Q&A
- Who do we have in our story today? (A man)
- The man finds something in a field — what is it? (A treasure)
- What does the man do with the treasure after he finds it? (He buries it again, so no one else can find it.)
- What does the man do in order to keep the treasure? (He sells everything he has, so he can buy the field where the treasure is buried so that he can keep the treasure.)
Loving Jesus and being loved by Jesus is like that treasure — it's more important and more precious than everything else we could have (more important than all of our toys, more important than having a house or a car, and even more important than having family and friends).
Jesus' Upside Down Kingdom is a treasure!
Memory Lines
This is meant to be a shout-back-and-forth between the leader and the children
that helps the children understand our VBS kingdom theme this year:
Who is our King? — Jesus!
Where is His Kingdom? — Inside us!
What does our King want us to do? — Love God and love others!
Craft
Snack
Today's snack is round crackers and cheese! ( + water)
Why? — Because it reminds us a little bit of what gold looks like, just like in a
treasure box; just like the treasure in our story today!
