How can you show love to someone who is happy? What words help you when you are sad? How can you show love to someone who is sad? In our Bible story today, we’ll learn what Jesus said to someone who was sad.

2.WhatDoestheBibleSay?A

BibleStory:Jesus Uses HisSpecialPowerto Help Materials Open your Bible to Luke 7. The Bible tells us about the wonderful things Bible Jesus did when He was here on Earth. You can help me tell today’s Bible Teaching Tips story. When I say the word happy, you can smile. If I say the word sad, The turn-around face used in lower your head and frown. Be sure to emphasize the words as you tell the Unit 5 could also be used for story. today’s Biblestory.The pattern Everywhere Jesus went crowds of happy people followed Him. The peo. is on page 136. ._-‘ ple wanted to hear Jesus tell about God. They wanted to see Him heal the sick, make people who were Makecertain the children blind see again, and help people walk who understand that miraclesare could not walk Wonderful miracles had happened because of Jesus amaz not the same as magictricks. N: lug power. People can learn how to do Jesus was traveling with His haupv followers and a large group of happy tricks by practicingbut only people. Soon Jesus and the happy travelers came to the gate of a town Jesus and God can make mira called Nain. cles happen. Another group of people were also traveling, but this group was coming out of the town. This was not a smiling group of people. In fact, the people in this group were very j. One woman was dest of all. She was crying very hard. Her son, her only son, had died and her friends were helping her take her son’s body to be buried. The woman’s husband had died before this time, so now the woman was all alone. Jesus saw how the woman was and how lonely she was without her husband and her son. Jesus felt sorry for the woman. Do you think Jesus could help this woman? Yes, Jesus could help because He is God. He has the power of God. Jesus can do miracles. Jesus walked right up to the woman and said, “Don’t cry.” Then Jesus went over to the coffin, or box, in which the dead body was laying, and Jesus touched the box. The men carrying the box quickly stopped. They heard Jesus say, “Young man, I tell you, get up!” Repeat this phrase with the children. What do you think happened? Yes, the son sat up and started talking. He must have been hapuv and excited to see his friends. Jesus took the young man to his mother. She must have been surprised and hapuy too. Now she was not lonely anymore. Her son was alive again. Jesus had seen how the woman was, and Jesus had used His great power to bring her son back to life and make her happy again. The saddest woman was now the happi woman. AU this happened because of Jesus’ power to do miracles. When the large crowd of people saw what Jesus had done, they were amazed. The crowd was now a haupv crowd. The son who was dead was now walking and talking. The woman who was and crying was now happy and smiling. Everyone began to praise God. Do you think the people kept quiet about how Jesus had made the wid ow’s son alive again? No! They told everyone about the miracle they had seen. They told everyone the good news about Jesus. How do people feel when they hear the good news about Jesus’ power? Yes, they feel happy!

I know something even better to tell others. It’s the best news of all. It is good news about Jesus. Show the picture disc of today’s Bible story and attach it to the unit mobile. This picture shows Jesus feeding a huge crowd with only a boy’s small lunch. Why is this good news? It reminds us that Jesus is powerful and that He can do amazing miracles. Jesus could do such wonderful miracles because Jesus is God’s Son! His power in Heaven and on Earth is the best news of all. We shouldn’t keep this news as a surprise. We should tell the good news about Jesus to everyone we know. What good news about Jesus can you tell others?

Use a fan for wind. pillow Bible-timescostume for “Jesus” Come and join me in this special boat and I’ll tell you about a time when cookie sheet Jesus’ grown-up helpers were in a storm, and they were very scared. spray bottle of water Open your Bible to Mark 4. The Bible tells us that one evening, after teach 3-speed electric fan ing people all day, Jesus said to His helpers, “Come with me across the optional:recording of rain and lake.” Jesus and His followers all climbed into a boat and started across thunder storms Lake Galilee. This boat wasn’t a motorboat like we might use. Instead, it Teaching Tips probably had sails so the wind could push it across the big, big lake. See page 177 for ideas on cre Jesus must have been tired. He had been teaching all day. He found a atinga boat For a large class, pifiow, walked to the back of the boat, put His head on the pifiow and went make several boats. to sleep. Have the adult “Jesus” do this. Duringthe storm, you may While Jesus slept, a storm came over the lake. Usually, a storm begins want to darken the room and with a gentle wind. Then the lake water begins making waves. Let’s pre have an assistant flickthe lights tend the waves are small. Our boat is rocking back and forth, but just a lit off and on. However be careful tle bit. Lead the children in gently rocking. Start the fan on low. Then the wind not to frighten young children. gets stronger. A storm must be coming. Turn fan to medium. The wind is making bigger waves and the boat is rocking more. Lead children in rocking a little faster. What’s that I feel? Oh, no! It’s starting to rain. Lightly spray water in front of the fan. The wind is getting stronger. Turn fan on high. The waves are getting bigger. Rock faster. It’s raining more. Spray more water in front of the fan. Do you hear thunder? Have a helper bang on a cookie sheet. Now the lightning has started! Flick the lights off and on. This is a bad storm. The waves are getting higher. Some water is beginning to splash into the boat. Show children how to hold up their feet so their shoes won’t get wet. The boat is filling up with water! Where is Jesus? He’s still in the back of the boat sleeping! How can He sleep during a dangerous storm like this? Doesn’t He care about us? What shall we do? Let’s wake Him up! Shake Jesus; use an excited voice. Wake up, Jesus! Don’t you care about us? We’re in a terrible storm! The wind is blowing hard and it’s raining! The waves are splashing into our boat! We are going to drown! The person portraying Jesus can stand slowly, look around, and say, “Quiet! Be still!” Immediately, stop everything: spraying water, fan, flickering lights, thunder, and rocking. When Jesus spoke, everything changed. The wind and rain stopped. The thunder and waves stopped. Then Jesus spoke to His followers. Let “Jesus” speak again. “Why were you afraid? Don’t you believe I have power to keep you safe in a storm? Don’t you have faith in me?” Jesus’ helpers said to each other, “What kind of man is this? Even wind and waves obey Him!” They were learning that Jesus can do miracles. Jesus is very powerful because Jesus is God’s Son.

