Knowing Him By NameSample
The Way
Help your child follow a maze puzzle, such as the Clubhouse magazine maze “Town of David.” (Search “Only One Way” at ThrivingFamily.com.) Discuss how there is one way to the end.
Just like there is only one way through the maze, there is only one way to enter a relationship with God. Jesus is called “the Way” because He is the only path to God. People have tried several other ways (following other gods, doing good things, giving money to charity), but none of these ways have helped them start a relationship with God. Jesus is the only way to God.
Scripture
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."
