The ULTIMATE Final Answer
Kids will experience the Easter story as never before as they become contestants in the ultimate game show – The Epic Easter Trivia Show. These 5 lessons will help kids learn that Jesus' death and resurrection is the ultimate final answer over sin and gives us hope for eternal life.
MEMORY VERSE:
“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.” John 11:25b (NIV)
LESSONS:
1) Come on Down - Come on down and answer trivia about the events that took place on the day we call Palm Sunday. It began with joy as the people called out to Jesus to “come on down” into Jerusalem, and it ended with anger as Jesus drove out the merchants from the temple.
Scripture: Luke 19:28-48, The Triumphal Entry and Jesus at the Temple
Objective: Kids will learn “Jesus is King and Jesus is Righteous.”
2) Big Money - People go on game shows to win the big money. The widow at the temple gave very little, but Jesus saw that it was really the most generous gift of all. Later Jesus agreed to give Jesus over to Jerusalem's leaders in exchange for 30 pieces of silver.
Scripture: Luke 21:1-4, The Widow's Offering & Luke 22:1-6, Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
Objective: Kids will learn “Jesus cares about the state of my heart.”
3) Showcase - On a game show, the showcase is where we see the big prizes. Just days before his crucifixion, one woman showcased her big love for Jesus by anointing him. At the Last Supper, Jesus showcased his big love by washing his disciple's feet.
Scripture: Matthew 26:6-13, Jesus Anointed at Bethany & John 13:1-17, Jesus Washes His Disciples Feet
Objective: Kids will learn, “Jesus shows his love to me, and I can show my love to Jesus.”
4) Buzz In - There was a lot of buzz around town when Jesus entered Jerusalem, and even more when Jesus was arrested. Those who came to see his arrest came in contact with Peter, who denied even knowing Jesus, which Jesus had told him was exactly what would happen.
Scripture: Mark 19:12-72, The Last Supper and Jesus Arrested
Objective: Kids will learn, “I want to be bold for Jesus and not afraid.”
5) Win or Lose - When Jesus died, his enemies thought that they had won and that Jesus had lost. But on the third day, Jesus conquered death and proved that He is the victor always and forever.
Scripture: Mark 15, The Death of Jesus & Luke 24:1-12, The Resurrection
Objective: Kids will learn, “Jesus wins! Everyone who follows Jesus wins!”
