do you have a soul as well as a body? Yes. And my soul is going to last forever.
Q21: How do you know your soul will last forever? Because the Bible tells me so.
Bible Story/Passage: Romans 8:18 & II Corinthians 5:1
Teaching points:
When God made man, he made our whole self with a body and a soul.
The bible tells us that after we die our soul will live forever, and if we love God, our soul will be with Him.
Knowing our souls will live forever with God gives us hope and helps us in times of trouble.
At-Home Discussion Starters:
What are some of the difficult things Paul faced in his lifetime? How did God change his attitude about his life and troubles?
Read II Corinthians 5:1. What do you think it will be like to live forever in the home God is preparing for you? What do you think will be even better than your house or your life now?
