Talk About the Bible Story

Noah's Ark
Genesis 6:8-9:17

God helps Noah build a big boat, called an ark, for Noah's family and two of every animal.

"I know that God helps me."

Psalm 54:4, NIrV

Engagement Questions

• Who helps you do big things?
• What is something big that you can do?

Prayer

"Dear God, thank You for all of the big things you give us to do. Thank You for helping us do big things. We love You, God. In Jesus' name. Amen."

ENGAGE IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS TOGETHER

Morning Time

When you go into your child's room, cuddle them and say: "Good morning, [child's name]! I wonder what big things God has for us to do today!"

Drive Time

While on the go, look for people building things. What are they building? Talk about how God told Noah to build a boat even though Noah had never built a boat before. God helped Noah, and Noah was able to do a very big thing.

Cuddle Time

Cuddle with your child and pray: "Dear God, there is no one more powerful or bigger than You. No one loves us as big as You do. If we ever need help, You are the one who can help us."

Bath Time

Add colorful craft pom-poms to bath time. Work with your child to make a rainbow with the pom-poms on the side of the tub. Talk about how God said every time He saw a rainbow in the sky, He would remember His promise to never cover the world with water again.

Bible Story

God So Loved the World
John 3:16-17

God took care of our greatest need.

None of you should look out just for your own good. Each of you should also look out for the good of others.

Philippians 2:4, NIrV

Engagement Questions

• What is one thing you wish you had?
• Who do you talk to when you need something?
• What does it mean that God took care of our greatest need?

Prayer

"God, we have SO much to be thankful for! Thank You for loving us more than we could ever fully understand. Thank You for making us in Your image and taking the first step to restore our relationship with You by sending Jesus. You took care of our greatest need, and we are SO grateful! Help us to believe and trust in Jesus and share Your love with others. We love You, and we pray these things in Jesus' name. Amen."

ENGAGE IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS TOGETHER

Morning Time

As your kid starts their day, tell them: "You've worked so hard on _______ lately. Great job!"

Drive Time

While on the go, ask your kid: "Who have you helped lately? Who has helped you?"

Meal Time

At a meal this week, have everyone at the table answer this question: "God saw what we needed and made a plan to send Jesus to take care of it. Not only that, but God made sure the plan happened. How does it make you feel when someone sees something you need and does something to help?"

Bed Time

Pray for each other: "God, thank You for seeing our biggest need and taking care of it by sending Jesus to die for our sins and rise again. Help us remember that nothing is too big for You."
