Weekend Recap, Yo Momma Rox!

This weekend we ended the Rockstar series. What an awesome series as we learned it's all about Him and that we are to do all we can to make Him famous. This past weekend we ended strong. In the Theater we didn't celebrate Mother's Day we celebrated "Yo Momma Rox" Day.
Scripture: Ephesians 6:1-3
Homework: The kids homework was to take their rock and give it to their mother and let them know that "they rock". Parents the best way we can teach our kids to obey and honor our parents is by letting them see and hear how we obey and honor our parents as adults. Kids learn by what is caught not taught.
Next Week: We start "How to be Rich" series. Week 1 "U R"

Weekend Recap, ROCKSTAR fans are nuts.

This we talked about how ROCKSTAR fans are nuts. When talking of people in the Bible that were nuts for God Paul quickly comes to mind. Paul did whatever it took to make Him famous. We had a great weekend all around but a huge highlight was watching 4 kids get baptized this past weekend. AWESOME!!!

Bible Story: II Corinthians 6:4-10, we dissected this passage where Paul talks how they went to prison, went hungry, were beat up, called liars, lost everything, etc all for the sake of making Him famous. It is a challenge not just for adults but for kids too. To take our their faith seriously and passionately.

Homework: We talked about how nuts the Apostle Paul was about Jesus. His fanatical approach to following Jesus is a prime example on how we are to live. Discuss some of the obstacles we face in living a fanatical life for Jesus.

Next Week: Yo momma ROX!!!

Weekend Recap: ROCKSTAR II: Encore

This week in the AZ Theater we talked about the Greatest Encore Performance in history, that of Jesus Christ. How He loved us so much that He'd do anything to get more of us in His future. Jesus was the one in the crowd screaming, "Encore, Encore, Encore" for us. Wow, something wrong with that picture. The homework for us parents is for us to take your child to something they love to do or a place they love to be at. A place they won't want to leave. After 5 minutes pretend your leaving and just before your child throws a temper scene open the conversation about how that is what it was like with Jesus. He had us briefly, then we sinned (which separated us from Him), which made Him want us soooo bad, so He died so we may be forgiven, rose again (Encore) so we can be together for ever. Moms, Dads, YOU ROCK!

ROSKSTAR, new FOkids series

This weekend is our Super Bowl. It is what we Christians are all about. As the Apostle Paul says in I Corinthians 15:16-19 if there is no resurrection then we are to be pited more than all men. Yet there is a resurecction of Christ and of all those who believe in Him. Thus our new series for FOkids is ROCKSTAR, making Him famous! This is another great series out of the awesome church in North Carolina, Pine Ridge Church, http://www.pineridgechurch.com/ Thanks Tadd for knocking it out of the park with this series idea. The ROCKSTAR series is about teaching kids that Jesus is the ultimate ROCKSTAR and that our job is to make Him famous. We will be learning that 1) Jesus is the ultimate ROCKSTAR. 2) Jesus is still ROCKIN out. 3) ROCKSTARS have fans. 4) ROCKSTAR fans are nuts for Him.
