It's a good time to share a rainbow - and maybe a Bible verse of hope.. Lots of people have been putting pictures of rainbows in their windows. I decided to join in. Maybe you would like to join in too.

This could be something that our toddler group families would like to do - I've shared the link below with our facebook toddler group page. You don't need to use paint - any type of crayons, felt tips or collage would be great. I used the paint that I rescued from our store cupboard as we closed!

Hers's a link all about sharing rainbows https://www.popsugar.co.uk/parenting/kids-put-drawings-up-in-windows-during-coronavirus-outbreak-47324740?fbclid=IwAR00_NvkRKY48jobq5St2LT3Gh2sq3HPvAzuQ3jWddlQQSMxF3oGI-cr0n0

The children will make a two-faced puppet of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector.

Follow directions below dear Biblical Educators:

1) Cut out the faces of the tax collector and the Pharisee

2) These are the material you will need:

Ta-ran !!! - The end result

The other side of the craft stick

Send us pictures of your puppets!!!

* Biblical Educators Play - Using soft toys, or puppets, you can develop this story, making it interesting for the little ones to listen to.

* Biblical Educator, take to the class black eyeliner pencil, a small mirror, a face towel

(it must be wet at the moment of the demonstration). Scratch your face (without them to see it) with the eyeliner and let your fingers get dirty with it. They will for sure notice it, laugh, point at you and ask why are you like that. Explain that when we are proud, our heart is just like your face, and it will reflect in your attitudes, words, expression, and ask them if they would like to stay close to someone who is dirty? For sure they will say no! So, we have to clean our hearts, taking away all pride, and by acting in a humble way.

* Writing down everything that showed pride in us - give 2 papers, it can even be cut in hearts shapes, in one children will write everything that they used to do that showed pride; in the other they have to write what from now on they will do differently.

Leitura Bíblica: Jeremias 17.9; João 4.23,24 e Romanos 8. 26.

Memorizar: "O mesmo Deus de paz vos santifique em tudo; e o vosso espírito, alma e corpo sejam conservado íntegros e irrepreensíveis na vinda de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo" (1ª Tessalonicenses 5.23).

Vocês sabem o que a bíblia diz sobre o ser humano? Não. Bom, a bíblia diz que o corpo humano é constituído por três partes: corpo, alma e o espírito.
O corpo é a parte mais externa. Quem pode me dizer quais são as partes que temos no corpo? Mão, pé, perna, cabeça, braço, barriga, e etc. O corpo serve para se relacionar com coisas materiais, ou seja, através do nosso nariz nos conseguimos cheirar, através da nossa mão conseguimos segurar um objeto, com a nossa boca nos conseguimos falar, com os nossos pés conseguimos andar, caminhar e correr, e assim por diante.

Com a alma, o ser humano se relaciona com as pessoas, ou seja, é através da alma que se desenvolvem os sentimentos, o amor, a amizade, a alegria, e também, aqueles sentimentos que não agradam a Deus, com raiva, ódio, ira, e etc.

"Já o espírito do homem se comunica com o mundo espiritual"(Revista). Essa é a parte mais interior do ser humano. É lá que o Espírito Santo passa a habitar na pessoa que aceita a Jesus como seu Salvador.

O corpo, a alma e o espírito andam juntos. Por exemplo, se eu quero demostrar a amizade com um amiguinho da escola bíblica da igreja, eu uso a minha alma (que desenvolve o sentimento de amizade) e eu uso a boca (ação do corpo ) para falar, expressar o sentimento.

A bíblia diz que "devemos adorar em espírito, e em verdade" (Jo 4, 23-24). Então nós temos que adorar a Deus com o nosso espírito, por exemplo, uma pessoa que é surda, se eu falar com a minha boca ela irá entender? Não. Porque temos que falar a língua deles, que é o sinais (libras) para eles entenderem. Isto ocorre com Deus, temos que O adorar em espírito, porque Ele é espírito.

Utilizei este recurso para contar a História Bíblica.

