Matthew 6:20-21
It is Wednesday once again and I am scrambling to finish up craft preparations for tonight's kid's class. We are starting a new book that teaches how we got the Bible. The first lesson is about King Josiah and how a treasure was found when his men cleaned out the Lord's temple. After the reign of two wicked kings, they had found the scrolls of the Holy Scriptures, long forgotten and ignored, stored away in a back room. To Josiah, who longed to follow God, this was a real treasure. So tonight we are making treasure boxes for the kids to keep their Bibles in. Shoe boxes were free at the local K Mart. All I had to purchase aside from glue, is brass fasteners to make the boxes fancy. I already had the foam letters tucked away in my craft collection.
You have always been so creative, what a great idea!
ReplyDeleteYour a treasure in and of your self!
ReplyDeleteThat is a really need object lesson. Because they are going to actually do an action that is related to the lesson - if they keep their Bible in it. It really will remind them about the whole point of the lesson.
ReplyDeleteVery cool!
ReplyDeleteI've taught Sunday School since I was a teenager, and this was one of my all time favorite stories to tell. I love the way you have illustrated it with the treasure box. The children are so fortunate to have you for a teacher.
