Community Garden: Growing from the Ground Up
This Month’s Memory Verse:
“Don’t do anything only to get ahead. Don’t do it because you are proud. Instead, be humble. Value others more than yourselves.” Philippians 2:3, NIrV
This Month’s Virtue:
Humility—Putting others first by giving up what you think you deserve
Rise Again
Crucified and Risen | John 18:12–20:23 (John 16; Matthew 26)
For week 2, we celebrate Easter by taking a closer look at John 18:12-20:23. The religious leaders were up in arms because Jesus had claimed to be God. It didn’t matter that this was TRUE; the leaders were still ready to dish out the ultimate punishment. And Jesus chose to humble Himself, give up everything, and go to the cross. Then, God raised Jesus back to life! We’ll see how Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection make it possible for us to have a forever relationship with God.
I can trust God no matter what.
Bottom Line
Celebrate because Jesus is alive.
This is what Easter is all about. Jesus put us first. He gave up everything He deserved in order to rescue us from the consequences of sin. Jesus conquered death and is alive! We hope that kids leave with a clearer understanding of how much God loves us and wants to have a relationship with us through Jesus.
