The Word of God is living and active. And when we share Scripture accurately and with love, it changes children\u2019s lives. Sometimes it can be tempting to focus more on entertaining children through games or activities, but if we help them discover the Bible, that is when a Sunday School lesson becomes great! <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Here are some tips to help prepare your next Sunday School Bible teaching.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read your passage in a paraphrase like The Message. This can help you see a familiar passage with fresh eyes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After reading, reference an easy-to-understand Sunday School curriculum that will help you better understand a passage\u2019s background and context.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pray through your passage. As you read, ask God to show you key ideas\/applications to share with your class.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr \/>\n<div style=\"position: relative; height: 0; padding-bottom: 56.25%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rHgDSC6ODOE?ecver=2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><b>Tell the Story<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s easy to fall into the trap of treating the Bible like a list of do\u2019s and don\u2019ts. But in reality the Bible is the amazing story of God and His great love for us. At the center of this story is the incredible life and sacrifice of Jesus. So, instead of teaching our kids a list of things to do, we should focus on sharing with them the greatest story in all of history!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try these tips when preparing your next Sunday School Bible story.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After reading your passage, try to summarize what you\u2019ve read in no more than 1-2 sentences.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to place yourself in the passage. What did it look like, sound like, smell like? Then, retell the story to your Sunday School class, including these details.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Integrate strong visuals into your message like slideshows of Kids Bible Videos. These digital resources can go a long way in bringing your Sunday School lessons to life!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sharefaith.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21847 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sharefaith.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sunday School Lessons Q&amp;A\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-80x45.jpg 80w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-360x203.jpg 360w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blogrouting.sharefaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/how-to-sunday-school-QA-1-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><b>Start a Discussion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Jesus taught his disciples, he asked questions and then listened to their answers. This Question and Answer format is one of the best ways to involve your kids the lesson, and help them learn. The moment you give kids a voice in your class, they become invested. This investment is what transforms a class from spectators to participants!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some simple tips for getting a classroom discussion going:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Show illustrations from your Sunday School lesson, then let your class retell the story as each picture is shown.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep questions open-ended. For example \u201cHow would that feel?\u201d or \u201cWhen is a time that you\u2026?\u201d Avoid questions that can be answered with a simple yes\/no.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Project\/display your questions on a screen.

Teach, tell the story, have a discussion, but then let your class interact with the lesson. You can do this through lesson-related games, activities, coloring pages, crossword puzzles and more!
