Under Pressure

Peter and John Are Taken to the Sanhedrin | Acts 3:1–4:21

In Acts 3:1-4:21, we see that Jesus’ mission wasn’t going to be easy for the disciples. Luke tells us that Peter healed someone in the name of Jesus and ended up causing quite a stir. As people gathered, Peter and John used this moment to share the message of Jesus. Soon though, the religious leaders arrested them and had them stand trial. Peter and John showed confidence in Jesus. They made it clear that no matter what happened to them, they would continue sharing Jesus’ love with others.

God is with you no matter what.

Bottom Line

God is with you no matter what.


At some point, kids will learn that even when we follow Jesus, life won’t always be easy. However, we want them to learn as soon as possible that we are promised that God will always be with us. Just because a situation we face is difficult, that doesn’t mean it’s time to give up. We pray that kids will learn to lean into the power of God and have the confidence they need to keep going.