I can Follow Jesus: A Preschool Bible Lesson – Cheri Gamble

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Enjoy this lesson based on Matthew 4:18-22, when Jesus calls his disciples to follow Him. I hope this will help your kids learn that they, too, can follow Jesus and become fishers of men!

Keep serving Jesus!

Gather all the kids together for the lesson time. Then say: Today we are going to talk about following Jesus. As I talk today, I'm going to tell you to do some different things and you need to FOLLOW my instructions and what I am doing do the same thing. Let's practice. (Make sure you do the activity, too . . . remember they are FOLLOWING you!) Jump up on down. (Pause while kids do this), Stomp your feet, (Pause while kids do this), Put your hands up in the air (Pause while kids do this), Sit down and listen to the lesson.

1. Play this fun review game. Use a hula hoop to "catch" your kids! Have them run around while you chase after them. Put the hula hoop around them to "catch" them. When you catch them say, "I am fishing for men! Caught you!" (or something like that). Each time you catch someone, ask him a review question. Use the following questions (or come up with some of your own):

2. Sing, "I will make you fishers of men". Teach the kids motions and have lots of fun with this song.

3. Give the kids pretzel sticks (the small ones) and goldfish crackers. Have them use the pretzel sticks to make a "boat". (You can also give them frosting or something to keep the pretzel sticks together if you'd like. Older kids might be able to use mini marshmallows to connect the pretzels as well.) When kids have their boats created, give them some goldfish crackers and have them pretend to be fishing. Let them eat their snacks, but whenever you say "follow me" they have to put the goldfish down and run to you. Talk about what it means to follow Jesus while doing this activity.

4. Give the kids a copy of the fish from the printable pdf. Have them think about people they can tell about Jesus. Have them write the names of those people on the fish (or they can draw pictures). Spend time praying for the people on the fish, and for the kids to follow Jesus and be "fishers of men".

REVIEWS - Just Us Little Guys

"I loved the first eight lessons. What I probably liked most were the severalactivity suggestions at the end. I could always find one or two that worked great with my class."

- Sandy W. (South Carolina)

"Today is the first time I've seen your site and I just want to take a moment and thank you. I needed a lesson for Sunday School tomorrow and I found one which was just right for me. It had everything I needed right there in one place. You've done a wonderful job with this site and I'm sure I'll be back again. Thank you so much!"

I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful lessons you post for all to use. I have used your lessons often with our preschool Sunday school program. The lessons are Bible based, thoughtfully created, easy to follow, and not time-consuming to prepare. ...Thanks for your great ideas.

"Ms. Sharon, you rock! We have been using your Little Guys "God Loves Me" series for several weeks now. The lessons are simple to understand, fun to teach, and the kids love them! Blessings to you!"

- Carrie M. (North Carolina)

A YEAR of Preschool Sunday School Lessons...

Just Us Little Guys is a year's worth of free Preschool Bible Lessons, which is divided into 7 series.

SERIES 1: God Loves Me, consists of 8 lessons which explore wonderful truths about God's Love for Us!

If you are starting up a program with small children, the God Loves Me series is the PERFECT place to start! If I had to start a program with preschool children this coming Sunday, these eight lessons are the ones I would start with!

SERIES 2: Christmas, contains 6 fun and engaging preschool bible lessons about the true meaning of Christmas!

These lessons are tried and true! (I have taught them many times.) They are fun and easy to do and have lots of craft and game ideas. Also included are narrated Christmas skits for preschoolers to do every week, if you like. Need something more quiet? There are also activity pages with each lesson.

There are also just enough lessons... If you start the Christmas series on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, you should be doing the "Flight to Egypt" about a week after Christmas!

SERIES 3: The Life of Jesus, includes 12 free Preschool Bible Lessons on the life and times of Jesus. You'll have the opportunity to teach children all about things Jesus Did and Said.

These Sunday School lessons for preschoolers and young children contain some of my best lessons and Jesus Chooses His Disciples includes my FAVORITE of all Preschool Bible Crafts: The Fishers of Men Fishing Pole! (This is a really GREAT craft! You've got to try it!)

If you have a time period of about 12 weeks (say between Christmas and Easter) the Life of Jesus Series is really fun to do. Children 4-7 years of age (Pre-Readers) will love the fun activities and crafts that go with the weekly Bible stories!

