1 Week 2 TWO s & PK - JUNE 10th/11th (22.2) The Unmerciful Servant Bible Passages: Matthew 18:21-25 Main Point: Jesus taught about God s forgiveness 2 s Memory Verse:...he had compassion on them -Mark 6:34 Preschool Memory Verse:...he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd. -Mark 6:34 Leader Preparation Your role as a leader in the classroom is the most important role in the Loop as you are the direct connection to the whole reason we gather - to share the love of Christ with kids at Park! If you are not prepared to lead well in your service, then that affects the experience of the children in your care. To help prepare for this lesson, use the following study guide to set the context for this week s lesson. And don t forget to pray before, during and after! Jesus had been teaching His disciples when Peter asked Jesus, How many times should I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Peter suggested seven times. Jews considered it standard to show forgiveness three times (see Job 33:29-30), so Peter probably thought he was going above and beyond. Jesus answered Peter s question by telling a story about an unmerciful servant. In the parable, a servant owed his master ten thousand talents. A talent was equal to about 20 years of wages. Ten thousand talents represented a debt that could never be repaid. Faced with debtors prison, the servant begged for more time to repay the master. Instead, the master released his servant and forgave the great debt. The same servant went out and confronted a man who owed him a hundred denarii about 100 days of wages. The man begged for more time, but the servant refused and put the man in prison. When the master heard what happened, he was angry that the servant who had been forgiven a great debt did not show mercy to the man who owed a small debt. So the master put the man in prison until he could pay his debt. Jesus concluded the parable by explaining that God would react in the same way to anyone who does not forgive his brother. We are like the servant, and God is like the master. Because of our sin, we owe a debt we cannot pay. We deserve to be punished for our sin, but God the Father showed His love by sending His Son, Jesus, to pay the debt we owe. Jesus lived the perfect life we fail to live and died the death we deserve to die. We come to Him with nothing to offer but empty hands of faith. Those who trust in Jesus are completely forgiven. As you teach preschoolers, emphasize that God shows mercy to us so that we will show mercy to others not just three times or seven times, but many times not keeping count. We have been forgiven a great debt, so we can forgive others when they sin against us.
2 Welcome // (15 minutes) Leaders: Pay attention to kids as they enter the room and be sure to greet them with a big smile! Make sure that you make each kid feel special when they arrive each week. Invite them to come sit or play with you. Learn their names. 2 s Preschool Before children arrive, set out toys to engage the kids when they are dropped off and turn on background music CD/flash drive. Remember that separation anxiety is common and normal with this age. The best way to combat this is to distract them with fun right away. Consider these activities: One leader singing songs with kids Having bubbles or bubble machine in one corner of the room Blocks or Cars set up and ready to play Playdough at a table Coloring- crayons and paper Set up the two activities below before children arrive, and turn on background music CD/Flash Drive. Kids can participate in either activity as they enter the room. 1. Activity page What You Need: More or less activity pages, crayons What You Do: Circle the stack with the most coins in each row What You Say: In today s Bible story, Jesus told a story about a servant who owed a king fifty million silver coins! Another man owed the servant one hundred silver coins. Fifty million is much more than one hundred. Listen to our Bible story to discover what happened to the servant. 2. Perform actions seven times What You Do: Call out an action and lead preschoolers in completing that action seven times. Possible actions include: jumping, squatting, touching your toes, jumping jacks, patting your head, lifting arms above your head, and so forth. Count to seven out loud as preschoolers perform each action. What You Say: Good job doing those actions seven times! In today s Bible story, Peter asked Jesus how many times he should forgive someone. He thought seven was a good number, but Jesus said something different. 2
3 TRANSITION TO CIRCLE TIME Circle Time // (25 minutes) MUSIC While the kids finish playing, get the worship CD/DVD/flash drive ready. Decide which 3 or 4 songs you are going to sing today. Say: It s circle time! Come sit in a circle with us! We re going to sing some fun songs together that worship God! Why do we sing to God? ( Answer: To honor Him with our worship!) 2 s STORYTIME Preschool STORY TIME Say: Today s Lesson comes from God s Word, the Bible! Why do we read the Bible? (Answer: To know God s Word in our hearts!). Read the following text while showing the children this week s Bible Story Picture. The text will be printed on the back of the picture in your supplies: Peter had a question for Jesus. How many times should I forgive someone? Peter asked. Seven times? Jesus said, Not just seven times, but seventy times seven times! Then Jesus told Peter a story. He wanted Peter to know what forgiveness is like in God s kingdom. One day, a king called for his servants. How much money do you owe me? the king asked. One of the servants owed the king fifty million silver coins! The servant did not have fifty million silver coins, so the king said that the servant and his family would be sold instead. The servant begged the king, Please give me Say: Today s Lesson comes from God s Word, the Bible! Why do we read the Bible? (Answer: To know God s Word in our hearts!). Watch today s teaching video OR read the following text while showing the children this week s Bible Story Picture: Peter had a question for Jesus. How many times should I forgive someone? Peter asked. Seven times? Jesus said, Not just seven times, but seventy times seven times! Then Jesus told Peter a story. He wanted Peter to know what forgiveness is like in God s kingdom. One day, a king called for his servants. How much money do you owe me? the king asked. One of the servants owed the king fifty million silver coins! The servant did not have fifty million silver coins, so the king said that the servant and his family would be sold instead. The servant begged the king, Please give me 3
4 The king felt sorry for the servant, so he let the servant go and forgave his debt. The servant did not have to pay the king anything at all! Then the servant saw a man who owed him one hundred silver coins. He grabbed the man and said, Give me my money! The man begged the servant, Please give me But the servant did not forgive the man. He threw the man into jail. Some other servants told the king what happened. The king called for the servant he had forgiven. You are an evil man! the king said. You owed me more money than you could ever repay, and I forgave you; but that man owed you a little bit of money and you did not forgive him. The king was angry. He punished the servant and made him pay back all the money he owed. After Jesus told the story, He said, This is what My Father in heaven will do if you do not forgive each other. Christ Connection: Because of our sin, we owe God more than we could ever repay. We deserve to be punished. But Jesus came and died on the cross for our sin. He was punished instead of us. He paid what we owe God. When we trust in Jesus, God forgives our sin all of it! We can forgive others because God has forgiven us so much. The king felt sorry for the servant, so he let the servant go and forgave his debt. The servant did not have to pay the king anything at all! Then the servant saw a man who owed him one hundred silver coins. He grabbed the man and said, Give me my money! The man begged the servant, Please give me But the servant did not forgive the man. He threw the man into jail. Some other servants told the king what happened. The king called for the servant he had forgiven. You are an evil man! the king said.

(pretend you have a staff in your hand) Mark 6:34 (open your hands like a book) OFFERING Pass around the offering bag or bucket to collect any offering for today. Say: Why do we collect offering?
