Your Grace Kids resources for the week of September 14

REVIEW Read 2 Samuel 6-7

WATCH: What’s in the Bible – The Davidic Covenant

BIBLE PROJECT- COVENANTS

The Bible’s main way of talking about God’s relationship to humanity is the image of a partnership. This video traces the way God entered into a series of formal relationships with various human partners in order to rescue the world through Jesus, the ultimate covenant partner.

We are finishing up our last Journey Lesson this week! We are praying that your family was able to get a glimpse and experience what it looks like to be a Christian world family.  How will we live it to become a family on mission with God?

LESSON 15: JOIN THE TEAM

Focus on the “Study It” section and “Discuss It” sections in the Lesson.  Read the account of Jesus’ calling the first disciples in Luke 5:1–11.

What does it mean to be a World Christian? What is God asking your family to do with the gifts and resources with which He has blessed you?

PARENTS, YOU TAKE THE LEAD! 

Continue reading the history of David’s rule.  You may want to spread the reading out over several days.  2 Sam. 9:1-15;  2 Sam. 11:1-27; 2 Sam. 12:1-25.

DISCUSS: God forgave David for his sins, but sin always has consequences. When we sin, God forgives us because Jesus faced the consequences for our sins when He died on the cross.

LESSON 15: JOIN THE TEAM (continued)

Read Acts: 2:42-47, Acts 4:4, and Acts 11:21 

Discuss how your family can “Experience It”.   Cut open an apple and count the seeds. If each seed were planted, how many new apple trees would there be? Each new tree you plant could produce about 6,750 apples a year, for 100 years. Now that’s multiplication. 

Finish up with the “Map It” section.
