The Bible tells us that many things about us and our lives become new when Jesus comes into our hearts. These six lessons will help us understand how much God wants to guide us and teach us with His Word, the Bible. Each lesson can stand on it's own merit, but I think it is wise to let the children know in the beginning, they are learning a lot of News about knowing Jesus as their best friend. God is powerful and will help them to do what Jesus would do. What's New When We Know Jesus Christ? The Bible Says: God gives us a New Forever Life with Him in heaven! "Come, follow me, "Jesus said. "I will make you fishers of people." Matthew 4:19 Objective: Encourage the children to talk about the love of Jesus.. We are to follow Him and become "fishers of people," for Jesus. He gives a New Forever Life in heaven to those who ask Him to live in their hearts. We can pray for other people and God's Holy Spirit will help them come to know Him.

He gives us a New Direction.   "Teach me to live as you command, because that makes me very happy." Psalm 119:35 Objective: There is only one path to God. That path is Jesus Christ. He will lead us down that path with His Holy Spirit and His Word. We just need to follow Him. We must not let others tell us there is some other way to God.

Then you will not do what your sinful nature wants you to do. "Galatians 5:16 Objective: God can help us to have good attitudes. Teach the children to ask God for help when they find themselves having bad attitudes. New Attitude Link for Children New Attitude Link for Teens   God will help us see with our hearts. He will give us New Vision. "But those who trust in the LORD will receive new strength. They will fly as high as eagles. They will run and not get tired. They will walk and not grow weak." Isaiah 40:31 Objective: God promises to give us the strength we need as we trust in Him. Teach the children to look to the future and see how God may want them to serve Him.

The new has come!" 2Corinthians. 5:17 Objective: Jesus starts making changes in the way we think when He becomes our Lord. Explain we have a will to do what is wrong. God wants to change that into a will to do what is right. New Creature Link for Children New Creature Link for Teens   God forgives His children. He gives us a New Beginning and New Blessings every day.   "His great love is new every morning. Lord, how faithful you are!" Lamentations 3:23 Objective: We do not always do what is right. We are not always on our best behavior. God sent Jesus to show us God's mercy and forgiveness. Teach the children to turn to God and ask forgiveness as they try to do better. God gives us a new beginning each day. New Beginning Link for Children New Beginning Link for Teens    Special Commentary for the TEACHERS OF GOD's WORD! There are many more studies in Gramma Cherbear's curriculum, Animation Trail. I used them in my Kid's Church over a five year period, changing the crafts and music around a bit, and adding different coloring pages and skits of interest. The children I taught never tired of them. To this date the children I instructed with these lessons have not forgotten the classes we shared and Gramma Cherbear gets hugs for her efforts whenever and wherever we meet. What a great, rewarding experience the Lord has given me. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity to teach His Word to the children. Each lesson in Animation Trail Bible Study comes with an easy lesson guide for you to print out. I enlisted the help of my church members as assistance and our youth to help with crafts and music. I have included links to many of the crafts and ideas I used with each lesson. This is a massive 6 year labor of love from and for our Lord's Kingdom. This is a doable bible study for children.
