Proclamation
The Bible is the story of God's saving actions.
Explanation
1. We grow closer to one another through the sharing of stories
2. The Bibe is a collection of the stores in which God is revealed
3. Nature (God's creation), Church Tradition (guided through the Holy Spirit), and the Bible (inspired by God) together are the source of God's revelation, or communication about Himself.
4. God still speaks to us today through the different forms of storytelling found in the Bible.
Connection
The Bible tells the story of God's presence and His saving actions. After Adam and Eve sinned, their sin separated them from God. Our sins also create a barrier between us and God. Because of His great love for us, God promised a Savior (Jesus) who would take away our sins and reunite us again with Him. The Bible is full of stories that teach us about God's plan of Salvation.
Application
We will discuss the story of Adam and Eve and the story of Naomi and Ruth. The students will share favorite Bible stories and come to realize that God's saving actions is a theme that runs through each of the stories.
Encounter
We will talk about the meaning of the Bible verse John 3:16. During this class, the students learned the history of the Bile, including that it began as an oral history and pieces of it were written on scrolls. Each student will create his to her own scroll and write a Bible verse on it (John 3:16).
Celebration
We will participate in prayerful thanksgiving for the gifts go the Bible. We will assign and read the "Prayer of the Holy Spirit" in our book.
