This Sunday our preteens will grapple with, "Is God a Party Pooper?" God is not a party pooper! And yet it's sad, but true, that some people think God needs to stay locked up in a church building and never get involved in the fun parts of their lives. We are daring you to be different and to help your children be different. Quit thinking that God doesn't want us to have fun" :) Together as a family read Psalm 16:8-11 and make it a prayer that you pray together.

This Sunday the children will learn that Christmas is about God choosing to be with us. Emmanuel! They will learn there are several names for Jesus. Savior, Redeemer, Messiah and Emmanuel. Emanuel means "God with us". They will also learn that people need Jesus because, people make mistakes. Without Jesus, people would need to be perfect to be with God. Together as a family talk about how this Christmas, how will you choose to follow Jesus?

Why were the Shepherd's chosen to be the messengers of God's good news? There were more sophisticated people to whom God could have sent the angels! But these shepherds believed. They believed so much that they obeyed--fully and immediately. They didn't wait--they ran! Then with hearts full of wonder, they told everyone they saw about the wonderful promised baby. Help the openhearted little ones you love understand that God loves and values them as much as He did the shepherds and that He delights in their celebration of the advent of His Son!
