Jesus Teaches Individuals

Jesus always had and has time to listen, help, and instruct those who come to Him.

Nicodemus Talks with Jesus — John 3:1-21

Nicodemus wanted to know God’s plan. He went to talk with Jesus at night. Jesus told him God’s plan, but Nicodemus had a hard time understanding. Jesus gave illustrations that tell us that the only way we can really know God’s plan is to experience it. Jesus came as part of God’s plan to save all who will turn to Him. He said, “I, if I be lifted up, will draw all people to myself.” John 12:32. Remember John 3:16-17. The kids will have an opportunity to retell the story of salvation through the Savior Souvenirs.

Jesus Teaches Others

Jesus and the Children — Let the Children Come to Me — Mark 10:13-16

Jesus was busy teaching. Was He too busy to see the children? The disciples assumed He was, but Jesus was not. He invited the children to come and He blessed them. Are we too busy to see the people that have come to see us; to ask about God; to ask for a favor? This lesson hits home for me. Oh to be like Jesus!

The Good Samaritan — Love One Another — Luke 10:25-37 — Teaching the Leaders of the Law

What are the two greatest commandments? Love God and Love your neighbor as yourself. Who is your neighbor? Jesus responded with the story of the Good Samaritan. In this presentation, we read the account from the book of Luke. We reenact the story and learn some basics of first aid. The craft reminds us to love one another.
