Knowing Him By Name

DAY 9 OF 25

Mediator

Tell your family that if they want to talk to you, they must find someone else in the house to “connect” the two of you. The “connector” must hold your hand and a hand of the person who wants to talk with you. After playing this game awhile, explain that the person who serves as a connector is a “mediator.” People need a mediator because of sin. God, who is holy, must separate Himself from sinners. Jesus is called a mediator because He reconciles, or connects, us with God. Because Jesus suffered and died for humankind’s sins, He has become the perfect mediator between humans and God.

About this Plan

Knowing Him By Name

As Matthew 20:28 tells us, "the son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many." Families can follow Christ's example by serving others. For each day of Advent, we have found scripture and a family activity or conversation to talk about and show what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus, so that we may all "Know Him By Name."
