Epiphany Season: Diary of a Godly Kid

Sometimes we say: “I’m not big enough,” or “I’m not smart enough,” or “I’m not good

enough.” But God says: “You can do BIG things, if you have a heart that seeks after

Me!”

Memory Verse: Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “Plans for good not for evil, plans to give you a future and hope.”

MIRACULOUS - Marveling at the Miracles of Jesus! is an illusion-themed series that teaches kids about the true Miracles of Jesus! This series explores the miracles of Jesus leading up to His resurrection, but it is more than that! The focus is on how Jesus is still doing miracles today! Each lesson explores the conditions that led to the miracles Jesus did: obedience, faith, belief, action, submission and more. If we want to see God do miracles in our lives, we must commit to these conditions!
