Week 8. The Walls Fall
God’s plans sometimes look strange, but we can trust him.
Memory verse
Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.
Joshua 6:16 (KJV, excerpt)
Read together
Read the Bible passage: Joshua 6.
Picture story: The Walls of Jericho
The picture story is written for ages 3 to 8. Older children can enjoy it too, or read the Bible passage in their own Bible.
Talk about it
- When did you follow instructions that seemed silly?
- What does this story teach about obedience?
Do it
Do something that takes patience, like a long jigsaw, together.
Pray
God, thank you that your ways are wiser than ours.
For the leader
This lesson is great for action: march and shout!
You will need: A long path to march along.
