Listening to God through the
Bible Theme: The program starts with
telling the children that God
inspired men to write the words that we find in the Bible.It then goes on to teach
that we need to be
very careful how we handle the Bible for it is God’s Holy Word. From
there, using the following Bible texts John 1:3;
Ps 91:11; Ps 55:17; Eph 6:1; Matt 28:20; John 14:2,3; the children
learn that
the Bible has a message that is still very relevant to us today.It begins with creation
and ends with heaven.Throughout
the program is the assurance that
Jesus loves us and is taking care of us today.
Room Set Up:If
possible have two felt boards one with a large felt Bible on it.On this one you will add markers and build it
up as you progress through the program.On the second board the children will place their felts and when talking
about the second coming, place a second coming scene on both boards. This second board could have a grass background on it.
For the room itself, you could have a corner set up either
as a room with a small table and chair and a Bible sitting on the table with a
doll dressed and ready to read, or do a SabbathSchool room with the Bible
prominently displayed.In another corner
I would set up a nature scene with artificial pot plants, flowers, stuffed
animals, dolls to represent people and a large cut out of Jesus.I have a 40 inch felt Jesus which I have
attached to a thin board and stand this in a slot on a base board.You could also have a heaven scene backdrop
if available or pictures of heaven and angels on the walls.
Place the markers in your Bible before SabbathSchool and pull the one you want
the child to open the Bible too so that it the obvious one to the child.
