This Sunday we continue to learn about the days following Christ's resurrection. The videos above, one from Church School parent Krista Jarvis and another called
The Seriously Surprising Story, explain what happens when Jesus encounters two of his disciples along the Road to Emmaus.
Children's Chapel Leader Brett Rutledge offers some talking points for families to discuss the story of The Road to Emmaus:
- Is it possible to solve a puzzle if you don't have the picture on the box?
- What three things did the disciples need to understand they were with the resurrected Jesus?
- Stories about Jesus (That's what they talked about when Jesus first joined them.)
- Other stories from the Bible (That's what Jesus talked with them about - how those stories fit with the stories about Jesus.)
- The importance of praying together
- When we do all three things, we come closer to understanding and learning about the resurrected Jesus.
