Gather up some family and let's do Club 45 at home!
Circle Time
Alright everyone, time to begin! Answer the following questions with your family:
- Your name
- Your number from 1-4 that tells us how you are...1 is not so good, 4 is great.
-
What is one valuable thing that you have given away for free? Could be a way that you serve another person, time that you spend with someone, something very expensive that you own. Whatever it is must be valuable and it must be something you freely gave.
Worship
Stand In Your Love
When darkness tries to roll over my bones
When sorrow comes to steal the joy I own
When brokenness and pain is all I know
I won't be shaken, no, I won't be shaken
My fear doesn't stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
My fear doesn't stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
My fear doesn't stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
Oh, shame no longer has a place to hide
And I am not a captive to the lies
Oh, I'm not afraid to leave my past behind
I won't be shaken, no, I won't be shaken
There's power that can break off every chain
There's power that can empty out a grave
There's resurrection power that can save
There's power in Your name, power in Your name
Find it in the Bible
The last few weeks we’ve witnessed God’s power, both in praying for other people as well as reading stories about Jesus showing the power of God’s love for us. Last week Jesus explained how God’s rescue plan would work and then was betrayed by his friend Judas. This week we will see the high point of God’s rescue plan: Jesus’ crucifixion. Jesus’ death shows us what love is, how much God loves us, and what He is willing to give us because He loves us.
In a physical Bible, or in a Bible app like YouVersion, look up John 3:16. Read it together. Think and talk about this:
- Who was talking in this verse?
- How do you think God felt about sending his only Son out of Heaven to come to Earth to die?
Let's listen to the story together! Aaron O'Leary is our reader-leader today!
Let's think about that a little bit!
- How does God show His love for us?
- What does Jesus’ death tell us about sin and how it affects our relationship with God?
- As the story described Jesus’ death, what words came to mind? Remember, Jesus’ death on the cross shows us how much God loves us, so as we answer this question, we’re describing God’s love .
Quiet time - just you and Jesus
Find a spot where you and Jesus can chat.
We’re going to take just a few minutes and sit quietly with Jesus. Our lives are full of so much noise and activity that sometimes it’s nice to just stop and listen for Jesus. Get comfortable, close your eyes and picture yourself with Jesus. Maybe picture you and Jesus by a lake, or sitting together on a rock, or curb, or in a flower patch. If you don’t have a picture, ask Jesus for one and he will show you! When we picture ourselves with Jesus in some way it helps our mind to focus on him instead of the other places our mind goes to like I’m hungry, I want to go home, I can’t wait to play with my friends later, or I love pizza and unicorns!
Pray for each other
Don't stand alone!
