We use Gospel Project for Kids curriculum for the Children's Ministry at GLC.  The Gospel Project for Kids is a Christ-centered ongoing weekly Bible study resource that looks at the big picture of God's story; the story of redemption through Jesus Christ. Each week, kids of all ages will follow a chronological timeline of Bible events, all the while learning how each story points to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  

And now for this weeks lesson... 

This upcoming Sunday your child will learn about: God Gave Solomon Wisdom
Story Point:  Solomon was a wise king who wanted to do God’s plan. Solomon wasn’t perfect, but God had a plan to give His people a greater and wiser king—His Son, Jesus. Jesus completely trusted God. Jesus surrendered His own life to die on the cross for our sin.
Family Bible Reading: The LORD is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abounding in faithful love and truth. Exodus 34:6
Big Picture Question: What is mercy?
Big Picture Answer:  Mercy is when God does not give us the punishment that we deserve.
