Kids Worship
Obedience doesn’t come easy! During the month of July
our kids will look at the struggles people in the Bible had with
obedience and examine their own struggles to always do what is
right! From the battle between the Israelites and the Philistines,
to the opposition Jesus faced, to the conflicts kids face today, we
will search the Bible for how we can live godly lives obeying God
every step of the way! Kids will have the opportunity to see how the
Ten Commandments are a relevant guide for their lives each and every
day!
Our key verse for this month is Deuteronomy 5:32, “Obey All God’s
commands.” Moms and Dads, if you would like to talk with your kids
about our study the topics are listed below.
• The Philistines Capture the Ark. 1 Samuel 5:1–5. We know God is
the only god.
• Jesus Heals on the Sabbath. Mark 3:1–5. We set aside a day for
God.
• The Parable of Two Sons. Matthew 21:28–32. We honor God by obeying
our parents.
• People Lie About Jesus. Mark 14:53–65. We tell the truth no matter
what.
• Nathan Give’s David a Message From God. 2 Samuel 12:1–6. We’re
content with what God gives us.
