Be kind and compassionate to one another…
Ephesians 4:32a
Jesus modeled kindness and compassion for us. In turn, as parents, we can model those Jesus qualities for our children. I love how Lael Stone talks about modeling this for our children in this short clip from a TED Talk entitled “How To Raise Emotionally Intelligent Children.” We know it’s working when we see it in our children!
Modeling Compassion

February Memory Verse:
Ephesians 4:32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
Lesson: “What a Catch!”
(Jesus and the miraculous catch of fish)
Scripture Text: John 21:1-14
Lesson Aim: For children to understand that Jesus helps us when we are discouraged.
