The Light in the Flatworld

Bible Verse
Psalm 119:105 Your word is like a lamp that shows me the way. It is like a light that guides me.

Message

1. The Bible is the most important book. It is God's message to us.
2. We should read it regularly.

Lesson Introduction

Treasure Hunt

I have created flash cards of the letters B-I-B-L-E.

Will be posting them on the wall far apart. Then will place three boxes filled with various items for the kids to check. Some items will have the stickers "Get me!" and the label of what item they are. Once they find all five items, we will form the world BIBLE.

I have chosen these five things, with the following explanations:

B - ball (the Bible starts with the letter B. In Filipino, it is Bibliya)
I - insect (insects are small and of different kind. The Bible said God made all of them.)
B - ear (My daughter loves teddy bears. She sleeps embracing her teddy bear. May the Bible be as precious to you to)
L - etter (The Bible is God's letter to us. We should read it to know his message for us)
E - egg (Like an egg that is white, the Bible tells us the things that can make us white as snow because God will clean us from our hearts)

Lesson Time
Will be showing different types of Bibles - mine, my kids' and the one available in the Sunday School. Will explain to them that the Bible are stories and lessons from God to His children - us.

We read it everyday because we want to learn what to do. Will explain that personally, I get inspiration (songs that we know come from the Bible), enlightenment (the things we should do) as well as stories like those about Jonah, Noah, Adam and Jesus.

Will ask them these questions:

1. Who is their favorite Bible character?
2. Do they have Bibles at home?
3. Do they read it? 

Then lastly, will tell them how to take care of their Bibles.

• Hold it properly.
• Don't tear the pages.
• Put a cover.
• Don't let it get wet.
