Driving Home the Point: Week of October 21st - 27th, 2007

This week in KidZone Ministries, we are learning to choose to follow God and to ask God for help when we have choices to make.

Bible Story: The Kingdom Divides (1 Kings 11:28-12:24)

Key Verse: 2 Chronicles 7:14 "Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land."

@Home with your child:
A. If you think it is appropriate for your family, it might be fun to watch The Lion King (G). Then talk about the results of Scar's rebellion against the good King Mufasa. Discuss how rebellion against God can cause difficult things in our lives.
B. Play a game with your child, then talk about how playing the game requires following certain rules. Discuss how God's rules help us live good lives. Point out that God knows and wants what's best for us.

WISDOM THAT COMES FROM A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS SUPPORTS GOD'S PURPOSE. TRUE WISDOM WILL ALWAYS BRING CHRIST'S PEOPLE TO HIM AND TO BLESSINGS.
