We have created an experience for you and your children called The Table. As Bible stories come to life you will have the opportunity to interact with your children through engaging questions. So come to The Table with us and see all that God has for you and your family!
STEP 1: Pray for your children.
Take a moment to pray for your children. You can do this alone or read it with them.
Dear Gracious Father, You are a God who loves and cares about us. I’m thankful you made me a mom and gave me {Insert child’s name}. I pray you would open their eyes to see your truth and gain wisdom from your Word. Help them to trust you and want to know more about you. Set their feet on a solid foundation and protect them and guide them as they grow. Be their strength and refuge amid the storms. Make them strong and courageous yet find rest and shelter beneath your wings. May they always understand that nothing can separate them from your love. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray. Amen
STEP 2: Watch the video.
Once dinner is ready, find a seat at the table and place your device where everyone can see it to watch the video.
STEP 3: Have a conversation.
Discuss the questions asked in the video. Allow your children to answer the questions first before giving your input.
Have you ever been in trouble? Have you ever made a mistake? Let’s talk about what God says about sin. The good news is, you are not in trouble!
Romans 3:23 ESV
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Ephesians 2:4-5 ESV
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved.

What can we do to make Jesus love us? Can we make him love us more or less by our actions?
Romans 5:6-8 ESV
For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

What do I do with bad thoughts? Do our thoughts even matter? Watch as a fun science experiment shows the importance of our thoughts.
Philippians 4:8 ESV
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Psalm 139:13-15 ESV
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

What is the most important thing in your life? Can you love things and love God?
Matthew 7:24 ESV
“Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on the rock. The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn’t collapse, because its foundation was on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of Mine and doesn’t act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. The rain fell, the rivers rose, the winds blew and pounded that house, and it collapsed. And its collapse was great!”
