Children's Ministry Lesson for December 12

Family Advent Guide from LifeWay Kids - we are offering an Advent Guide from Lifeway Kids this Christmas.  Each weekly devotion is designed to lead your family to open their Bibles, discuss the Bible passage, pray together, and create special memories that strengthen your hope, joy, love, and peace with God and with others.  Use these devotions, activities, and worship songs to help your family worship Jesus this Christmas.  We have copies of the Advent Guide on our Children's Ministry table located in the back of the sanctuary.  

For this Sunday, we will have classes for:

• Gospel Tots - ages 1-3
• Gospel Tykes/Kids - ages 4-8 Please bring water for your child labeled with their name.
• Gospel Students - ages 9-11 or 3rd-5th grade

We use Gospel Project for Kids curriculum for the Children's Ministry at GLC.  The Gospel Project for Kids is a Christ-centered ongoing weekly Bible study resource that looks at the big picture of God's story; the story of redemption through Jesus Christ. Each week, kids of all ages will follow a chronological timeline of Bible events, all the while learning how each story points to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  

And now for this weeks lesson... 

This upcoming Sunday your child will learn about: God Delivered His People
Story Point:  By His grace, God spared the Israelites from judgment by requiring the blood of a lamb. Jesus is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. His death was the ultimate sacrifice, and those who trust in Jesus are under His saving blood and will be passed over in the final judgment.
Family Bible Reading:  Numbers 23:19
Big Picture Question: Does God keep His promises?
Big Picture Answer:  Yes, God always keeps His promises because He is faithful.
