Guardians Of Ancora Bible Plan: Jesus Forgives And Heals

Dia 4 de 5

OUTSIDE AND INSIDE

As he lay there at the feet of Jesus unable to move, it was obvious what the problem was. It was plain for all to see. Along with everyone else, Jesus observed the man on the outside, but he also knew what the man was like on the inside. So what did he do? He dealt with both problems. He sorted the obvious external need the man had, but he also dealt with his hidden, internal need too. He forgave the man’s sins and in so doing gave him a fresh start – inside and out!

Jesus knows us inside out too. Exactly. Ah. That’s not so good. All that stuff that we keep hidden. He knows. All those thoughts we have. He knows. And those things we say and do that we regret. He knows.

But he still loves us and, amazingly, he wants to forgive us and change us on the inside to be the very best for him – the people God intended us to be.

TALKABOUT

What did Jesus do for the man who could not walk? What do you think that tells us about Jesus?

TALKING WITH GOD TOGETHER

Choose a phrase related to today’s Bible reading, maybe ‘Jesus, healer, helper, friend’. Try the ancient method of ‘breath prayers’, quietly together. Close your eyes and be calm, as you start to feel the rhythm of your breathing. Repeat the phrase silently, over and over, for about a minute (or longer, if you’re all at ease with the stillness).

PLAYING GUARDIANS OF ANCORA

Switch on your device, go to the Spire and select the Bible Quest ‘Jesus Forgives and Heals’ (tap the ‘game-controller’ button). You might like to replay, to make sure you have achieved all the ‘stars’ in each chapter.

Time now to explore the Bible story. Take a quiz (tap on the ‘?’ button at the Spire) to see how much you can remember about the story. See if you can beat your own score – or challenge each other in a friendly family contest.

How about a different type of quiz, from the same area of the app? If you were there in Capernaum on that day, who would you have been? Take a Personality Quiz to find out. Compare your answers.

Check out the Family Hub on the Guardians of Ancora website for more family fun around the story ‘Jesus Forgives and Heals’.
