JULY 12 -- BIBLE STORY SUMMARY
This week, we follow Paul’s journey as he goes to Athens, a city known for statues and idols to false gods. In Acts 17 we see how Paul noticed a statue they had to an “unknown god” as if the people of Athens were covering their bases, just in case they missed a god out there. Paul used this to share the truth of Jesus with the people.
That's why our Bottom Line this week is: You can help others know Jesus.
Regardless of how old someone is, if they have a relationship with Jesus, they can help others know Him too. We want kids to realize the simple ways they can share Jesus with others. From inviting them to church to being kind and sharing their toys, kids can play a huge role in helping their friends start a relationship with God.

"FAMILY VOICE" By Carey Nieuwhof There’s this thing that I believe every family has. I don’t actually know what to call it. If we were having a conversation, I wouldn’t be able to imitate it. But I know it when I hear it. I hear it in shopping malls, in crowds, when families get into and out of their homes and cars, at restaurants, and when I’m a guest in someone’s home. I’ve heard it for years in my home. And I have one too. What is it? This isn’t the scientific name for it at all, but in my head I call it family voice. You know what I’m talking about. It’s the tone of voice you would never use except around the people closest to you . . . CONTINUE READING ON THE PARENT CUE BLOG Copyright © 2020 The reThink Group, Inc.
