Shine Your Light in the Dark!

We've taken the key elements of our Glow! 4-Week Children's Ministry Curriculum and converted them into easy lessons that you can send to all the parents in your church to do at home as a family.

Kids will have some fun with glow stick crafts and activities as they learn how they can shine brightly for Jesus to show others that Jesus is the light of the world. Kids will learn that Jesus can brighten anyone’s life just like a light brightens a dark room.

Glow! Lesson Overview:

Memory Verse: “In the same way, let your light shine in front of others. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will praise your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 (NIrV)

Lessons:

The Light of the World

Scripture: John 1:1-15, John 8:12-19, Jesus is the Light of the World

Our light comes from Jesus. If we want to shine brightly in the dark, we have to put our faith in Jesus, the true light of the world. Kids will create Glow Jars. This will remind kids that when we accept  Jesus as our Lord and Savior He fills our hearts with love that can shine for all the world to see. 

Objective: Kids will know that Jesus is the Light of the World.

Shine Your Light

Scripture: Matthew 5:13-16, Salt and Light

Jesus has put his light inside of his followers. We aren't to hide that light away, but to share it with the world. Kids will create Glow Balloons (glow sticks carefully inserted into balloons) to remind them that our light is to be big and bold for all the world to see. 

Objective: Kids will learn what it means to shine their light. 

Living Water

Scripture: John 4:1-14, The Living Water

When we shine our light, we give people a chance to share in the life of Jesus. Jesus called this living water, which wells up to eternal life. Kids will enjoy some Glow in the Dark Drinks (glow bracelets in the bottom of a clear cup with another liquid filled cup stacked on top) to remind us of the importance of Jesus' living water. 

Objective: Kids will learn that Jesus offers eternal life to anyone who puts their faith in Him.

Burning Bright

Scripture: Acts 2:1-12, Pentecost

The Holy Spirit came to the disciples, glowing like flames of fire above their heads. They went out boldly from there and shared the good news of Jesus to others. Kids will play Glow In The Dark Bowling (glow sticks in water bottle pins and a ball of your choice) to remind them that just as the bowling ball helps the pins reach other pins, the Holy Spirit still helps us share the love of Jesus with other people.   

Objective: Kids will learn that the Holy Spirit helps us shine our light.
