Bible Point: Jesus changes our lives.
Key Verse: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” – 2 Corinthians 5:17
Saul’s life changed when he met Jesus on the road to Damascus. When we encounter Jesus, our lives are changed, too (Acts 9:1-20). Strengthen your family’s faith learning and growth at home with this easy idea:
1. Discuss a significant life change you experienced. It doesn’t necessarily have to be one that involved God. Maybe it was a move across the country, or maybe it was the loss of a job. Talk about how it felt to experience that change. How was your experience similar to or different from Saul’s? What was the outcome?
2. Ask your kids to take a few minutes to think about changes they’ve experienced as a result of being friends with Jesus.
3. Encourage your kids to think about how their experience has been similar to or different from Saul’s.
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for meeting us right where we’re at. We want You to change us and shape us into the people you want us to be. In Jesus’ name, amen.
