We can be a witness of Christ like the Shepherds

  1. Do the fun object lesson as described on the lesson plan page with a treat and a doll. Explain to your child what it means to be a witness. Color the coloring page as you read or listen to Matthew 2:1-12.
  2. Watch this video and tell your family to watch for the shepherds. Then create a shoe box scene with the shepherds and sheep. You can add the star and angel if you want. Let you child reenact the shepherds traveling to see Baby Jesus.
  3. Learn the Nativity Song as a family. Use the printable nativity pieces as stick puppets to hold up when you sing about them. Sing this song every night before bed this week.

Summary of this week’s Go & Do Family Activity:

Read Matthew 2:13-23 and discuss why personal revelation is important in our lives. Make some cookies and as a family decide who to deliver them to. Have a discussion about how the natural man would want to keep the cookies and eat all of them but we can practice putting off the natural man and receive personal revelation.

Summary of this week’s Hands-On Learning Activity:

As you read Matthew 2:1-12 have everyone think about what gifts they can give Jesus. Make a foldable box for each person and let them write down 3-5 ideas and put it in their box. Then mix up the boxes and read all the gifts aloud.

These are just two of the six fun, creative, and engaging activities for this week’s Come Follow Me FHE lesson. See your lesson plan page and materials for more activities and QR codes to videos and songs that go along with what we are learning about this week!

“Be Strong and of a Good Courage”

Most of the Israelites heading into the Promised Land had been born in the wilderness. Few remembered the treacherous journey across the bottom of the Red Sea, yet all would experience the miracle again as they crossed the Jordan River on dry ground. This time, however, it was not a crowd of fleeing former slaves who worshipped golden calves. It was the camp of Israel, a covenant-making people who had proven their faithfulness to the Lord.

“Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord”

Moses taught that faith is best nurtured through the natural rhythms of family life rather than through formal lessons alone. He commanded parents: “Thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way” (Deuteronomy 6:7). Integrating gospel conversations into daily activities helps our children guard against “forgetting the Lord” during times of ease and prosperity.

“Rebel Not Ye against the Lord, Neither Fear”

Moses did not have an easy time being the Israelite’s prophet. From constant squabbles amongst the people to outright apostasy against the Lord, there was plenty of drama he had to deal with. As a prophet, Moses knew what the Israelites could be if they stayed faithful. He told Joshua it would be less of a struggle if everyone could see what the Lord had shown him: “would God that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!” (Numbers 11:29).
