2) The WORD Became Flesh
During class time two weeks ago, I commented
on Jesus being God. It was stated as an aside comment, nothing out of the
ordinary. But one of the kids, a 4th grader, who is a regular attendee, and
whose parents are involved in church, said in astonishment, "Jesus is
God?" I was taken aback! Why, yes of course, I said. And then quickly
explained the Trinity (as if quickly explaining the Trinity is even
possible). I was surprised that something as basic to our faith was a new thing to him! How was that missed in all the
lessons I've taught, or that the other teachers had taught? Not to mention
he goes to Christian school and is an intelligent child. It was baffling!
Last week I spent more time explaining the Trinity, and how "God became
flesh and lived among us."
 So
this got me thinking that maybe a return to some basic truths might be in
order for me, and for you!
Several years ago I wrote a six-part lesson on "The Word becoming
flesh" based on John 1:1-14. And this
series of lessons is actually a bonus when purchasing my book, Bible
Games Explosion. I want to give you the opportunity to
sample it, and would love to receive your
feedback!

3) Eleven Minute Easter Musical The kids I work with are ages 5 to 10. It is very difficult to act out
dramas with dialog since some can't even read. I used three songs and attempted to coordinate the scenes to the peaks and valleys of the music. I edited out one verse of "How Great Thou Art" to shorten the total time of the drama. The version I used is a contemporary one. I am going to use traditional costumes for all the cast.
Depending on which version of the song you use, you may have to alter the times. You will notice that some of the cast has two and even three different parts. This can be modified depending on how many actors you have.
Get the Eleven
Minute Easter Musical.

4) The King's Crown Skit
A quick skit for Lent based on the Parable of the Tenant. No memorization
is required, with discussion questions and a coordinating craft.
Get the Parable
of the Tenant Bible skit.
