Journey to Bethlehem Lessons Overview:
Memory Verse:
“But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.’” Luke 2:10-11 (NIV)
Joseph - The Faithful One:
Joseph didn't believe Mary. How was it possible that the child inside her had been conceived by the Holy Spirit? But when an angel spoke to Joseph in a dream, Joseph listened. He took a leap of faith and learned that trusting God, even when it doesn't make sense, is always right.
The Magi - The Watchful Ones:
The Jews had all the prophecies, but they were not looking for the Messiah. It was the Magi, men who learned from the prophet Daniel, who knew that Jesus, the Savior was born in Bethlehem.
The Shepherds - The Lowly Ones:
The angels didn't tell the king. They didn't tell the rich and powerful. They told shepherds. The good news of Christmas isn't for a select few. It's for everyone!
Baby Jesus - The Most Important One:
He traveled the farthest, and gave up the most to be there on Christmas. He is the only Christmas present we ever need.
