2 Session Title Read A Radical the Word Beginning Bible Passage Nehemiah Bible Passage 8:1-12 Genesis 1:1 2:3 Level of Biblical Learning Level of Biblical The Learning Bible is for (Creation) people of all languages, Creation can ethnicities, be credited and to cultures. God only. Bible Truth God wants is the Creator. people to read His Word. Life Application Life God created Application everything, and I can read praise God s Him. Word daily. Memory Verse Those He never who grows hear faint the word of weary; God and there keep is no it are limit to blessed! His understanding. Luke Isaiah 11:28 40:28 Almost all Bible translations begin with these words: In the beginning God... The word translated formless is the Hebrew tohu and means formlessness, confusion, unreality, emptiness. The word has been translated as chaos, confusion, desolation, meaningless, or futile things. God didn t just create the world. He gave a cosmic object lesson of what He can do. On the surface, just reading the words of Genesis 1 is like surviving a hurricane and saying, It was windy. For just a moment, meditate on the enormity of what happened. Hold a blank sheet of paper in your hand. Now make something out of it. The possibilities could have me staring into space for hours. And, to think, I started with something; God began with nothing. God spoke and all the details came instantly to completion. At His command there were colors, textures, circulatory systems, brain functions, and planet rotations that are so set and predictable that their locations in the sky have served as GPS devices long before computers. Week of march 7, 2010 Now consider the orderliness of God s well-constructed plan. Creation was built from the first rays of light to land foundations, to a full-blown ecosystem. For each living element of creation, God designed and directed its purpose. Every theory that counters the biblical account of creation is just that theory that cannot be proven by any scientific method. On the seventh day God rested. The root of the word shabbat is a cease and desist type rest. God s plan includes a day to cease and desist from the average, ordinary daily upkeep that has become our lives routines. God blessed and declared this day as set apart from the others. It is God s invitation to stop what you re doing and concentrate on Him. The preteens you teach may be coming from a variety of experiences. You have the opportunity to focus on the awesomeness of God and the truth in His Word. Lead the preteens you teach to praise God the Creator and celebrate His wonderful creation. God was not surprised by any of it. And each and every thing was declared Good! by the One who created it. 6 bible teaching experience for preteens

RCreation by the Numbers. Group preteens into seven groups. Each group will be assigned one day of creation. If your class is small, create groups with equal numbers of preteens and give each group two or three creation days for their assignments. Instruct groups to examine Genesis 1:1 2:3 and identify the item(s) God created on the day(s) their group was assigned. When you call for reports, challenge preteens to explain why the universe could not function properly without the existence of each creation. xx Day 1: Light necessary for heat and growth xx Day 2: Sky/atmosphere necessary for plants and animals to breathe xx Day 3: Land/seas/plants necessary for food and shelter xx Day 4: Sun/moon/stars necessary to regulate days and seasons xx Day 5: Birds/fish necessary for food, beauty, and plant growth (birds scatter and replant seeds) xx Day 6: Animals/people necessary for food, clothing, protection (animals); necessary for God to carry out His plan (people) xx Day 7: Rest necessary for all humans and animals Ask preteens to examine the chapter and find a recurring phrase that describes God s view of His creation.

Cue him to say the first word of Isaiah 40:28 as he grasps the end of the string and tosses the ball across the circle to a classmate to create the first strand of a spider web. The second preteen will say the next word, grasp the string, and toss it to another preteen. Continue with the remaining words of Isaiah 40:28. Challenge the group to untangle the web by repeating the process in reverse. 4 Use the learner guide and pray. R Hop to It! (learner guide). Lead preteens to complete the activity.

Knot the string firmly to finish the web. Make a hanging loop with another short piece of string. Tuck the memory verse card into the web. (Optional: glue a toy spider to one twig.) Wrap Up.
