Where we’re headed next time
Big Idea: Jesus is Alive (part 1)
John 19—20. God had a plan to send a Savior. When the time was right, God sent His only Son, Jesus, who came to earth and died on a cross for our sins. After three days, He rose from the grave. Jesus is alive!
Dig into God’s Word
Read John 20v1. Remind your child that the “stone” was really a large boulder!
Connect as a Family
Your child can understand simple comparisons. Play “full or empty” using a box with a lid and some familiar household objects to help your child begin to understand the empty tomb.
Did Jesus stay dead?
No, He came back to life!
Blessing
Blessings are often used in the Bible. A blessing can be a prayer of commission, a portion of Scripture, or words to encourage and guide.
Open a Bible and read Revelation 1v8: “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
