Questions and Responses: Below are questions and responses to help your child interact with the Scripture passage, and to solicit a personal response from both of you to the truths of the Bible story. Please allow the Holy Spirit to guide you to further questions and responses.
- Do you remember the Bible verse, "Children obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right?" (Ephesians 6:1)Do you like to obey your mom and dad? Sometimes would you rather do something else than what mom and dad tell you to do? (Discuss how it is good to obey even when you don't feel like it.)
- There is someone that it's more important to obey than mom and dad--God. Does anyone obey God all the time?
- No one obeys God perfectly all the time--except Jesus.
- What is Jesus praying about in the garden? God is telling Jesus it is time for Him to do something very important--people are going to come and arrest Him, and then kill Him. It's going to hurt lots and lots --more than any of your "owies" have hurt. Do you think this was easy for Jesus to do? (No, it wasn't easy, but He obeyed gladly, not grudgingly.)
- Do you know what it means to confess your sins and to repent? Why did these people need to confess sins and repent? Do you have any sins to confess or anything you need to repent of? (Pray together.)
- Who can save us from our sin? Does being baptized save us? (only Jesus can save us from our sins.)
Discovery Zone 2 will be using He Has Spoken By His Son, a Children Desiring God Curriculum November 2016 - September 2017
