Son of Man
On slips of paper, write five miracles of Jesus and five things Jesus did that humans do. Ask your children to take turns drawing the slips out of a bowl and answering, “Was Jesus doing something that most humans do or something only He could do?”
Even though Jesus was God’s Son with all His heavenly qualities, Jesus was also human. That’s one of the reasons He was called the Son of Man. Jesus also understood what the prophet Daniel was talking about when he described someone “like a son of man, coming with the clouds.” This prophecy was talking about Jesus’ divine glory, which would be revealed at His Second Coming. So when Jesus declared Himself the “Son of Man,” He was telling people His identity as both God and man.

About this Plan
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."