SERIES 4: Easter, features 8 preschool Bible lessons that will help you teach young children the Easter Story.

The lesson "Friday was Sad, but Sunday was Glad!" gives an overview of the Death, Burial and Resurrection of the Lord, Jesus Christ. The Easter Sunday lesson teaches about the discovery of The Empty Tomb!

The series continues with Easter Sunday School lessons about the appearances of Jesus to His Disciples, including "Doubting" Thomas, as well as the Bible stories of The Reconciliation of Peter, the Great Commission, and The Ascension of Jesus.

These eight preschool Bible lessons feature Easter crafts, games, and activities: including a short Easter skit about "The Story of The Empty Tomb!" and an "Empty Tomb Craft."

SERIES 5: The New Church, has 6 preschool Bible lessons that focus on the Church, beginning with the events at Pentecost and going through the Wedding Supper of the Lamb.

In the first lesson, the children will learn how Jesus sent the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, and how other people then believed at the preaching of the Disciples and were added to the Church.

In " Little Churches All Around" there is a Missions Emphasis that helps children understand how, as the numbers of Christians grew, they began to meet in various locations, and how when they moved to a new place they told others about Jesus and the church continued to grow.

Light of the World/ Salt of the Earth is really two Preschool Bible Lessons in one and will probably take 2 class meetings to enjoy fully. This simple teaching by Jesus illustrates what the church is and what it is supposed to do in the world. (By the way... Singing "This Little Light of Mine" with Little Guys is lots of fun!)

The Bride of Christ helps children understand that God has a plan for the Church. With this marriage themed lesson, the children will learn that "Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb."

These six preschool Bible lessons will help children understand that as Believers in Christ they are part of the church, which has structure, unity, purpose, and an eternal destination that is secure in Christ.

, features 13 preschool Bible lessons that will help bring the Bible Stories in Genesis to life!

Beginning with The Creation, the lessons reveal the Biblical truths contained in Genesis. Following a TIMELINE (which you can easily create in your own classroom), the children will be better able to visualize how the stories in Genesis relate to one another historically.

You will all enjoy the activities, which are as fun and varied as the stories they describe! Live through a rainstorm with Noah and the Ark; have soup with Cain and Abel; and be sure to be there when the kids try and recreate Joseph's Coat of Many Colors! (You'll need extra crayons!)

SERIES 7: Exodus, contains 7 action-packed Preschool Bible Lessons relating to Moses and God's People on their way to the Promised Land.

The Passover lesson helps introduce the Gospel Message, as young children will quickly grasp the similarities between the sacrifice of the Passover Lamb and the Death of Jesus on the Cross.

Use a classroom TIMELINE to help teach the sequence of events in Exodus, and to show how these Bible stories relate to the ones in Series #6 - Genesis... This completes 20 lessons in theOld Testament!

REVIEWS - Just Us Little Guys

"Thank you so much for providing these lessons. We are a very small church in a small community and your lessons make it easy to prepare a children's church lesson, giving parents a chance to devote their attention to the sermon, and introducing the children to the Bible and what it contains, in a lessonperfect for their attention spans."

"I have been a Sunday School teacher for some time and each Sunday I struggle trying to make the lesson exciting and "new" for my students. I look for lessons that are relatively easy for my youngsters, who range from 3 to 9 years in age. I want all of the students to take something from God with them, to carry them through the week.

I am overwhelmed at your website. It is exactly what I have been searching for. There is something for each one of my kiddos, and I can adjust the lesson to be a bit more detailed or keep it as simple as I want for the younger children.

Thank you, thank you, thank you....I am so excited to be able to teach my students with such wonderful new ideas and they in turn will be able to grasp the Word of God easily with your suggestions.

Finally I feel much more prepared when I walk in the classroom. God bless you!"

- Georgeanna F. (Pennsylvania)

"I am new to my job as Christian Ed. Director. Although I spent 35 years teaching 1st and 2nd graders in public school, this new job is totally different for me.

