We have a special Hooray Day in preschool and Game Changer in kids this week where we will pump up the energy and have deep and intentional discussions about celebrating that Jesus changes the game in our lives. Our Main Idea this week is God Leads me to Know Him in preschool and God Leads Me to True Identity in kids. In Psalm 139, King David wrote that God made him on purpose, and he praised God for making him remarkable and special. God made David to know Him and have a relationship with Him. God made us to know Him and have a relationship with Him too. God sent Jesus, making the way for our sins to be forgiven and for us to live the way He created us to live. Let’s teach preschoolers and kids kids that God knows everything about us, He leads us to know Him, and He leads us to true identity.

Our Bible story this week will teach preschoolers and kids that we can love like Jesus. In Matthew 5:43-48, Jesus taught that people who love and follow Him are to love differently. They are to love when it costs them something, even when they are not shown love and kindness in return. Jesus taught that they should even love their enemies. Jesus is our example of how to love. Kids and preschoolers will learn that loving like Jesus looks like loving all people—including and especially our enemies. It is not always easy, but God helps us love differently.

Follow the Leader to discover what is Next Up: Teaching preschoolers and kids that we can trust like Jesus. In our Bible story from Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus told His listeners not to worry but to remember how God provides for His creation. God loves and cares for us more than the birds in the sky or flowers in the fields. God loves us so much that He sent Jesus for us. We can remember how God has provided for us in the past and choose to trust Him in the present and with our future. Kids and preschoolers will learn that we do not have to worry; we can trust that God loves us and provides everything we need.

Our Bible story this week is from Matthew 5:38-42; 6:1-4,19-24. Jesus taught what it means to honor God by serving others. In this Bible passage, Jesus explained that we are called to choose kindness over anger and to care about people, even when we do not think they deserve it. We get to teach preschoolers and kids that God made us to serve because we love God, not because we want the praise of others. Jesus is the greatest example of what it means to serve because He came to serve us. Let’s get preschoolers and kids excited about serving like Jesus!

This week we are teaching preschoolers and kids that they are designed for a purpose and part of that purpose and plan is to live like Jesus. In Matthew 7:24-29, Jesus explained that when we listen to Him and do what He says, we are like the builder who built his house on the rock—the strong foundation. Winds and storms will come, but the house stands strong because it is built on the right foundation. Jesus calls us to live like Him, and that starts with having the right foundation—a relationship with Him. We get to teach preschoolers and kids that living like Jesus means following what God says with hearts full of love for Him.

While we and our world are broken because of sin, we can have hope and trust that something good will happen. Preschoolers and kids will learn this week that they need God’s hope. As we teach 1 Kings 17:8-16, kids will see how God provided for the prophet Elijah. In our Bible story, there was a famine and Elijah needed food. He trusted God to take care of him. Incredibly, God worked through a widow to provide food for Elijah in a miraculous way. We will teach preschoolers and kids that they can have hope, even in our broken world filled with challenging situations. We have an opportunity to teach kids that no matter what happens, God loves them, cares for them, and provides for them—like He did for Elijah. When preschoolers and kids are worried, afraid, or unsure, they can turn to God and have hope that He loves them and will take care of them.

This week we will teach preschoolers and kids that they need God’s compassion. Our Bible story is found in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Jesus taught a crowd who was eager to learn, but also very hungry! Jesus had compassion on the crowd, meaning He saw their need and acted to care and help. Jesus knew the people not only needed His teaching but also actual food, so He miraculously multiplied five loaves of bread and two fish. The whole crowd ate and were satisfied! Kids will learn that we need God’s compassion, too, and He gives it to us. We are broken because of our sin, but God showed compassion by sending Jesus so we can be forgiven and have a relationship with Him.

An important fact we get to teach this week is that we all need God’s forgiveness. In John 4:1-42, Jesus met a Samaritan woman at a well in the middle of the day. Jews and Samaritans did not get along. The fact that this Samaritan woman was at the well in middle of the day meant she had also been rejected by her community. But Jesus did not reject her. Instead, He offered her “living water.” This living water was a new relationship with God and forgiveness for the wrong things she had done in her life. We all need God’s forgiveness, no matter who we are or what we have done. God knows everything about us, yet He loves us and wants to forgive us. Preschoolers and kids will learn that Jesus came to offer us living water—eternal life and forgiveness—because God desires to have a relationship with us. What an amazing opportunity we have this week to teach preschoolers and kids about God’s amazing forgiveness!

We get to teach preschoolers and kids that they need God every day. This week’s Bible story is an overview from Exodus 13–40. God cared for His people, the Israelites, including leading them through the desert with a cloud by day and a fire by night. Even though they were not perfect and made wrong choices, God showed He was always with them. God promised to be with them and provide what they needed when they needed it. We get to teach preschoolers and kids that we need God and His presence in our lives, just like the Israelites needed Him. We are broken because of our sin, but God cares for us every day. Let’s teach preschoolers and kids that when we trust and follow God, He guides us, forgives us, helps us, and leads us.

As we prepare to launch our second 3-year Hyfi Cycle, we will include two new Simple Truths! Enjoy this bonus podcast to learn more about the new truth, "I Am Made New."

In a world of brokenness, all of humanity is looking for a way to put things back together. Sometimes we look for it in status or esteem. Sometimes we look for it in the approval of others. Sometimes we look for it in people or in circumstances. Kids, students, and adults all know the cycle: chasing a sense of satisfaction, only to be let down time and time again. But the place where we can find the real hope and truth we are looking for is in our position before God. As we follow Jesus together, we get to speak the life-giving identity truth over kids and students—that they can be made new in Jesus when they respond to Him in faith. .
