This Sunday morning I was given the opportunity to teach Jr. Church. I was excited to fill in for the week because before moving away to school I used to teach a couple of months a year. This morning I taught the lesson for letter G from the ABC's of God study. G is for Glorious and just like we can't look at the sun because it would hurt our eyes we are unable to look upon the glory of God. However we are able to see God's glory through creation just like we can enjoy the sunset.
Psalm 19:1 "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands."
I find it amazing what they grab onto from the lesson. Even though we were not talking about heaven for more than a few moments, my explanation of the heavens is the one part of the lesson that stuck with the kids the most.
It also amazes me the types of questions that kids can come up with. This for me is one of the best parts about teaching. My favorite one from today was, "Miss Amanda, why do angels wear dresses and not pants?"
Is your ABC's of God produced by Children Desiring God Ministries? I love there stuff.
ReplyDeleteYes Sir, It is!
ReplyDeleteMy goal is to use it here in Chile (translated of course) for backyard Bible meetings.