LessonAims • Explore what floats and sinks in water. • Describe a time Jesus had power over water. • Identify words and actions that tell about Jesus. • Tell someone about Jesus power this week.

1.WhatIsThisStoryAbout?A

Sinkor float? Do you like to play when you are taking a bath? What happens to your Materials washcloth? Yes, it sinks. What usually happens to your bar of soap? Yes, it large dishpan sinks too. (Only Ivory® soap bars float.) Do you have bath toys that float? I plastictablecloth wonder what things sink and what things float. Help me put items that sink (rock marble, these things in etc.) the water one at a time. We’ll make a pile of things that float and a pile of items that fuat (cork,sponge, things that sink. bathtub toy,etc.) Place a plastic tablecloth under a pan of water on the floor. Gather the children source for water around the pan. Let the children predict what will happen when you put each Teaching Tip item in the water. If an item floats, try to keep it under water. When you let go, it Ifyou have older children, will pop up and float. Encourage the children to observe and talk about what is record allestimates and com happening. Send them to find things in your classroom to test in the water. If they pare their guesses after the bring something that cannot get wet, discuss why water would ruin that item. experiment When you have two piles of things that sink and float, ask the children to count them. Which pile has more? Name the things that sink. Name the things that float. Hold an item that sinks in one hand and an item that floats in the other hand. Which is heavi er? Today we will hear a Bible story about sinking or staying on top of the water.

You’reSinkingthe Boat! Fill a large deep bowl two-thirds full of water and place it on plastic. Gather the Materials children around the bowl. enough pebbles to sinka small Have you ever wondered why some things float and some things sink? bowl Let’s find out by frying to sink this bowl. Show the small bowl. Place the small smallplasticbowl that will fit insidea larger deeper bowl bowl in the large bowl filled with water. Let’s pretend this small bowl is a plavic tablecloth boat. Let’s see how many pebbles it takes to sink the boat. Before you put source for water any pebbles in the bowl, ask each child to guess how many pebbles might be needed to sink the bowl. Count each pebble as the children place them inside the Teaching Tip small bowl. As the “boat” gets closer to sinking, very slowly place each pebble in Trythis demonstration before class.Makesure have the bowl. Build suspense. Eventually, the boat will you sink. Did any estimation come enough pebbles to sinkthe close to the actual count? smallbowl. Remember that the How many pebbles did it take to sink the bowl? Were you surprised more Water you have in the about how many pebbles it took to sink the boat? How did you feel when large bowl,the more pebbles the last pebble caused the boat to sink? If we do this again, how can we you willneed to sinkthe “boat” keep the boat from sinking? (Don’t add the last pebble! Stop adding pebbles.) Conclude that the heavier things are, the easier it is to sink them.

Each time you say “Here I am,’ wait for the children to turn toward you. Do this several times. Remove your blindfolds. How did you know where I was? Good! You used your ears. You could hear me, but you couldn’t see me. How did it feel to be blind? How does it feel to be able to see? Let’s find out how Jesus helped one man who was blind.

2.WhatDoesthe BibleSay?A

BibleStory:Jesus HelpsBartimaeusSee I have told you several Bible stories about the power of Jesus. Do you think Jesus’ power can also help people who can’t see? Yes! Lay your Bible open to Mark 10 on your lap as you tell the Bible story. The Bible tells us about a man named Barlimaeus. Bartimaeus was blind. Each time you hear me say this man’s name in our Bible story, cover your eyes. Be sure to pause each time you say the name so children can cover their eyes. Jesus and His helpers had visited the city of Jericho. As they were leav ing the city and walking on the road to Jerusalem, many people followed them. A man named Bartimaeus was sitting beside the same road. He was asking for help from the people passing by. He was begging for things he needed, such as food, money, and clothing. As Bartimaeus sat begging, he listened to the people walking by. They were talking about Jesus. Bartiniaeus became very excited! Was Jesus near by? Perhaps Jesus would walk right past him. If Jesus was nearby, Bartimaeus wanted to find Him. So he began calling, “Jesus, Son of David, please help me!” “Shh-h-h! Be quiet!” said the people following Jesus. “Jesus, Son of David, please help me,” yelled Bartimaens even louder. The more they tried to stop Bartimaeus, the louder he yelled. Jesus heard Barthnaeus calling His name. Jesus stopped and said, “Bring that man to me.” The crowd went to Bartimaeus. “Cheer up! Jesus wants to see you, so get up off the ground and go to Him.” Bariimaeus jumped up so quickly that he left his coat on the road. He was too happy to worry about his coat. Jesus was calling for him! When Bartimaeus reached Jesus, Jesus asked, “What do you want me to do for you?” “Great Teacher, I want to see again!” Bartimaeus knew exactly what he wanted Jesus to do. Jesus knew Barthnaeus believed in His great power. Jesus said, “Go. You are healed because you believe.” Just like that (snap your fingers) Barthnaeus could see! He could see Jesus and all the people. He could see the road and the trees. He could see the sky and the sun. He could see everything! The man who had been blind was not blind anymore, so we don’t have to cover our eyes anymore. Now we can smile each time we hear his name. What would you do if you were blind and suddenly could see? Would you run home and tell your family and friends? Would you have a big party? The Bible tells us that Bartimaeus (smile) didn’t go anywhere. He stayed right there with Jesus. He didn’t want Jesus to get out of his sight!

Have the children help place napkins and snack items on your table just before parents begip to arrive. Greet each parent and explain that the children are celebrating Jesus as the Son of God.