Your site has been a lifesaver for me. Thank you so much for the wonderful lessons that have fit right in with my small group of children. I look forward to more. Thank you again."

- Pat R. (Michigan)

"I love your teaching/ministry focus. I was impressed with the lesson plans, alternate options, the teachers' notes, and scripture references. You even include crafts and activities coordinated with the lessons. I also like that you often include a reference to the previous lesson.

I coordinate the preschool Worship Hour during the Sunday Morning service at our small church and spend hours every week trying to ensure I am provided scripture-based age-appropriate lessons.

The lessons on your site are the most comprehensive scripture-based, age-appropriate materials I have reviewed...

JUST for LITTLE GUYS...

These "preschool Bible lessons" were originally developed to use with Preschool to First Grade aged children. Essentially, any Pre-Reader, who has made it out of the Toddler Room, will enjoy these lessons.

They are designed as a series of lessons. But any one of them may be taught independently, as each addresses an important biblical truth which stands on its own.

Each of these lessons includes enough preschool Bible crafts and activities to keep a room full of Little Guys busy for 30-60 minutes or more!

(Of course, I think you should always have an extra stack of construction paper ready, just in case... With Little Guys sometimes you really do have to be able to pull a rabbit out of your hat!)

Check back at Sunday School Center as we continue to add to this year-long set of Preschool Bible Lessons!

See the titles of the various series below.

SERIES' TITLES of Preschool Bible Lessons:

On a Personal Note...

I hope that you will enjoy using the lessons in Just Us Little Guys. They are simply my favorite lessons!

Teaching young children is one of the most fun things you'll ever do as a Sunday School teacher! Enjoy every minute of it!

May God continue to bless you and your Little Guys!

It is important for everyone to read and study God's Word for themselves. Here are some resources and ideas for helping kids (and adults) learn from reading the Bible.

These bookmarks have questions a reader can ask him or herself while studying the Bible in order to increase comprehension and retention.

A More Excellent Way is a 19-week study of 1 & 2 Corinthians designed for kids.
CBS is the Children's Bible Study, for kids of any age who are proficient readers.
BRBS is the Beginning Readers' Bible Study, for kids who are learning to reading.
Print your desired study in color, double sided. Print the cover separately on cardstock. Spiral-bind it or put it in a 3-ring binder, whichever you prefer.

Prayerfully read through a passage verse by verse. In your own words, write down what each verse says on a notepad or spiral. Prayerfully consider what that means and what application it has for your life. Write what the Holy Spirit reveals to you. *Remember, the text has only one true meaning, the meaning the Author intended. You are not looking for what it means to you, but what it actually means. Be careful to ask God to help you know what the text actually means, and how you can apply that truth in your life. The text has only one true meaning, but it can have many different applications.

