APRIL 26
BIBLE STORY SUMMARY
In Luke 24:13-35, we find two followers of Jesus on their way to Emmaus. From what we read, it seems they were sad and confused by Jesus’ death on the cross. Little did they know that Jesus was walking with them. He explained how Jesus’ death was the answer to years of God’s promises to the Israelites. They were shocked when they realized that this person was Jesus. They ran back to Jerusalem to tell everyone about what they had just seen. That's why our Bottom Line this week is: There’s always more to discover about God’s plan. What we help kids understand about God is important. We get to lay a foundation of faith that will set them up to keep learning about God as they grow and mature in their faith. We pray that kids discover that, through Jesus, God has a unique plan for their life and as they follow Him, they’ll start to see where that plan will take them.

"WE ALL MADE A GIANT PIVOT. NOW WHAT?" By Sarah Anderson There’s an episode of Friends (I know, my age is showing) where Ross is trying to get a new couch into his apartment and is attempting to carry it up the steps to move it in, and it isn’t going well. As they try to maneuver around the corners of the stairwell, Ross keeps saying, “Pivot, pivot, PIVOT.” These past few weeks have felt like one giant pivot in life.

FAMILY DISCUSSION:
Read this month's memory verse: “Don’t do anything only to get ahead. Don’t do it because you are proud. Instead, be humble. Value
others more than yourselves.” PHILIPPIANS 2:3, NIrV
Drive time:
Ask your child to help you see opportunities to let others go first while driving. Let someone ahead of you, let the next person go in the drive through, or show patience in traffic. While finding these opportunities, ask your child, "What is a way you can put someone first today?"
