Avengers Assemble! Loki's Lesson on Christ!


Sally Storie Interview :





Memory Verse :

Jonah 2:8

New International Version (NIV)
 “Those who cling to worthless idols
    turn away from God’s love for them.


Doe Doe and The Imposters!! (An Object Lesson on Idols) :





Doe Doe shows the Lakewood Kids what can happen if you put something higher than God in your life!



Bible Lesson : 


Matt. 3, Matt. 20:20-24, John 8:28, Matt 26:39, Matt 6:23



There are many times the Bible gives us to show how Christ did as His Father in Heaven wanted Him to.  Each of these times should help strengthen our dedication to Him and the cause that His death started.  Loki demanded the kneeling of everyone to him, and there may be things that will demand more of you than you should give.  Those things can become idols very quickly.  Learning how to keep God #1 at all times is a very important thing to do.  In no way can we split ourselves between more than one 'master'.  Christ gave us the greatest example of this lifestyle and we all should look at these stories to remember and be ready to do as God wills in our lives just as Christ did in His!

Avengers Assemble! Captain America's Lesson on Christ!


Sally Storie Interview :






Memory Verse :

Psalm 136:2-4 

New International Version (NIV)
 Give thanks to the God of gods.
His love endures forever.
 Give thanks to the Lord of lords:
His love endures forever.
 to him who alone does great wonders,
His love endures forever.


Pastor Derek and The Hot Steel Ball (An Object Lesson on Change) :




 Pastor Derek talks about how God does not change, but we may - and that could cause problems.!



Bible Lesson : 


Exodus


Captain America experienced a time like the Israelites.  For seventy years he was trapped in ice.. staying the same.  Those that first came to the promised land had this happen to them too.  They decided they could not take what God had for them and then were forced to walk in the desert for 40 years.  Those that were the same and did not think they could take it died and those that were more acceptable to the change were the ones who entered the promised land.  The same thing happened with Christ for the Jewish community.  Expecting a warrior king to come and save them; they were not ready for a humble servant that had an ultimate purpose in death.  God said that Jesus was a stumbling block to them.  Because of this, we - or rather ALL are now accepted into the kingdom, or family of God.  You do not need to be of the nation.  God does not change. If He is our focus we can make it though anything.. no matter the change.

Avengers Assemble! Hawkeye's Lesson on Christ!


Sally Storie Interview :






Memory Verse :

1 Timothy 4:12

New Living Translation (NLT)
Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity.


Doe Doe and The Great Faith of The Small : 






Doe Doe shows an example of how it is possible that the youngest and smallest can be the greatest!



Bible Lesson : 

Luke 19 - Zaccheaus and Jesus 

Hawkeye has great sight.  His aim is always on target.  In the movie he was able to figure out something that no 'top level' scientist was able to figure out.  He is not one of the big a characters, but really pulled off some amazing things.  Zacchaeus was much like him.  He climbed to a higher point in order to gain a better sight of his target.  He wanted to see Jesus and set his aim on Christ.  Because of this he gained even more than all those others in the crowd.  He was able to have Jesus in his home.  If we can set our sights on Christ, we can learn so much more about him and that is what these next few weeks will be about.

Rock a Bye Baby - Lesson 31 of Nursery Rhyme and Silly Songs







 Rock a bye baby on the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock,
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,
And down will come baby, cradle and all.



2 Thessalonians 3:3

New Living Translation (NLT)
 But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.



 
Exodus 2

Moses In The Nile

We all want to feel protected, and it is odd that the most widely sung song to calm us speaks of dropping from a tree.  The good thing is that our God is a mighty protector!  We can certainly trust in Him!  If we look to a tiny baby Moses traveling in the Nile river with the 'protection' of only a basket we may be able to grasp His power in protection.  For moses to be place infested with hippos, snakes, bacteria, and alligators just to be found by likely the ONE person in Egypt that could save his life is really showing the protective power of God!

Queen of Hearts - Lesson 30 of Nursery Rhyme and Silly Songs










The Queen of Hearts she made some tarts all on a summer's day;
The Knave of Hearts he stole the tarts and took them clean away.
The King of Hearts called for the tarts and beat the Knave full sore
The Knave of Hearts brought back the tarts and
vowed he'd steal no more.



Ephesians 4:28

English Standard Version (ESV)
 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need.



 
Joshua 7

Achan's Theft

No matter the account of theft, even one in 'nursery rhyme' form, there are serious consequences for committing the act.  The Knave is beat and decides to never steal again, Achan did not get the luxury of being able to change his mind of the act.  It is true he likely decided to never steal again, but due to the nature of his theft, he and his family were killed.  Would you rather take the chance now to decide that stealing is not a good idea, or end up in a place where your consequences are so great that you have no life to live that choice?

Little Boy Blue - Lesson 29 of Nursery Rhyme and Silly Songs







Little Boy Blue come blow your horn,
The sheep's in the meadow the cow's in the corn.
But where's the boy who looks after the sheep?
He's under a haystack fast asleep.
Will you wake him? No, not I - for if I do, he's sure to cry



1 Thessalonians 5:17

New International Version (NIV)
pray continually,



Luke 22

The Disciples Falling Asleep While Praying
  
Just like Little Boy Blue, the disciples fell asleep at an important time.  The good thing is that Jesus did not fear their 'tears' when waking them.  Prayer is an amazing tool, and we really see this in the life of Christ.  He prayed SO much, and when in His most desperate time of need he asked other to actively pray with Him.  His example is great - we really should not be forsaking the ability to speak with our Father in heaven!

Mary Had A Little Lamb - Lesson 28 of Nursery Rhyme and Silly Songs







Mary had a little lamb its fleece was white as snow;
And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day, which was against the rule;
It made the children laugh and play, to see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned it out, but still it lingered near,
And waited patiently about till Mary did appear.
"Why does the lamb love Mary so?" the eager children cry;
"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know" the teacher did reply.



Deuteronomy 31:6

New International Version (NIV)
Be strong and courageous.Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”



 Exodus 13 & 14 
Israelites being led by God


Mary's little lamb has an almost crazy connection to Christ always being with us.  The lamb is always with her, but goes to school - against the rules - and politely waits for her to return to be with her again.  When exiting Egypt the Israelites had some of the most amazing experiences with God.  To be able to follow Him as a cloud, or by fire would be amazing.  They did not move unless God moved - and even when it seemed that God was not with them, He was their rear guard protecting them from their enemies.  God is like this for us as well, and that is something to be grateful for!
