Main Point: I Will Share Joy!

Bible Story: Christmas through the eyes of the angels & the Shepherds. (Luke 2:8 - 20)

Bible Verse: “Furthermore, we have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.” 1 John 4:14 (NLT)

Family Activity:


Read The Bible Story Together: Shepherds (Luke 2:8-20)

Ask your children to tell you of a time they were bursting with good news they wanted to tell others.

 

Joyful, Joyful!

We hear a lot about having joy during the Christmas season. Joy is something we should have all year long though, and we should share it with others. When the shepherds heard the news about Jesus they were joyful. They couldn’t keep their joy to themselves! We should be like the shepherds and share our joy with others, too. This week, play a game of telephone as a family. Sit in a line. The first person should whisper to the next person something he or she is joyful about and that person should pass it down the line. The last person in line should shout out the joyful news. Encourage your children to share their joy, and the good news of Jesus, with others.
 
See you next Sunday!
