Now tell me: Who do you need? [Bottom Line] I need Jesus.

6 Theo is a familiar friend that preschoolers look forward to! He gets children ready to hear the Bible story. Make it True Theo Flashlight TEACHER: THEO: TEACHER: Hi kids. I have a special friend named Theo. Let's knock on his door and see if he's home. (Knock on box repeatedly.) Hmmm. He's not answering. Let's listen." (Snore loudly) Let s wake up Theo on the count of three. Ready? One.. two three.. Wake up Theo! THEO: Hi boys and girls! I m so glad you re here today. Would you like to see what is inside my box? Use this time with Theo as a large group activity. To say goodbye, mention to the children that they can air high five, Blow kisses to Theo, or just wave goodbye. Remind them if they would like a hug later you can do so during snack, wrap up or closing activity, EVERYONE: THEO: TEACHER: THEO: TEACHER: THEO: TEACHER: It s a flashlight You re right! It s a flashlight. I was camping in my backyard and I heard a noise & I was scared, so I turned on my flashlight to see what it was. What was it, Theo? I don t know, I was so scared, that I ran back inside & hid under my covers. You know Theo, there is someone that is always there, even when you are scared. Do you know who that is, Theo? Yes, it s Jesus. Can you tell us a Bible story to help me for when I am scared? Sure thing Theo. Let s say goodbye to Theo, everyone. EVERYONE: Bye, Theo. (See side note for large group goodbyes)

7 Make it True Bible story Bible Jesus on a stick Boat on a stick Waves Hi, friends! I m so happy to see you all today! I m so excited to tell a true Bible story today. (Hold up Jesus and the boat) Today s story begins with Jesus and His friends, the disciples in a boat on the lake. Now, Jesus was sleeping on the boat. Well, that s kinda silly. Can you pretend to be asleep like me? (Demonstrate) Yep, I think that s about what Jesus looked like. Now, in this story, it began to rain. When it started to rain over the boat, it wasn t just a little sprinkle. No, this was a big (hold hands up to show size) HUGE storm! Yiiiiikes! Can you guys pat your hands on your legs to sound like rain? (Demonstrate.) Faster! Faster! Faster! So it rained reeeeeeallly hard. And there was thunder and lightning! Can you make a thunder sound with me? On the count of three: 1-2-3,,,,BOOM! Again! 1-2-3,,,,BOOM! Yikes! And there was tons of WIND! Let s make the wind together. (Demonstrate.)(Have the boat sway back & forth) Whoa! The wind blew the boat this way(tilt to one side) and it blew the boat that way.(tilt to other side) Back and forth it went with the waves getting higher and higher! Yikes! That s kinda scary! The disciples wanted the storm to stop. They were so scared. Can you make a scared face with me? (Demonstrate) But they couldn t make the storm stop themselves. But we know someone who could do that. (Pause.)Jesus! YES! So, the disciples woke Jesus up and asked Him to help them. Isn t that funny that Jesus was still asleep through that bumpy, stormy boat ride?! So, Jesus woke up, stood up and told the wind and the waves to (loudly, with arms outstretched with command) STOP! (Whisper) Do you know what happened? The wind and the waves DID stop! Because Jesus is God s Son, he told those waves and that wind to stop! You see, guys, there is nothing too big for Jesus. He can calm a storm. He can do ANYTHING. So, we don t have to be afraid. The disciples needed Jesus, and we need Jesus too. Wait. Who do you need? Continued on next page

8 Make it True Bible story CHILDREN & TEACHER: [Bottom Line] I need Jesus. TEACHER: That s right. We need Jesus when we re afraid for sure! When you get scared, ask Jesus to help you. Nothing is too big for Him. Just remember to ask for help because those disciples needed Jesus, and you need Jesus, too. [Bottom Line] I need Jesus, we ALL need Jesus. Let s pray. PRAYER Dear God, thank You for Jesus. If we get scared this week, we know that we can ask Jesus to help us and He will. We love You, God. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

9 Reinforce the Bottom Line of our Bible story with fun crafts! When kids have something to Stormy/clear sky wheel take home and show their parents, it can prompt further dialogue at home! Make it Stick craft Jesus calms the storm WHAT YOU DO: 1. Write child s name on the blue water. 2. Have children color Jesus in the boat. Blue Water Jesus 3. Have children glue Jesus in the boat to the blue water 4. Once children are done, they can turn the wheel to retell the lesson of how Jesus calmed the storm. Crayons Glue-sticks We need Jesus when we are scared. Key Question: Who do we need? Bottom Line: I need Jesus! DO Sit with the children and chat. Encourage children in the classroom to make a craft. SAY God gave us Jesus. Jesus gives us what we need. Take a pic of them creating the craft. Please send the pic to your hallway coordinator. It ll go on Facebook.

10 Use the few minutes of calm and quiet while kids are snacking to read the Bible story from the Beginner's Bible (it never hurts to hear it one more time!), practice the memory verse, and then pray. Make it Stick Wrap-up Goldfish crackers Optionalstickers During snack: Read the Bible story from the Beginner's Bible Practice the memory verse Pray snack Have helpers take kids to potty/change any diapers if needed *** Now is a good time to have Theo come back out & give hugs & kisses Beginner s Bible (Jesus Calms the Storm pg. 334) Snack is a GREAT time to re-read the Bible story and review the memory verse, because everyone is quietly eating! PRAY Dear God, thank you for giving us Jesus to be our friend when we are scared. Help us remember that Jesus is with us & he can anything, so we don t have to be scared. We love you, In Jesus name, amen. MEMORY VERSE You are (Point up) Everything (Hands out to side) I need. (Point thumbs to chest) Psalm 119:57 (Open hands like a book)

When I hold up the GO sign, I want you to GO.
