In January, kids will be embarking on a journey to discover what the Bible says about who we are as people. This is a timely study with all that the world is throwing at our children when it comes to identity. It seems that these days anyone can claim to be anyone or anything they want. The world is doing what it’s been doing since the very beginning and exchanging truth for lies. Instead of focusing on all of the lies out there, in this study we will focus on the truth of the Bible, the truth of God’s character, and the truth of the Bible. 

There is much confusion today about what it means to be a person made in the image of God. The world is redefining everything, but the truth of God and His Word never changes. In this study we’ll look at some of the big issues of our day surrounding men and women, but instead of listening to what the world is saying, we’ll keep our focus on God and what He is saying. These lessons will lay a foundation for continuing conversations between parents (and teachers) and children as they see the huge divide between the world’s message and God’s message.

  The goals of this series are:

1. for children to see the inherent value in all people.

2. for children to know what it means to be an image bearer of God.

3. for children to understand that God never makes mistakes and it is good that God made us male and female.

4. for children to be reminded that everything in the world was destroyed by the fall.

5. for children to see the hope of the gospel.

6. for children to learn that our true identity is found in Christ and not in trying to figure out who we are.
