KidsPoint Devotional: (July Week 4) 

BLOOM (Birth-Kindergarten)
This month in Bloom, we are talking about how God shows us how to love others the same way that Jesus does! Our memory verse for the month of July is “Be kind and loving to each other” Ephesians 4:32, NCV.

This past Sunday (July 27th), we read about the challenge that Jesus gave to His disciples and to all of us, The Great Commission. We talked about the good news of Jesus and that we are called to share that with everyone around us, just like the disciples did.

We encourage you to read Matthew 28:16-20 with your kids and discuss the following questions.
  • What did Jesus ask us to do?
  • Why do you think Jesus wants us to tell everyone about Him?
  • What can you tell others about Jesus?

We encourage you to pray with your child after devotion.
 
UPSTREET (1st-5th Grade)
This month in UpStreet, we are talking about living like Jesus. Our memory verse for this month is “Our God is a God who strengthens and encourages you. May he give you the same attitude toward one another that Christ Jesus had.” Romans 15:5, NIrV

This past Sunday (July 27th), we read about the command that Jesus gives to all of us as His followers, The Great Commission. We talked about how we have a responsibility to share the good news of Jesus with others. We discussed that we can do that through our words AND our actions by using the different gifts that God has given us.

We encourage you to read Matthew 28:16-20 with your kids and discuss the following questions. 
  • Why should we tell others about Jesus?
  • What is something that you can tell others about Jesus?
  • How can you teach others about Jesus without using your words?

We encourage you to pray with your child after devotion.

A note from the KidsPoint team.

Hello Parents!

We are so excited for all that God has in store for us this year, not only in KidsPoint but as a whole at BridgePoint. We believe that our kids are vital to the mission of our church, as well as the future of our communities. As part of our vision for this year, we want to partner with you, parents, to help incorporate more biblical practices in the daily life of our kids. We want to be intentional in teaching our kids how to take real ownership of their relationship with God and we believe that begins in your home.

Starting this year, KidsPoint is sending out weekly devotions and discussion questions for you and your kids. These devotions will be short but they will coincide with what your child is currently learning in KidsPoint. We encourage you to take some time throughout the week to sit down with your kids and discuss what God is teaching them and how they can apply it to their everyday life. This could be at the dinner table, in the car on the way to a sports game/practice, or even before bed. Our hope is that these devotions will assist you in helping foster your child’s relationship with God every day, as well as challenge them to dig deeper into their faith and in God’s word.

We look forward to all God has in store for you and your kids as well as our entire church family!

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Sincerely,

The KidsPoint Team
