Devotions

Hey, Parents!

I thought this week you might be interested in doing the devotions that our coaches do in preparation for our lessons.  These devotions go along with the curriculum, and will prepare you to talk with your kids about the lesson this coming Sunday (May 18th), but are meant to be done this week (May 12-16).

Monday - - Read Matthew 28:16-20

When reading this week’s passage, what does Christ say our job is as his disciples? What is his promise to us?

Tuesday - - Personal Reflection Questions

1)  Why did Jesus go to heaven?

2) Is it harder for you to hear Christ’s call to service or to believe his promise of always being with you?

3) How can you help the kids in your small group understand that Jesus is still with us, even though He went to heaven?

Wednesday - - Read Acts 1:1-11

When reading this passage, picture it from a child’s perspective.  How does that change how you read this story?

Thursday - - Discuss this week’s readings with your small group or accountability partner

Even if you can’t make it to this week’s small group, we encourage you to talk through what God is placing on your heart with someone this week.

Friday - - Memorize Proverbs 18:24

“One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” ~ Proverbs 18:24
