Family It!

Family It!

Supplies: Bible, computer or smart phone to watch the youtube video “Mama Bear Wrestles Tree To Rescue Cub”.

SHARE
How many times a day do your parents tell you to “be careful”?  Do you listen to them?  Why should we listen to people when they try to warn us?  What could happen if we do not listen to the warning?

READ
Read I Corinthians 10:11-12 with your family.  Remember that this is a warning from Paul to the Christians in the church in the city of Corinth.

WATCH THE CLIP
What was the mother bear doing in the clip?  Why did the baby bear need the mom’s help?  What could have happened if the mother bear didn’t step in a help?

DISCUSS
1)  In the verses we read, Paul is giving a very important warning for us to be careful in our relationship with Jesus. Jesus cares for us in big ways.  What are some ways that Jesus has cared for your family?
2)  In the verses we read, Paul tells us to be careful so that we do not fall.  In your opinion, what does it mean to “fall” in our relationship with Jesus?
3)  Why would it be bad to “fall” in our relationship with Jesus?
4)  How is Paul kind of like the mother bear?  In what way is God like the mother bear?

PRAY
Jesus, thank you for these verses and warning.  Teach us to obey you when you call.  Teach us to quickly obey everyone who tries to keep us from danger.  Amen.