I Wantto Praise Jesus Materials Give each child one of the coats used during the story review. Have the word word cards and coats from cards from the Step I activities in hand. previous activities We crayons are going to make praise coats to help us name reasons to praise clear tape God. We have learned words that we can use to praise Jesus. They are written on these cards. Point to each word arid say it aloud to remind the chil Recruit helpers to help children dren. Which one of these words that praise Jesus is your favorite? Why? write words on their coats. Give each child a word card and some crayons. Let the children work on the floor or at a table where they have plenty of room. Have them copy their words in big letters on the fronts of their coats. Helpers can print the words for younger children, and the children can trace over the letters. If you prefer, children can simply tape the word cards to their coats. When children have finished, have them put on their coats and sit in a circle. Ask volunteers to stand up and tell how Jesus showed the trait named on their cards. For example, if a child’s coat says kind,” he may suggest a time when Jesus was kind to someone. For ‘loving,’ a child may tell how Jesus loved His friends. It pleases God when we praise Jesus. What can you say to praise Jesus?

v • WhatCanI Doto PleaseGod?A Praise Prayer Materials Let’s praise Jesus in prayer. You can do this at home with your family or none when you pray by yourself. We can praise Jesus when we talk to God at anytime of the day. We can use the words we printed on our coats to praise Jesus. Praying is tafldng to God. God is always listening, and He is pleased when He hears us praising His Son. Let’s praise Jesus by praying the words on our coats. I will start the prayer. Then I will give you time to pray your prayer also. You can say the same words that I say. Dear God, (Have children repeat each phrase together.) Thank You for Your Son, Jesus. Jesus is so (insert a word from a card). Jesus is so (insert another word). Continue to repeat the phrase, using words from the children’s coats. We love You, Jesus. Amen. Take your coat home to help you remember how wonderful Jesus is. Hang your coat in your bedroom or put on your coat when you say your prayers at night. When will you pray? What will you say to praise Jesus?

A large stone was rolled in front of the door of the tomb. stickers. Jesus’ followers were very sad. This was a very bad, sad news day for them. But just when Jesus’ friends thought nothing would ever get better, something exciting happened. Three days after Jesus had died, there was a strong earthquake. The ground shook so much that the stone which had been in front of the tomb rolled away from the door. An angel caine and sat on the big stone. The soldiers who were guarding the tomb were so afraid that they couldn’t even move. What do you think had happened? Yes! Jesus had come back to life! This was very good news—Jesus was alive! Give happy face stickers. Just about that time, some women came to the tomb. They saw the stone had been rolled away, and they saw the angel. The women were very scared. But the angel spoke to them. “Don’t be afraid,” said the angel. “I know you are looking for Jesus. But He is not here. Jesus has risen from the dead just as He told you He would.” What aood news the women heard! Give happy face stickers. The angel told the women that they should go and tell Jesus’ followers what had happened? Do you think the women listened to the angel? Yes, they left the tomb quickly. They were afraid, but they were also very happy. As the women were on their way, suddenly Jesus met them. He said hello to them and talked to them. What good news! Give happy face stickers. Jesus told the women to go and tell His disciples that they would see Him too. Do you think the women did as Jesus told them to do? Yes! They went and told the disciples the good news—Jesus is alive! Give happy face stickers. Jesus did go to see His disciples. In fact, the disciples saw Jesus several times. One day 11 of Jesus’ special followers went to a mountain to meet Jesus. Do you think they were excited about seeing Jesus again? Yes, when they saw Jesus, they worshiped Him. What words do you think they said to Jesus? (Possible responses: “Jesus, You are powerful, loving, and wonderful. You are God’s Son.”) Jesus gave His followers ajob to do. He told them they were to tell everyone that He is alive. Did Jesus’ followers do as lfe asked? Yes, they were excited to do this good news job for Jesus!

We will play a game to help us show joy when we say that Jesus is alive. I am going to tell some things that Jesus did. You may take one step toward me every time I say something that Jesus did. When I say “Jesus is alive,” you may jump two steps forward. You will jump for joy! Call out the follow phrases, one at a time. Let children take steps or jumps as appropriate.

The blanket will be your boat; outside the blanket is the sea. Put your colored paper chair a short distance from the blanket. Have plenty of paper fish ready, but hid red or brown blanket fish-shapedcrackers den from sight. Open your Bible to John 21 and place it on your lap to tell the story. Copy onto colored paper and fi Let’s pretend that this blanket is a boat. There is water all around the cut out the fishfrom page 215. boat.

Everyone, go and sit in the boat while you childcan gather fiveor more of As them. Note: Youwillneed fish listen to the Bible story. soon as the children are settled on the blanket, for the BibleMemory actMty begin. also. After Jesus died and came back to life, He appeared to His friends. When they saw that He had come back to life, they knew He was the Son of God. They were glad to see Jesus again. One day, Peter and six other followers got in a fishing boat. They rowed their boat out into a sea and started casting their net so they could catch fish to sell in the market. They fished all night. They put their fishing net into the water and pulled it back up. Can you put a net out into the water? Allow a child to pretend to do so. There were no fish in the net. They let the net down again and waited. Then they pulled it back up. Ask another child to pretend to put a net into the water and pull it back up. Still there were no fish. The fishermen kept fishing. Down and up went their net. Allow other chil dren to pretend to put the net in and out of the boat. The sun started coming up. Still they had no fish. It seemed as though there were no fish anywhere in the water around them. Look around you? Do you see any fish to catch? Let children look around. There are no fish here, Jesus’ followers thought. Now they would have no breakfast. Now they would have nothing to sell at the market. As the sun came up, the followers saw someone on the shore. They didn’t know who it was. This person called out to them, “Friends, don’t you have any fish?” Cup your hands around your mouth; speak as though you are far away from the boat. The men called back, “No, we have no fish.” Encourage children to shake their heads no. The person on the shore said, “Put your net on the other side of the boat.” Cup your hands again and call to the “followers.” This was a strange thing to say. Did the man on the shore think there were more fish on one side of a boat than the other side? Surely not! Fish swim all around and under a boat. There should be fish everywhere. But the men in the boat had no fish, so they did what the man on the shore said. They threw their net on the other side of the boat. Tell children to pretend to put the net on one side of the blanket. Do you know what happened? Suddenly, the net was so heavy and full of fish that the men couldn’t pull the net into the boat. Toss out several handfuls of paper fish. Quick! Bring the fish into the boat. Allow children to grab all the fish and put them into the boat. Talk about how exciting this must have been for the fishermen. How could this happen? The men didn’t understand. Then one of the men said, “That’s Jesus on the shore!” Sure enough, it was Jesus! Peter was so excited to see Jesus that he jumped into the water and swam to shore. The other disciples rowed hard to get their boat to the shore. They wanted to see Jesus too. Have children pretend to row hard. Jesus had built a fire, and He was cooking breakfast—fresh fish and bread. When the boat came into the shore, Jesus said, “Bring some of your fish here.” Do you know who brought the fish to Jesus? Peter did. He

