19 colourful slides illustrate this teaching.
Here are a few sample slides.
First we ask the question: “What do you think of when Christmas is mentioned?”
Some slides follow to illustrate the many things we might think of when the word Christmas is mentioned: a decorated tree, snowman, etc.
This slide is probably what most kids are thinking of!
And this one makes the link between earthly presents and the spiritual aspect of giving that comes through the Christmas Bible narrative.
Various people in the Bible record of the first Christmas are illustrated on other slides. Here are just two.
There are others illustrated, who also gave on that first Christmas- the inn keeper, the angels, the shepherds and the wise men.
Then we think about what God himself has given.
The gift of God’s Son is explained, as well and his death to pay for our punishment.
Finally a challenge is given: What might we give to God – our whole lives in a commitment to follow him.
