The Challenge

So you prepare for the bible class for kids 8 to 12 years old. The kids arrive. Six of them. But… four of them are less than six years old! So… while I'm playing the guitar and Faby is leading the songs, I'm thinking, "What am I going to do with these four youngsters?" OK, kids love to draw and color. So we'll start with that, and while they're busy, I'll try to teach the lesson on the Parable of the Mustard Seed to the two older kids. Now, Anibal our host, is with us, plus Jorge, who lives with us and comes with his son. i find that I'm not teaching the lesson just to the two older kids, but also to the two adults who are right with us. I think Anibal is the one I'm really teaching. The kids enjoy the songs, games, and crafts. One sows, another reaps. This is definitely sowing.
