Monday

Jesus is holy and that changes everything!
Matthew 4:18-20 | Luke 5:1-11

Today we learned Jesus is holy and why that's so amazing!

Spend some time tonight talking about what it means to be holy. Work together to name ways we see that Jesus is holy. Are we to be holy, too? What does that look like?

Tuesday

Jesus is trustworthy, even when we doubt.
Matthew 14:22-33

In today’s lesson, we learned about the time Peter walked on water toward Jesus. But something happened!

Take time tonight to ask what happened to Peter when he took his eyes off Jesus. Talk about what can happen to us if we start to doubt as Peter did.


Wednesday

Jesus is forgiving, even when we sin.
Luke 22:31-34, 54-62; John 18:15-18; 21:1-19

In today’s lesson, we learned how even though Peter loved Jesus, in a difficult situation, he lied about even knowing him.

Spend some time tonight discussing how Jesus responded to Peter. Remind them that we sin, too. When we mess up, we need to pray and ask God to forgive us. And just as Jesus restored Peter, our sins will be forgiven, too!

Thursday

Jesus is worth following even when it gets tough.
Acts 3:1-4:24

In today’s lesson, we learned how brave Peter was to speak boldly about Jesus even though he was put in prison for doing so!

Take time tonight to talk about how we should tell others about Jesus, too. What are some ways that following Jesus like that could make it tough for us? Remind them that Jesus is worth following!

Friday

Jesus is for everyone, including me!
Acts 10

In today’s lesson we learned that Jesus is for everyone. But not everyone knows about Jesus and how much He loves them.

Spend a few minutes tonight and discuss why it is so important to tell other people about Jesus.

Because as our VBS Motto says...
Following Jesus Changes Everything!
