Knowing Him By NameSample
Truth
Ask your children to make three statements about a toy—two that accurately describe the toy and one that is inaccurate. Ask your kids to tell you which statements are true. Older kids can look for true or false statements in ads. Talk about why the writers of these ads may try to mislead people.
Jesus always tells the truth. He represents everything that is honest, good and true; but more than that, He is the Truth. He said that He came to die for our sins and one day we would live with Him and the Father. And that’s a statement you can be sure is true.
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."