I can personally testify to the power Scripture memory can have in a life. I challenge you to try it for yourself and see what the Lord will do in your life when you make Scripture memory a priority. No excuses. You can do it; the Holy Spirit will help you.- Memorize Scriptures with your children. It impacts them to know that memorizing God's Word is valuable, and is something we should do our entire lives. Modeling it for them can help them make a life-long habit out of memorizing Scriptures. Plus, it really is something we should be doing. - Say it over and over in your head when you are falling asleep. - Review previously memorized verses. Keep the cards you write verses on and review them. Or keep a notebook and list the verses you have memorized so you can review them. I have a "pocket" Bible that I use for memorization so I can easily take it with me places. I highlight verses when I memorize them. Then I can go through it and review the highlighted verses any time. This is also very helpful for memorizing long passages, chapters, or even books of the Bible. *I also look forward to my children having this Bible later in their lives, as a testimony to how their mama loved God's Word and hid it in her heart so she could live it in her life and draw closer to God.
Here are some tips.
- Set a measurable, attainable goal. Write it down. Do you want to learn 1 verse a week? 1 chapter a month? Romans 8 by the end of next month? You decide what your goal is.
- Make a plan for reaching that goal. What are you going to do? How are you going to reach that goal? Keep reading for some tips that I am familiar with or that I regularly do. But you might also have some strategies that work for you. Make a plan for reaching your personal goal.
- Start with prayer. Every time to come to the Word of God, come prayerfully. Ask the Lord to help you understand and memorize it. Ask Him to help you apply it in your life.
"I have hidden your word in my heartthat I might not against you." Psalm 119:11
- Learn a phrase at a time. Even when I am memorizing long sections, I work on it phrase by phrase. When I have the first phrase, then I add the second phrase and practice those together. Then I add the next phrase. Don't try to do chunks that are too big all at once.
- Redeem those wasted moments. Recite your verses in the shower, in the car, while waiting for an appointment, etc. It is amazing how much we can learn just by using those brief minutes that are usually spent checking something on our phones, sitting in traffic, or doing a mindless task. Even a very busy person can add Scripture memory into moments that already exist in the day.
- Use an actual Bible when you are memorizing verses. If you have more than one Bible, chose the one you want to use for memorization. Your eyes will learn where different things are on a page. Your brain can use the visual cues to help you remember things. Studying on a device or only with note cards does not provide the visual/spatial context necessary to help with memorization.
- Another way to review longer passages, chapters, or books is by reciting along with an audio Bible. I use the YouVersion Bible app. Pick your translation and passage, and then click the audio. I do this a lot when I am in the car. It is amazing how much less traffic bothers me when I'm thinking about the Word. :)
- Make it a habit. When you find something that works well for you, make it part of your daily life.
*Remember, like all of our spiritual disciplines, Scripture memory is something we do in the power of the Holy Spirit. No matter your age or perceived ability to memorize things easy, you CAN and SHOULD memorize Scripture. Prayer is key. The Holy Spirit will empower you. When you get discouraged, ask Him to help you. Remind yourself to do it in His strength, and not your own. The devil does not want you to do this. You will be discouraged and distracted sometimes. But don't give up. God has all power, and He is for you.
- Still, it can be helpful, in addition to reading your Bible, to write verses on cards or sticky notes and post them in highly visible places. This is especially helpful with meditating on truth throughout the day and reminding yourself of truth that you are struggling to believe or walk in.
- Use songs when possible. Seeds Family Worship has songs that come directly from Scriptures. These aren't just for kids! Adults can benefit from Scripture-based songs too.
- Make the verse a password for getting something. Do you want to roll the windows down? What is your verse? Do you want to pick a song to hear? What is your verse? Do you want to go first in the game? What is your verse? Do you want a ride to that event? What is your verse?
- Use a wipe-off board or similar tool to write it again and again. I write it while saying it out loud, erase it, and write it again. It really helps me. This can be boring for children, though, so I often provide kids with a Memory-Tac-Toe page. See the link below for a Memory-Tac-Toe board, or make your own with your favorite activities.

Prayer is communicating with God. You do not need fancy words or a special formula.
Here are some tips about prayer.
- You can pray anywhere, any time.
- Tell God the truth (about your thoughts, feels, desires, sins, etc.); He already knows so there is no need to pretend otherwise.
- Remember to praise God for Who He is and thank Him for what He has done. Don't only ask Him for things.
- Some people like to use an acrostic to remember to pray for different things.
PRAY can be an acrostic for:
Praise (the Lord for Who He is)
Repent (for specific sins)
Ask (tell the Lord what is on your heart)
Yield (acknowledge your submission to God's will)
- Some people like to use an acrostic when praying for specific things. You can use a person's name as an acrostic to pray for their specific needs. For example, this is what I am currently praying for my church, using the word "church" as an acrostic.
Continual harvest
Holy living
Understand and obey Your will
Revival throughout
Construction and finances (we are in a building campaign right now)
Health and protection
- In addition to their personal requests, you can pray for things by the day of the week. For example, pray for your country on Sunday. Pray for missionaries on Monday, etc.
- Use a cue to pray specifically. When you see/notice a particular thing, use it as a cue to pray. For example, when my fitness device goes off at the :50 of every hour (I know, I need to move more) I pray for my kids. When I drive by the house of the lady from church, I pray for God to bless her. When I pass the memory care facility down the road, I pray for my friend and her mother who has Alzheimer's. When I fold laundry, I can thank God that we have multiple things to wear, and that we will shine for Him wherever we wear it. Whatever is on your heart, look for daily cues that can remind you to pray for them.

