Discovering Jesus
In this 5-lesson series, children will put on their detective hats as they discover new things each day about who Jesus is. They will see that Jesus loves the lost, Jesus takes away sin, only Jesus satisfies, Jesus has power over death and they can put their faith in Jesus. By using a different detective “prop” each day, the teaching segments—Bible lesson, memory verse, prayer time—tie together and provide extra fun for the children. The props are easily obtained (glasses, flashlight, magnifying glass, badge and camera) The detective theme is carried through in the games and activities recommended for this series. (This series replaces the Knowing Christ series.)