BibleStory:Peter Helpsa Manto Walk Lay your Bible open to Acts 3 on your lap. The Bible tells us about a man who had never been able to walk. Every one in town knew that he had never walked. Ever since he was a boy he had not been able to run, or jump, or hop. People who lived in Bible times did not have wheelchairs as we do today. The roads were not smooth and there were no sidewalks. When this man left his house, how do you think he traveled? Yes, everywhere the man went, someone had to carry him. Because the man couldn’t walk, he didn’t have a job. Each day someone carried him to a busy place so he could ask people for money. That was how he got money to buy his food. Usually the man asked for money out side the temple because many people caine there every day. Can you show me how the man might have asked for money or food? Have children hold out their hands and beg for food or money. One day the man who couldn’t walk saw Peter and John coming to the temple. Do you remember who Peter and John were? They were two of Jesus’ special followers. The man asked them, “Do you have any money for me?” Peter and John didn’t have money, but Peter said, “Look at us!” The man looked at Peter and John. Then Peter said something surpris ing. Peter said, I have no money, but I do have something to give you. By the power of Jesus, get up and walk!” Taking the man by the right hand, Peter helped the man stand up. Let’s stand up too. Have children stand. Immediately, this man who had never walked one step in his life was standing! He began walking around. Have children walk a few steps. He went with Peter and John into the temple. He was so excited that he jumped up and down! Have children jump up and down. The man praised God for heal ing him. Have the children say, ‘Praise God!” Then the children can sit down. How do you think the man felt now? How had Peter been able to help the man walk again? (Peter helped the man with the special power of Jesus.) Everyone saw what had happened to the man. They were amazed that he could walk. Can you show me some looks of surprise? Have children do so. The people came running to see the man walk—the man who had never walked before in his lifetime! Peter saw the crowd gathering. Peter thought this would be a good time to tell the people the good news about Jesus. Peter told them that he had not healed the man. The man had been healed by the power of Jesus. So Peter told the people how much Jesus loved them. He said that Jesus had died, but God had made Jesus come back to life again. Peter told the peo ple they should stop doing wrong things and love God again. After the man was healed and Peter told the truth about Jesus, many people believed Jesus was alive. Jesus is the powerful Son of God! Peter was right. It was a good thne to tell people the good news about Jesus.

If a - Did you notice that many times fear fried to stop Saul from telling the good news about Jesus? You held up your stop signs three limesl But Saul didn’t let fear stop him. He kept going from place to place telling people how much Jesus loves them. You held up your go signs four times! Would you have been afraid if you had been with Saul? How do you think Saul felt when his Mends helped him? Because Saul was so brave, the church kept on growing. Soon there were many more followers of Jesus in many more places. Have children wave the go signs.

StoryReview:RedLight,GreenLight Ask children to lirse up across the room from you, holding their green “go”and Materials red ‘stop” signs. Even today, fear sometimes stops us from telling others ‘stop” and “go”signsused about Jesus. But we can be like Saul who was not afraid to tell the Good duringthe Biblestory News everywhere. Let’s play a “Red Light, Green Light” game to help us remember how Saul kept telling others about Jesus. I will ask a question. If the answer was a safe lime in Saul’s life, hold up your green signs and . take two steps toward me. If the answer was a scary time, hold up your stop signs and stay where you are. Ask the following questions: 1. When Saul began telling about Jesus, some people were amazed. How do you think Saul felt? (safe and happy) green light 2. What did some people who were friends with Saul before want to do to him? (kill him) red light 3. How did Saul escape over the city walls? (friends lowered him over in a basket) green light 4. What did Saul keep telling people? (good news of Jesus) green light 5. Why didn’t some followers of Jesus believe Saul? (Saul had tried to hurt them before) red light 6. What was the name of the friend who believed that Saul was really a follower of Jesus? (Barnabas) green light 7. What happened when Barnabas talked to the people about Saul? (they became friends with Saul) green light 8. What did the enemies in Jerusalem try to do because Saul was telling about Jesus? (tried to kill Saul) red light 9. What did Saul go to other cities and do? (told about Jesus) green light Wasn’t Saul brave? He kept telling the Good News no matter what. We don’t have to be afraid to tell the Good News about Jesus. There are a lot of people who want to listen and we know that Jesus is always with us.

BibleMemory:Stopand-Say BibleWords r Our Bible Words tell us to tell everyone everywhere the Good News. Saul Materials escaped from danger in a basket so he could tell the good news about flashlight Jesus. Let’s take a Good News walk with Saul and say our Bible Words. I’ll Bible Words shine a flashlight as you walk. When the light goes off, we’ll stop and say the Bible Words. Nothing will stop us “The followerswent every from telling the good news about Jesus. where in the world and told Have children stand in a circle. Stand in the center.

The light is not (Mark 16:20). shining.’ Point to one child and ask, ‘(Child’s name), will you help us turn on the Good News light?” That child should say the verse or lead the group in saying the verse. Turn on the flashlight and repeat the activity. Where did Saul go to tell the good news of Jesus? Do you know any mis sionaries who go to faraway countries to tell the Good News? Who helps them tell the Good News? Who will help you? (Jesus)

(Cross arms over chest, still looking regal.) If you were a prince or princess, what would your life be like? In today’s Bible story, we will learn about a king’s son and his son’s best friend.

