Wait for answers that express different forms of kindness. That s right! Your BFF is nice, fun to hang out with, enjoys some of the same activities as you and is kind! MC Transition: Well guys, God wants us to be KIND to not only our BFF s, but to everyone. He also asks us to be kind all of the time. This means that even when it is difficult, God wants us to try and be kind to others. Today we are going to learn how Jesus showed love to others by being kind. Our Word of the Day is, Love is Kind. Watch It! The following material is covered in the teaching video, Lesson 2. Play DVD The following material is covered in the Teaching Video, Lesson 2. Word of the Day: Love is kind. Definition: Kind considerate, loving; doing something for someone without expecting anything in return This week s Bible Verse: Love is patient and kind... I Corinthians 13:4a (ICB) Bible Lesson: Jesus Heals on the Sabbath Mark 2:23-3:6 (NLT) One day Jesus and His disciples were picking grain to eat on the Sabbath. The Sabbath was the Jewish day of rest and a day to focus only on God. People weren t supposed to do any sort of work on the Sabbath, including picking grain. Remember the Pharisees, the group of religious guys who were trying to trick Jesus into breaking God s laws? These guys saw what Jesus and His disciples were doing and asked Jesus if He thought it was wrong for His disciples to pick grain on the Sabbath even though the disciples were very hungry. Jesus reminded them that many people had done things on the Sabbath and God s desire was for kindness and mercy for others everyday. Jesus said that if someone is in need, they should be helped no matter what day it is. Another time Jesus was walking through the Synagogue, a place for worship. He noticed a man with a crippled hand. It again was the Sabbath so the religious leaders were watching Jesus very BFF/Gr1-2 /Week 2 2 Saddleback Church 2009
3 closely. Would Jesus heal the man s hand on the Sabbath? If He did, the religious leaders planned to accuse Jesus of breaking God s law. According to the Pharisees, no one should do work on the Sabbath. Jesus said to the hurting man, Come and stand in front of everyone. Then He turned to the religious leaders and asked. Is it legal to do good deeds on the Sabbath or is it a day for doing harm? Is this a day to save life or to destroy it? But they would not answer Him. Jesus looked around at them very upset because they had unkind hearts. Then Jesus said to the man, Reach out your hand. The man reached out his hand and it became normal again! Jesus wanted everyone to know that the Sabbath was a day when God s work should be done and healing was definitely God s work! Big Idea: Love is patient and kind. In this story, Jesus did not do what the religious leaders wanted, which was to ignore the man because it was the wrong day to heal him. Instead, Jesus was kind to the man with the crippled hand. What an awesome miracle and act of kindness! Jesus knew it was more important to be kind and to heal on the Sabbath than to worry about what the Pharisees thought of Him. Jesus could have walked past the man and waited until it was more convenient or a better time, but He didn t wait. He chose the right time to be kind. Jesus is the ultimate example of a BFF because He stopped everything he was doing and took care of those around him by showing patience and kindness. Application: How can we love like Jesus? It might seem easier to ignore someone who is in need because it isn t convenient or easy. In fact, sometimes in our busy and rushed lives we can actually miss out on an opportunity to help someone who really could use assistance, just because we aren t paying attention! Next time you are busy and you feel God tugging at your heart to stop what you are doing and be kind to someone, take that challenge and show love to a person in need. A BFF knows that God wants us to be patient in busy times and show kindness to others. How can we love like Jesus? Play It! Slides Game: Speed Beach Ball Toss Overview: Children will think of ways to be kind through tossing a beach ball in small groups. Materials Needed: A few inflated beach balls Instructions: Divide the class evenly into groups and have them sit in circles. Give each group a beach ball. The first person says a way they can be kind to others and then tosses the ball across the circle to another member of their group. The first group to have all the members say something kind they can do wins! Leader: That was a fun way for us to think about how we can be kind to others. There were some great suggestions. Now I challenge you to put those ideas into action! Remember, kindness is love in action and God wants us to love others through being kind. BFF/Gr1-2 /Week 2 3 Saddleback Church 2009
4 Huddle Up! Slides Students get into huddles of 8-12 and have an activity or discussion to do based on the day s lesson. MATERIALS NEEDED: Encouragement cards and markers Take-home papers and pens INTRODUCTIONS: Have everyone say their name and if they have ever seen snow in person (or the desert, or the ocean) REVIEW: Ask children these questions and let them answer as a group or raise their hand. 1) What is one of Steve s favorite foods? a. Pizza with anchovies b. French Fries c. Brussels sprouts 2) The Fair-i-c s & Sad-u-c s asked Jesus, Do you think it is wrong to do work on the Sabbath? 3) True or false: Jesus said, It is right to be kind any day of the week! TRUE 4) There was a man that was crippled in the synagogue, and Jesus decided to. a. Ignore the man; it was Jesus day off and He was tired of being the good guy b. Decided to ask the leaders, Is it wrong to be kind on the Sabbath? c. Heal the man right then, and chose to be kind seven days a week! (B & C are both correct) 5) True or False: To be a BFF all the time, I have to be kind to others 353 ½ days a year. FALSE 6) How can we show love and kindness like Jesus did? To help others even when it doesn t sound like fun! 7) ANY TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME TO BE KIND! 8) I may speak in different languages of men or even angels. But if I do not have love then I am only a noisy bell or ringing cymbal BFF/Gr1-2 /Week 2 4 Saddleback Church 2009
5 DISCUSS: Pass out take-home paper, encouragement cards, pens and markers. Say: Today we talked about taking time out of a busy schedule to share kindness with others. Our church has a great pastors who does a lot to help us know about God s love. Today in our huddle we are going to make cards for our pastors to show our appreciation for who they are to us! Make: Help students to think of encouraging words to write to one of the pastors. Say: How can we take the challenge to be more kind to a specific person this week? Do: Have each student write down who they will be kind to and how they will do it! LIVE OUT LOUD: Read the following key Live It questions aloud and see if any of the children know the answer. If they are stumped on an answer, encourage the leaders to help the kids out. 1) Why did the Religious Leaders not want Jesus to be kind to the crippled man? 2) What did Jesus do in this story? 3) Why should I be kind to others? Live it Out Challenge: Jesus immediately stopped what He was doing and was kind to the crippled man. This week, think about how you can be kind to others. Write down a situation where you were kind to someone. How did it feel to be kind? How did God help you? Bring it back to church next week to receive Kid Cash. PRAYER REQUESTS: Give time for each student to write down their prayer requests on the flap of their take-home papers and turn them in to you. When you have collected them, take them home and pray for them daily. If you know this will be impossible with your schedule, please turn the prayer requests into your Coach or a Staff member.