In addition to these ideas, many people find it useful to have a tool to help them structure their prayer time and to remember all the things they want to pray about. Here is a prayer journal. There are many other journals and strategies that are great for recording or organizing prayers. This is just one option. ​

FREE Men of the Bible Coloring Page-Joseph | Christian Children's Authors

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This week's free coloring page is about Joseph. I was reading this verse today, and it made me think of Joseph. "Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows." Luke 12:6-7 NIV I know Joseph couldn't have read those specific words of God, but I think he must have understood the truth of them deep in his heart because no matter what he endured, or how others treated him, he was able to say, "And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you . . . But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance." Genesis 45:5-7 NIV.

As you share the story of Joseph with the little ones in your life, you might find it's the perfect time to help them begin to understand that even when things look as if they are going all wrong, God has a plan and a purpose that will prevail and will bring good in the end.

100 Ideas to teach kids the Old Testament

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
I don't know about your kids, but my kids are very kinesthetic learners. They have to move and do things to truly learn something, so I've been obsessively collecting ideas for teaching them about the Bible, and in this post I'm sharing 100 ideas to teach kids the Old Testament.

Blogs that write only about the Bible

To start off I want to share with you a few blogs I follow and websites I consult fairly regularly.

1. Daniel lapbook- I love lapbooks

2. Daniel and the lion's den- fun lion mask

3. Draw Ezekiel's monsters- I love the look on my kids' faces as they pose here

4. Fiery Furnace craft- paper bag crafts are so easy

5. Daniel mini books- cutting AND pasting in one!

6. Fiery Furnace craft 2- there's dozens of fiery furnace crafts for some reason

7. Jonah printables- I love the game here

8. Big fish eating Jonah toy- paper plate craft

9. Jonah and the Big Fish suncatcher- I love how colorful it is

10. Minor prophets lesson- great set of notebooking pages

11. Daniel 1 lesson (eat your veggies)- why don't more people teach this?

12. Jeremiah lesson for kids- Jeremiah has all sorts of fun visuals

13. Ezekiel lesson for kids- Ezekiel, another prophet who God gave weird visions to

14. Isaiah lesson for kids- Great book to study during Christmas

15. Jonah lesson- the milk carton whale is cute

16. Daniel's dreams lesson- seriously such weird visions

And 3 more that don't quite fit anywhere, but I really like them

1. How does the Old Testament point to Jesus

2. What happened between the Old and New Testament

3. How did we get the Bible?

If you have a Bible section on your blog can you leave it below in the comments. I'd love to go through and pin all of your ideas. Or if you pin ideas let me know and I'll follow you on pinterest.

Scripture Reference: Exodus 31:18-34:35

Suggested Emphasis: Obedience means doing things God's way and not our own.

Story Overview:

After receiving the Ten Commandments, Moses returned to Mount Sinai and spent a further forty days. God revealed more detailed laws and inscribed the commandments on stone tablets. The people, meanwhile, became anxious that Moses was gone so long. Ignoring the commandments about worshiping the Lord God only, they begged Aaron to make gods for them. He collected their gold jewellery and made a golden calf. When Moses came down from the mountain he found the whole camp partying around the idol. God wanted to destroy the people but Moses begged for mercy. Moses threw down the stone tablets and broke them. He ground up the golden calf and put the powder into the drinking water and had the people drink it. He rebuked Aaron and he had 3000 of the idolaters executed.

Background Study:

Although the giving of The Ten Commandments is covered in another lesson the events covered in this lesson actually happened simultaneously. The serious nature of the people's disobedience in these verses relates to their blatant disregard for the covenant God has just made with them. His part of the covenant was to protect and bless them and their part was to obey. Moses went back and forth up and down Mount Sinai a number of times in answer to God's call. The mountain shook and the people were witnesses to smoke and thunder and lightening. They even clearly stated their intention before the Lord. There was no excuse for their change of hearts.