The children will Bible put stickers on their strips as you tell the story, and then make bracelets at the colored card stock or construc- end of the story. Open your Bible to 1 Samuel 18. tion paper scissors The Bible tells us about two young men, David and Jonathan. Jonathan star stickers (various colors), was the son of King Saul. Jonathan was a prince and lived in the palace 9 for each child with his father. David was a shepherd boy who loved and trusted God. He didn’t wear a crown or live in a palace. In fact, his main job was taking Cut I• x 8 strips of paper from care of his father’s sheep. David and Jonathan were very different, but they card stock or construction . . . paper one for each child, became best friends. As we learn about their friendship, I will give you some stickers to put on your paper strips. David was a young shepherd boy when he first met Jonathan. David and Jonathan liked each other right away and they became good friends. Let’s put two stars on our strips, one for Jonathan and one for David. Give each child two stickers. Jonathan was so happy to have a new friend that he gave David his royal coat, his belt, his sword, and his bow and arrows. David had never had anything so fine. He accepted them from Jonathan. Let’s put another slicker on each paper strip to remember this act of friendship. Give another star sticker to each child. King Saul asked David to stay instead of going home, so from then on David lived in the palace with Jonathan and his father. A little while before this thne, David had become famous for killing a giant named Goliath. People remembered what David had done, so they praised David and sang songs about his bravery. This made King Saul very jealous. David did not understand why the king was no longer happy with him. David asked Jonathan about it. Let’s put stars on our strips so we can remember how David talked over his problem with his best friend. Give star stickers. Jonathan told David not to worry about his father, King SauL Jonathan couldn’t believe that his father really disliked David. But then Jonathan found out that the king really did hate David. In fact, King Saul wanted to kill David! So Jonathan warned his best friend to run away and hide from the king. As David hid in a field, Jonathan shot an arrow past its mark. That was a sign for David to go away and hide from King Saul. We’ll add another sticker to each strip because Jonathan warned his friend. Give star stickers. Before David left, he and Jonathan made a pledge to be friends forever. They promised that even their children would be friends. Here’s a star for the friends’ pledge of friendship for themselves and their children. Give star stickers.

V After Jonathan and his father, King Saul, had died, David became the king of Israel. David did not forget his best friend, Jonathan. Let’s put stars on our strips because David still remembered Jonathan. Give star stickers. One day King David asked, “Is there anyone still left in Saul’s family? I want to show kindness to this person for Jonathan’s sake.” Soon King David learned that Jonathan’s son Mephibosheth (pronounted Meh-fib-o sheth) was still alive. David sent for Mephibosheth. David gave land back to

r nn V V• -. V 1O -e e’ . UNIT 10, LEsOGN 4 Mephibosheth. He also invited Mephibosheth to eat with him in the palace. From that time on, David treated Mephibosheth as one of his own Sons. Give another star sticker. David showed great kindness to Mephibosheth because of his friendship with Jonathan. Let’s add one last star to our strips, and then we’ll tape the strips together to make them into bracelets. Give the star stickers; then tape the ends of the paper strips together. Make sure children can slip the bracelets over their hands. We have made friendship bracelets to remind us of two good friends, David and Jonathan. Every star on the bracelet is a reminder of things they did to be good friends to each other.

StoryReview:Pictures of a SpecialFriendship Give each child a copy of the pictures of David and Jonathan (page 264). Materials We are going to color some pictures of David and Jonathan to help us copy of p.264 for each child remember their special friendship. crayons As the children color, talk about the pictures. Look at the first picture. Do scissors glue sticks you remember what Jonathan gave to David to show his friendship? (his construction paper royal coat, his belt, his sword, and his bow and arrows) David had never had stapler and staples anything so fine. He accepted them from Jonathan. Friends like to share with each other. Cut construction paper into In the second picture, what do you think David and Jonathan are talking halfsheets, Foldand staple two halfsheets together to form a about? (David is asking why King Saul dislikes him; Jonathan is encouraging f’ booklet for each child,Before David.) Good friends often talk about their problems. class,color and cut apart one Why do the two friends look unhappy in the third picture? (They’re sad [ set of pictures: make a sample because David has to go away for a while.) It’s not easy when friends move scrapbook. away. Have you ever had to say good-bye to a friend? What happened? In the fourth picture, how is David being a friend to Jonathan even though Jonathan isn’t there? (David shows kindness to Jonathan’s son.) Good friends can be friends for all of their lives. They can be kind to the people in each other’s families. People often put pictures of their friends in a scrapbook so they can remember the things they did together. Let’s make friendship scrapbooks of David and Jonathan. Show the sample scrapbook you have made. When children have finished coloring their pictures, give each child two half sheets of construction paper folded and stapled to make a book. Children can glue the pictures in order on the scrapbook pages and decorate the outside covers. What did Jonathan do to help David? What did David do to help Jonathan’s family?

BibleMemory:BibleVerse Partners Show the Joshua 24:24 in your Bible and say the verse together to help children Materials remember it. Bible Friends like to do things together, so let’s form friendship circles and Bible say our Bible Words together. Group children in circles of three or four. Words We will serve the Lord our Demonstrate with two children: You say the first word, the child on your left says God. We will obey him’ the second word, the next child says the third word, you say the fourth word, and (Joshua 24:24). so on. Let small groups practice; then ask each group to say the verse for every one to hear. How can we serve the Lord by being good friends? (When we are kind to our friends and help them, we are showing love as God wants us to do.) How can we help our friends to serve God too? (We can tell them about God and what He wants them to do.)

UNIT 10, LESDN 43 3.WhatDoesThisMeanto Me?A

DecidingHowto Bea Friend Materials We are going to work together to decide how to be good friends with items children can use to be others. friends (stuffedanimal,ball, Let’s begin by naming lots of opposites.

