The temple courts were known throughout Judea as a place of learning. At the time of Passover, the greatest rabbis would assemble to teach and discuss great truths among themselves. Jesus would have been eager to listen to the teachers and to ask probing questions. This session will lead kids to understand that Jesus grew physically and mentally, he related to other people, and he was loved by God. Kids can learn that it is important for them to learn about God just as Jesus did.
