Strong & Courageous

This past Sunday in Kids Church (1st-6th grades), we began a new series called "Imagine". We are learning about Joshua's imaginative leadership and discovering the Promise, Protection, Pathway, Picture and Power that God  provides His people.

This is a video series, brought to us by Kidmo. We try to use video lessons a few times throughout the year to keep things fresh and to give us time to plan creative elements for our live stuff.

This week, the kids learned that God wants us to be strong and courageous. We learned that God wants us to live every day aware that He is right by our sides.

In our small groups, we discussed the following questions:

• How can we be strong and courageous when others make us feel weak?  We talked about times that we felt like giving up because of something someone else said to us.
• Why would God tell us to be strong and courageous?  We read Joshua 1:5-9 as a group and discussed why God would tell Joshua to be strong and courageous so many times.
• Why would we need God's courage?  We talked about reasons someone might become afraid, and how knowing God is with us might change that fear to courage.
