Story
Say: Today’s story is in the
New Testament. We are going to read a
story that Jesus told to teach us something about God.
Read “The Vineyard
Workers” in any children's story Bible
Lesson
Say: How much did the
farmer give the first group of workers (A day’s wage) What about the other
workers (A day’s wage). What did the
first group of workers feel about that? (They were angry). What did the farmer ask the workers? (Are you
upset because I am being generous?)
God is generous like the farmer.
We don’t earn his love and we don’t earn salvation. It is a gift.
Jesus died to give us that gift just like soldiers died to give us our
freedom. As Americans we are born with
that freedom. We can be reborn and have
salvation if we accept that gift Jesus gave us.
Big Idea
God is generous. We don’t earn
His love and we don’t earn salvation. It
is a gift. Jesus died to give us that
gift just like soldiers died to give us our freedom.
Memory Verse
From God's generosity we have received on blessing after another. John 1:16.