Repeat so that everyone shares an idea. You have named some good ways to be friends. Repeat some of the chil dren’s ideas. Let’s remember to be friends this week.

. Whatan I Doto PleaseCod’A ASignfora Friend Materials God is pleased when we choose to serve Him by making and keeping none good friendships. He loves to see us being kind, helpful, and encouraging to our friends, just as David and Jonathan were to each other. Here’s the hand sign for the word “friend.” Raise both arms and bring your hands in front of you with fingers curled. Place the index finger of your right hand over the index finger of the other hand which is palm up (the fingers will form an X).Then turn your hands over and do the same thing with the index finger of your left hand. Have the children copy your actions and practice signing the word several times. Do you want to be a good friend? Sign ‘friend.” Let’s ask God to help us be friends. Sign ‘friend” again. You can pray some sentences after me. Each time we say the word “friend” in the prayer, we will sign it. Lead children in the prayer, pausing to sign “friend.” Lord, help me serve You. I will be a kind friend. (Sign.) Thank You for being my best Friend. (Sign.) In Jesus’ name, amen.

That’sSpecial Let’s talk about things that are special. Who has gone on a special trip? What made that trip special? Who has been given a special treat or gift? What made that gift special? Can you tell me the name of someone you think is special? What makes that person special? Allow children to discuss special things and people. I know someone who is more special than anyone else. This special someone has more power than anyone on earth. This special someone loves everyone. This special someone shows He cares for each person and He gives more to us than any person ever could. Do you know whom I am talldng about? Yes, God! When we tell God how much we love Him and how special He is, we say we are worshiping God. God is the only person we should ever worship. What are some special things you know about God? Encourage children to tell some of the things you have talked about today (e.g., God cares for us. God is powerful. Only God can do miracles). Let’s learn a definition of what it means to worship God. I’ll say the first part of the phrase, and then you finish it for me. Have children practice the response several limes before you lead in the open-ended phrase. Teacher: To worship God means... Children: telling God how special He is.

v. WhatCanI Doto PleaseGod’A

APowerfulGod Materials What are some ways God showed His power to Elijah in today’s Bible quarter pieces of buttered story? (God kept Elijah safe from angry King Ahab. God gave water for Elijah to bread or snack crackers drink. God sent ravens to bring bread and meat to Elijah.) God shows His love and power to us too. Let’s tell God how special He is. Each time you name L. something special about God or something special that He does, I will put a piece of bread (or a snack cracker) on this plate. After we have told God how special He is, we will thank God for the snack, and then we’ll enjoy it together. Lead children in naming reasons God is special: God keeps us safe; God loves us; God gives us food; God is powerful. Change each reason into a worship state ment: (e.g., We worship You, God, because You are powerful. You give us all things). After children have named several reasons to worship God, close in prayer, thanking God for the snack He has provided.

Bring out the prebaked flat bread. I made this bread yesterday the same as we are making bread today. I brought it for you to taste. Distribute small pieces of bread for children to try. Have you ever been really hungry? How did you feel? When you are really hungry, what do you like to eat? Listen to children’s responses. The flour and oil bread we made may not have been our favorite food to eat, but if we were very hungry and didn’t have anything else to eat, it might taste very good. Our Bible story today is about a woman who only had a liffle flour and oil left to make some bread to eat. We’ll find out how God helped the woman.

2.WhatDuesthe BibleSay?A r BibleStory:Jars ThatWereNeverEmpty Materials Lay your Bible open to 1 Kings 17 on your lap. Have the box of sticks and your Bible “cupboard” nearby. Do you remember how God’s prophet Elijah had told box containinga handfulof King Ahab that it was going to stop raining for a long time? King Ahab smallsticks/twigs smalljar of flour knew that was very bad news. Food would not grow. The people would not smalljar of oil have enough to eat. King Ahab was angry with Elijah for saying that it bowl would stop raining. God told Elijah to hide. God’s power helped Elijah get wooden spoon the food he needed to eat while he was hiding from evil King Ahab. How did God plan for Elijah to get the food He needed? Allow children to answer. Put the bowl,spoon, and the Yes, God jars of flour and oil in the sent ravens with bread and meat. And Elijah got water to drink ‘cupboard’ used for Step I, from a brook. But God had said it would stop raining. And it did not rain. Activity2. Soon the brook dried up. Now Elijah had no water to drink! —.-.-- a,, Now God told Elijah to go to the town of Zarephath. God said Elijah 2 .. -. ft_ ‘L> could live in that town. God said a woman in the town would take care of Elijah. Elijah obeyed God. He knew God had taken care of him before, and he trusted God to take care of hini now that there was no water. When Elijah reached the town gate, he saw a woman gathering wood for a fire. Ask a child to reach into the box and bring out the sticks. Elijah asked the woman, “Would you bring me some water? I would like to have a drink” As the woman was going to get his water, Elijah said, “Please bring me a piece of bread too.” The woman answered him, “As surely as the Lord your God lives, I tell you the truth. I have no bread. I have only a handful of flour in a jar.” Ask a child to take the jar of flour out of the cupboard. “And I have only a little olive oil in a jug.” Ask another child to take out the jar of oil. “I came here to gather some wood. I will take it home and cook one last meal for my son and me.” Why do you think the woman said this was to be her last meal? Yes, she had no more food left, and she didn’t know where she would get more food. Well, Elijah did not tell the woman that he was sorry. Instead he said, “Don’t worry. Go home and cook your food. But first make a small loaf of bread for me. Then cook something for yourself and your son.” That was surprising! What do you think the widow thought about what Elijah had said? Show the flour and oil again. If she only had a little flour and a little oil, how could she make enough bread for three people to eat? What Elijah said next was even more surprising! Elijah said, “God said your jar of flour wifi not be empty and your oil jug will have oil in it!” Elijah promised the woman that she would always have floir and oil in her jars unifi the Lord sent rain back to the land. ‘ss_, —‘“2” ‘‘-“ “-.-“‘;; UNIT 1 1, LESSN 45

Let’s look at the items. Then we’ll play a game with them. Show the items one at a time. Talk about the ways they remind you of how special God is: paper heart—God loves and is always with me; box of bandages—God cares for me when I am sick; apple—God provides food for me; hand barbell—God is strong and powerful; pocket dictionary—God knows all things; artificial flower or stuffed animal—God created all things. Close your eyes. I will take away all but three items. When you open your eyes, you can look at the items on the tray and shout out the reasons we should worship God. (Example: Leave the barbell, paper heart, and dictionary on the tray. Children will look and shout out: God is strong. God loves us. God knows everything!) Repeat the game several times, leaving a different combina tion of items on the tray each time. What is your favorite reason for worshiping God? Can you think of other special things about God that make you want to worship Him?

