This Week In NewLife Kids


Altitude – Elementary
Main Point:  As A Follower Of Christ, I Will Be Humble!

Bible Story:       John The Baptist shows humility.  (Mark 1:7, John 3:22-31)

**Bible Verse:  “God blesses those who are humble, for they will inherit the whole earth.”  Matthew 5:5 (NLT)

Family activity

Play limbo together as a family. As you play, talk about how you have to lower your body under the bar to be good at limbo and you have to lower your attitude about yourself to be humble and help others. Also talk about how you have to bend backward to go under the limbo bar. Talk about the phrase “bend over backward” to help someone. It means that we will do anything we can to help.

When we are humble and serving others as God wants us to, we will bend over backward to help them. Just like getting under the limbo bar was not always easy, serving others can be difficult as well. But if we remain humble, we will be able to put their needs above ours and serve them
