Kids Bible lessons and ministry resources that teach from the New Testament book of Hebrews.
A calling into ministry is not to be taken lightly, and is one of the most significant things that can be responded to. God gives all of us special tasks to carry out His work. He appoints church leaders to guide and guard His people and teach them to understand His word. In the Bible, priests are described as being specially selected to serve God’s people. That is no less true today! Yet our pastors have a
Pastors do so much for us, and we hardly know the challenges and stresses they face daily. Those in ministry guide us in understanding God’s Word and in a sense speak for Him in they spiritually lead their congregations. It is important to support our pastors with prayer, encouragement, and words of appreciation. If you are looking for a creative way to express gratitude to pastors, try a variation on one of these simple but heart felt
Who’s in charge? Wherever they go, kids recognize those in leadership roles. In the church, that usually means looking to the pastor for guidance. Serving in ministry is an immense and challenging calling. Pastors work very hard, and too often we don’t provide them with quite the appreciation and gratitude that they deserve. Scripture reminds us of the importance of church leaders as God’s chosen instruments to guide us and teach us in faith matters. This message
This message uses a familiar idea of trading items to illustrate the Gospel principles of salvation. Children will consider what it means to give one thing up to get another, and how that concept relates to the life and death of Christ. When we accept His free gift of life, Jesus takes on our sin and “bad stuff” and in return makes us children of God. He has paid the ultimate price to give us a new
We often teach children how Jesus came to Earth to live and die for us. However, we don’t always elaborate the essential reasons behind why He did so. The sacrifices Christ made for us included relinquishing a Heavenly throne in order to embrace humanity and take the punishment for our wrongdoing. These crafts aim to recount those essential truths. A “Journey of Jesus Wheel” traces His life, death, and resurrection. A “Cost of the Cross Collage” uses
“Let’s swap!” Trading one item for another is something children are familiar with, but we usually aim for an even swap. When we think about how Jesus came to Earth and died in our place, it doesn’t sound fair at all. God sent His son to give us new life, and through Him our sins are traded for salvation. In Christ, we see the fullness of God’s love for us, and celebrate what He did on our

Kids sometimes learn best by example. As we talk about definitions of “faith”, it can sometimes still seem to be a confusing term. We want to make sure our faith is in the right thing—in the trustworthiness of God alone. But how does that play out in practical daily life? There are a lot of conflicting distractions and directions that tug at their attention, especially in times of transition, like back to school time. One of the