DrawYourWorship Materials Our Bible Words from Psalm 9:1 remind us to tell all the miracles God art paper has done. You can worship God by telling about how He has the power to crayonsor markers make all things good for us: good food, good clothes, a beautiful world, good friends and family. Distribute paper and crayons or markers. Draw a picture of one thing you are glad God is powerful enough to give to you. As you draw, we will sing a song about God’s power. Sing these two verses to the tune of ‘God Is So Good. Verse 1: God is so good, God is so good, God is so good, He’s so powerful. Verse 2: I worship God, I worship God, I worship God, He’s so powerful. When children have finished drawing, ask each child to tell what he has drawn. Close your class time in prayer: Thank You, God, all the good things You have done for us and given to us. We worship You because You have the power to do all these things. We worship You because You are strong and wise. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Let’s pretend that we juicejugs willwork well for this are going to Mount Carmel with Elijah. We’ll find out what happened there. activity.Rinseout the jugs and Stand and walk in place with big steps, as though walking up a mountain. cut off the pouring spouts so Whew! We reached the top. Look! Pretend to point to someone. There is the jugs willhave wide openings Elijah. Elijah is saying “If at the top. to everyone, the Lord is the true God, follow Him. But if Baa! is the true God, follow him!” Elijah is letting the 450 prophets of Baa! go first. Let’s sit down and watch what they are doing. Be seated and continue telling the story from your Bible. The Bible tells us that the 450 prophets of Baa! built an altar so that their false god could set fire to the wood and the sacrifice. They prayed all day, but nothing happened at their altar. Baa! did not answer the 450 false prophets. There was no fire. The wood and the sacrifice did not burn. Then Elijah took 12 stones and used them to build an altar in honor of the Lord. Let’s help Elijah. Let the children help you build an altar with the paper bag stones. Put wood sticks on top of the “stones.” After Elijah had the altar built, he laid a sacrifice on it. A sacrifice is a piece of meat that represented giving a special gift to God. But Elijah was not ready to ask God to burn the sacrifice. No, not yet. After Elijah built the altar, he asked some men to dig a ditch around it. Do I have some volun teers to dig around our altar? Choose two or three children who will pretend to dig around the altar. Next, Elijah asked people to pour water over the sacrifice, the wood, and the stones of the altar. Elijah said, “Fifi four jars with water and put water on the meat and on the wood.” Let’s pour four jugs of water on our altar. Have four children come up and pretend to do so. Then Elijah said, “Do it again.” Pretend to pour four more jugs full of water on the altar. You can have four different children come up to do this. Finally, Elijah said, “Do it a third time.” Pretend to pour four more jugs full of water. There was so much water that the water ran off of the altar and filled the ditch around the altar. Then Elijah prayed, “Lord, I ask You now to prove to the people that You are the true God.” Elijah didn’t have a match or any lighter fluid. Where did he think the fire would come from? Do you think any fire could burn the wood with all that water poured on it? Let children respond. Usually, no fire could burn the wet wood, but God was about to do another miracle. Suddenly, fire from the Lord came down. It burned the sacrifice, the wood, the stones and the ground around the altar. It even dried up all the water in the ditch! When the people saw this, they cried, “The Lord is God! The Lord is God!” Let’s shout that praise together too: “The Lord is God! T1is Lord is God!” Children can shout the praise with you several times.

Waysto Worship Materials We have learned that worship is telling God how special He is. Now let’s copies of the worship cards look at some different ways we can tell God how special He is. Distribute from 287 p. the “Ways to Worship” cards among the children. Copy (enlarge),color and cut Who has a picture that shows a way we can worship God just with our apart the worship cards from mouths? Children should show the singing and shouting pictures. Sometimes page 287. Makemultiplecopies, -‘ people shout their excitement about God. What do you sing to God? as needed; each childshould Who has a picture that shows how we can worship God just with our have at least one card. hands? Show the clapping hands and signing pictures. Clapping is a good way Teaching Tip 4J; to show our excitement, isn’t it? Would you also like to sign a praise to if you are usingthe unit project God? Sign “Praise God,” as shown on the picture card. (see page 266),you mightwant ‘ Who has a picture that shows a way to worship God using both our to do this activityin your mouths and our hands? Show playing a musical instrument. What kind of WO.W worship area The instruments can you play for God? Allow children to name some. worship cards may be posted k in your center Sometimes people lift their hands to worship God. When we lift our hands, we are showing that we worship in the one true God in Heaven. Show the picture and have children raise their hands as they say, “The Lord is God.” Can we worship God with our feet? Children who have the dancing card should show the picture. Yes, dancing is another way we show we love God. There is one more picture that shows a way to worship God. Who has that picture? Show the child praying. Talking to God is always a good way to worship Him. Let’s do that right now. Lead in a prayer. Dear God, Thank You for Your love and care. You are a great and powerful God. In Jesus’ name, amen.