"So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all the words the Lord had commanded him to speak. The people all responded together, 'We will do everything the Lord has said.' So Moses brought their answer back to the Lord." Exodus 19:7-8 (NIV)

( Exodus 32:1-6) At the very same time that Moses was up on the mountain with God everything was going terribly wrong at the base of the mountain. Swayed by the people pointing out that Moses had been gone too long, Aaron, himself, gave into their requests and collected their gold jewelry to make an idol for them to bow before. Although he speaks of having a festival to the Lord ( Exodus 32:5-6) he pollutes everything about true worship with sacrifices and offerings before the calf idol as well as all kinds of revelry.

( Exodus 32:7-14) All of this is in stark contrast to the loyalty and devotion God is instructing Moses with on the mountain. Although Moses (and Joshua, who seems to be waiting further down the mountain) are unaware God knows exactly what is happening. The love Moses has for his people is evident in the way he faces God's wrath on their behalf. God is ready to destroy his people and start over with Moses but Moses unselfishly and bravely reminds him of his promises and how far they have come.

( Exodus 32:15-33:6) When confronted by his brother, Moses, Aaron passes the blame on to the people. Many years before when the Lord Spoke to Moses from a Burning Bush Moses expressed feeling inadequate for the task of speaking and leading the people. God told him that his seemingly eloquent brother Aaron would help him. Now, when comparing the leadership of Aaron and Moses it is apparent why God had chosen Moses in the first place.

Even as Moses confronts Aaron and throws down and shatters the tablets of stone the people continue in their revelry. Moses had just witnessed the wrath of God so it is no wonder that the punishment meted out to the people was extreme, harsh and swift and about 3,000 Israelites were put to the sword that day. Moses seems determined to cleanse the group of sin and be the people God has just revealed that they can and should be. As the people moved on from the camp and continued on their journey God tells Moses that an angel will go before them but he (God) will not go with his people ( 33:2-3).

( Exodus 33:7-chapter 34) God was angry with his people but he continued to meet with Moses. Moses spoke up for his people and eventually the Lord relented and accompanied his people. God invited Moses back up the mountain to repeat his covenant and produce the tablets of stone once again. It was evident to all that Moses had been in God's presence because his face glowed so much that he had to wear a veil in front of the people.

Way to Introduce the Story:

Bring two instant pudding packets and ingredients to class today (or some other simple recipe). Have one of the students read the instructions (or you read them aloud if you have non-readers) as you follow the instructions. The first time you make the pudding follow the recipe exactly and set the mix aside. The second time you make it tell the class that you are going to do it "your way". Put in some silly ingredients that you know will now work (soft drink instead of milk for instance). Now compare the two results. "Children, the people who made this packet of mix knew the proper ingredients to use. When I did it their way I made some very nice pudding. The one where I did it my way did not turn out very well, did it? God knows how we should behave. He knows the best way. When we follow the bible and do what it says then we are doing things God's way. Everything will be fine. If we don't obey God and just do things the way we want to do them then our lives will be like this pudding. It will not be a good life! The children of Israel knew what the Ten Commandments were. They knew they should do things God's way but they chose to try things their own way."

The Story:

After Moses told the people all of the Commandments that God had given them, he went back up onto the mountain to hear more instructions from the Lord. While Moses listened, the Lord wrote the Ten Commandments on tablets of stone.

For weeks Moses had been away from his people. Soon they began to wonder where he was. They knew Moses had gone up on the mountain to talk to God but why had he been gone so long? Maybe he would never come down!

"Why should we worry about him? Let's make a god we can see to worship," the people began to say. "That's what the Egyptians did. Let's get Aaron to make us a god!"

Aaron believed in the Lord but he thought he could change God's commands. He thought the people could worship God by using an idol. Aaron told the people to bring their gold earrings to him. Aaron made a gold idol in the shape of a calf. This was one of the kinds of idols they remembered from Egypt. Then Aaron built an altar and said that the next day there would be a festival to the Lord.

Aaron and the people were disobeying God. The second commandment was that they should not make any idols. Even though they said that they were worshipping God, they were not doing it God's way! They were trying to worship God the way they wanted to. It did not matter to them what God wanted.

