THE BIG QUESTION
GROUP DISCUSSION
1. Is it easier to do something when you have an example to follow?
Yes! It’s much easier to do something when we can follow someone else and learn from their example.
2. How can we see Jesus example?
The Gospels tell us about Jesus and how He lived and how He loved others.
We can learn from Jesus example as we read the Bible, learn from our family and friends and what we learn here at church.
3. Who helps us to live like Jesus did?
As Christians we want to grow and become more like Jesus; more like Jesus in how we treat others, how we speak, how we act and how we behave. We don’t need to strive out of our own strength to try and live like Jesus. The Holy Spirit empowers us and transforms us so we can grow, in His strength, to follow Jesus’ example.
ACTIVITY SHEETSChildren complete the activity sheets in this time.
THE BIG ACTIVITYSUPPLIES NEEDED:
‘Foot Steps Page’ printed for each child from the print material files, coloured markers or pencils.
DIRECTIONS:
Give each child a ‘Foot Steps’ page printed from the print material files. Ask the children to think of a time in Jesus’ life when He provided us with a good example e.g: When He was kind, showed God’s love or helped someone. And draw pictures of these in each foot outline on the page.
EXPLANATION:
Throughout The Gospels, Jesus gives us an example to follow. Ephesians 5:1-2 (NIV) “Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.”

BIG IDEA: WALK THIS WAYBIG POINT: JESUS GIVES US AN EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW
BIG WORD VOICES
“So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.” John 1:14 (NLT)Say the Big Word in different voices and have the children follow your example repeating each section after you. Try a high-pitch squeaky mouse voice, a robot voice, a giggly voice and a deep booming voice.
GAME DRAWING DIRECTIONS CHALLENGE
SUPPLIES NEEDED: Markers or pencils, blank paper, blindfold.
Have the children split into pairs or groups of three. Using a blindfold (this can be a scarf, face-mask or something similar), blindfold one of the children in the group. Set them up with a marker/pen and the blank sheet of paper. Following the verbal directions of the others in the group, the blindfolded child must draw a simple picture containing the following items: small house, sun, flower, car, person. (Bonus items can be added for extra fun.) Have the children repeat the game for each of them in the group. Compare the pictures at the end!
Note: The blindfolded child drawing, may need help keeping the marker on the page- so have the other children help by directing where the marker needs to be.
PRAYERDear God,
Thank you that you give us the Bible so we can read and learn all about Jesus. Thank you that Jesus shows us how to live and how to share Your love. We pray that Your Holy Spirit would help us to grow to be like Jesus.
In Jesus’ name, Amen

Walk this wayJesus gives me an example to follow
Think of some stories in The Gospels where Jesus gives us a good example to follow. e.g. When He was kind, showed God’s love, prayed for someone or helped people. Draw these in the foot step shapes.