v 4•WhatCanI Doto PleaseGod?A

CanWorshipGodAlone Materials We have looked at eight ways to worship God. Now I would like each of a copy of the 450 Facesfrom you to choose one of those ways to worship the true God, just as Elijah 290 p. did. Look carefully at the cards. Which is your favorite way to worship? Ask worship cards (from 287) p. each child to choose one of ways used in Step 3 the eight to worship. All the children who want to clap should stand together; those who want to lift their hands can be grouped Teaching Tip together; and so on. Once children have selected groups to be in, allow each Ifyou have adult helpers,each group to worship God in its special way. Provide rhythm instruments for the “play helper cantake a worship instrument” group and have music ready to play for groups who want to dance or group to a place by itselfand sing. (Note: It’s OK if all ways lead the group in itstime of not the to worship are chosen.) worship. Ifyou are the only After groups have worshiped God, show the picture of the 450 faces again. Do teacher groups can show their you remember how many faces are on this paper? Yes, 450! Elijah wor waysto worship one at a time. shiped God, even though he was all alone on God’s side and there were 450 prophets on Baal’s side. When you go home today, there will not be a whole classroom full of children to worship with you, but you can still worship God. In what way will you worship God each day this week? If possible, give each child a worship card that shows the way the child says he plans to worship God. What will you say to tell God how special He is?

for we Story Review:Naaman,Naaman Let’s do a rhyme with some actions to remember our Bible story. Lead in the following rhyme. All the children can follow your actions the first time. Then select children to play the various parts and let them act out the answers to their parts of the rhyme. Naaman, Naaman, what’s the matter with you? “My skin’s covered with sores, and I feel so blue.” Frown; touch ‘sores” on arms. Little girl, little girl, what did you say? “1 told Naainan’s wife about a prophet today.” Wag finger as though talking. Naaman, Naaman, what did you do? “I went to the king and he sent me to you.” Point, as though saying go. Elisha, Elisha, can you make his skin new? “I’ll talk to my God; He’ll know just what to do.” Fold hands in prayer. Messenger, Messenger, what did you say? “Go dip in the river to take sores away.” Bend at knees and dip down and up. Naaman, Naaman, what will you do? “I’ll not wash in the water. He’s not got a clue.” Fold arms across chest; shake head no. Servant, Servant, what can you say? “It’s slinpie to wash. Please do it today!” Clasp hands together as though begging. Naaman, Naaman, what will you do? “I’ll dip seven times. My choices are few.” Shrug shoulders. Naaman, Naainan, look at your skin! “It’s clean and it’s new. The Lord—we’ll praise Him!” Look upward and raise hands. How do you think Naaman felt about his skin disease? (hopeless) How did Elisha know what Naaman should do? (Elisha was a prophet of God; he spoke God’s messages.) What did Naaman learn about Elisha’s God? (There is no god in all the earth except the one true God.)

BibleMemory:PraisingwithAllOurHearts r Post the picture clues on a wall or bulletin board, in order but without the writ Materials ten phrases on them. Gather children in a semi-circle around the board. Open Bible your Bible and show Psalm 9:1. Let’s play a game to see if we’ve learned our BibleWords picture clues Bible Words and to find out if we’re giving God all our hearts.

Remind them of some of the (pattern on page 290). ways to worship talked about during the unit: clap, raise hands, dance, sing, prayer, sign, and so on. Bible Words Do any of you know about a miracle God has done? If so, grab a heart “Iwillpraise you,Lord,with allmy heart I wilttell allthe and tell me.

Prayer Prescription Materials If you are sick and go to the doctor’s office, the doctor may write a pre copy of the “Prayer Prescrip scription for you to take to the drugstore so you can get some medicine. tion” on p. 315 for each child What does the medicine do for you? Allow children to answer. Yes, it helps pencils markers you to feel better. It might fight an infection or help some pain go away. bag that looks likea medical When Hezekiah was sick, the prophet Isaiah told some helpers to put bag medicine on Hezekiah’s sore places. What else did Hezekiah do to get well? (He prayed to God.) Teaching Tip Praying to God is the most important thing we can do when we are sick Ifa child does not know some- or we know else one who is sick,suggest naming when someone who is sick. A prescription of medicine someone who is older and can take away an infection or ease some pain, but only God can heal peo does not feel well at times or ple from their sicknesses. Let’s name some people we know who are sick someone who may be lonely or who might not feel good much of the time. Then we’ll write some or sad. “Prayer Prescriptions,” or papers that will help us remember to pray for those people. Allow children to name people they know who are sick. Children might name a parent, grandparent, friend, teacher, or neighbor. Try to direct them away from naming pets or people who have died. Give each child a copy of the Prayer Prescription from page 315. Write your name on your “Prayer Prescription.” Then draw a picture of the person you want to pray for, or I will help you write that person’s name on the “Prayer Prescription.” When you finish, put your prescription in my medical bag. Give children time to draw (and write) and put their prescriptions in the bag. Help children decide whom to pray for and help them write names on the Prayer Prescription papers. How do you think God can help this person? When can you pray for the person? What will you tell this person about God’s power to answer prayer and heal sicknesses? Are there ways you can help the person who is sick?

.What CanI Doto PleaseGod A

Prayer for the Sick Materials Gather children in a circle. God was pleased when Hezekiah prayed to ‘medical bag with Prayer Him. God healed Hezekiah and let him live for 15 more years! God is Prescription’ papers made in pleased when we pray to Him too. We can pray to God when we are sick, Step 3 and we can pray to God for people we know who are sick or not feeling well. Let’s pray for the people we named on our “Prayer Prescription” papers. Bring out your “medical bag.” Take out one prescription. Read the name or describe the person drawn. Pray aloud for God to help and heal that person. Ask a volunteer to come up and pick out another ‘Prayer Prescription.” If there are children in your class who are comfortable praying aloud, ask one of them to pray for the person named on the selected paper. Or, have children repeat a sen tence prayer that you pray for the person. Continue by leffing other children come up one at a time to select papers from the bag. Pray for each person named on a paper. When all the papers have been taken from the bag, give children their own “Prayer Prescriptions.” Take your “Prayer Prescription” home to help you remember to pray for the person named on your paper. Be sure to thank God for His power to heal and for listening to your prayers. co UNIT 12, LESSIN 50