Even though the Lord was speaking to Moses way up on the mountain, He knew exactly what the people were doing down below. The Lord was angry and told Moses that He wanted to destroy the people.

"Oh, Lord, please forgive your people!" Moses begged. Finally God told Moses to go down to the people. He would not destroy them.

When Moses arrived in the camp he found the people partying around the idol. Moses was so angry that he threw down the stone tablets and broke them. He was very disappointed in the people. He was the leader and he knew that they must be punished. He ground up the golden calf and put the powder into the drinking water and made the people drink it.

He told Aaron that he was very wrong and that he had disobeyed God. Even then, many of the people still chose to continue their wild party instead of listening to the words of the Lord. There was nothing that would stop them. Moses gathered men with swords and about 3,000 people were put to death that day.

Many of the people were very sorry. They knew that they had not obeyed God. They had tried to do things their own way instead of God's way. After this, those who had disobeyed were punished by God. They got sick with a plague.

Obeying God is very important. As time passed God called Moses back up to the mountain. He wrote on more tablets of stone and told Moses that he would keep his covenant with his people. When Moses came down from the mountain this time something was different. Because Moses had stood in the presence of God his face actually glowed. In fact, every time he spent time in God's presence after this his face glowed again. At these times he had to wear a veil over his face.

Learning Activities and Crafts:
(How to choose the best learning activities for my teaching situation) Activities:

Continue to learn the Ten commandments.

Again use books about Egypt to find pictures of some of the idols that they worshipped.

An idol is something we think is more important than God. Make a collage of some things that are idols today. Write the second commandment on the poster.

Discuss why God does not want us to use idols to worship Him (there could be many answers to this).

Compare God and man. Discuss why God should be the one to set the rules.

Story Overview: After receiving the Ten Commandments, Moses returned to Mount Sinai and spent a further forty days. God revealed more detailed laws and inscribed the commandments on stone tablets. The people, meanwhile, became anxious that Moses was gone...

Congratulations go to author David Helm, illustrator Gail Schoonmaker and the good people at Crossway Books for putting out a book that I have read more than fifteen times this year!

If I could pick only one story Bible for my children, The Big Picture Story Biblewould be the one.

Other Bible story books turn Old Testament stories into moralistic lessons. Joseph? Share your toys. Daniel? Stand up for Jesus. David? Be courageous. If these moralisms are your idea of a children's Bible, you probably won't like The Big Picture Story Bible.

But if you are like me and you have long hoped for a book that teaches children the biblical story from Creation to New Creation - a book that anticipates Jesus in the Old Testament and makes his crucifixion and resurrection the proper climax of the New Testament - then this book is for you.

This book is pure gold. Even the illustrations convey a message. The artist thoughtfully and strategically places a "star" upon God's chosen representative, from Abraham to Isaac, from Jacob to David and Solomon. There are future glimpses of Jesus throughout the Old Testament.

The story itself contains one central plot aim: "God's people in God's place under God's rule." This theme provides direction for every story in the book.

The Bible stories are told creatively. Take for instance the preface to Jesus' birth:

Caesar, the Roman ruler, the king of the whole Roman world, began counting all his people to show everyone how great he was. What Caesar did not know was that... God, the world's true ruler, the king of the universe, was getting ready to show everyone how great he was. And do you know how God was going to do this? Not like Caesar... not proudly, by counting all his people, but humbly, by becoming one of his people.

Some stories might be more abbreviated than you expect. (David and Goliath receives two pages within a longer passage about how God keeps his promises to his people. The prophet Daniel is only mentioned in the context of his prayers for the Messiah.) But whereas some of the excitement of individual stories gets left out, the growing anticipation of God's people being under God's rule more than compensates.

The Big Picture Story Bible does not shy away from theology. Of course, theological concepts are kept simple for children, but the author takes great care in pointing to Jesus through the Exodus, the kings, the prophets - reaching back to past events to fill in the meaning of the atonement. All of the stories ultimately point ahead to Jesus.

I fully expect that The Big Picture Story Biblewill one day be considered a classic Storybook for children. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Our son loves it, and we do too. It has been a tremendous addition to our library.
