Gospel Project for Kids: Unit 2 Overview

We are almost done with Unit 1 and the kids are loving the new curriculum! We are using the Gospel Project for Kids in our classes from age 2 years- 5th grade.
All materials shared in this post are reprinted and used by permission. Thank you, Lifeway!

Here's an overview of what Unit 2 will cover.

Unit 2 Big Ideas:
Parents, you can use the link above to download these images to use at home. After the lesson on Sunday, use the pictures to ask your child about what they learned in class.

October 18: God's Covenant with Abraham



October 25: God Tested Abraham

November 1: The Promise Reaffirmed


The link above is to 4 different versions of this passage. The NIV translation is what is pictured below.  

This is the scripture that will be referenced throughout this unit. It is modified for the younger kids. Make sure to look through the handouts your child receives each week to see how this verse is modified.

Unit 2 Big Picture Question:




The lessons in this unit are based with this question in mind. When doing your home devotionals, make sure you are working with your child on understanding this big question. 

 *********************************************************

Parents, we would LOVE to hear about how your family devotions are going! 
  • Is the material being shared helpful? 
  • Are students excited to bring home materials to share? 
  • Is your child able to talk about the story that was taught?
  • Are your children making connections from the Bible story to their lives? We really want our children to see that the Bible and its teaching are still relevant today. 

As a parent of twin first graders, I can say that they are excited to share the Big Idea each week. They are so proud of themselves when they can recite the verse and read the material sent home. I'm glad that they're able to use their handouts as read-aloud material. Reading practice!!

Please leave a comment-or two- in the comment section at the end of this post. We want to hear from you!
