This week we discussed John 15:18-21. Here is a small excerpt of the lesson: "Jesus knew that it was not always easy for His friends, and it was going to get even more difficult. He knew that they would be persecuted for following Him, but encouraged them to live as He taught them, and to spread the word of God's awesome love wherever they went. Jesus promised to send the Holy Spirit to them. He knew that if He told them these things before they actually happened, that it would help them to believe later, and to carry on, as they saw that everything that He had predicted come true." The kids saw a part of the movie "Gospel of John". They got to see all of the scriptures that we have been learning about come to life in the video.
Some discussion questions for this week are.... If you were able to tell Jesus something the night before he died, what would it be? How do you think the disciples felt hearing Jesus tell them He would not be with them on Earth much longer? Our kids were able to write letter to Jesus this week during small group time. Encourage your kids to share with you what they wrote in their letters. They will be going home with the kids soon.
