I find that using Sunday school coloring pages and crafts even with 9-11 year olds is a way to engage them in the Sunday school lesson and getting them to understand it. The lesson on Sodom and Gomorrah is important in getting them to understand the difference between the sin and the sinner and to see how God wants us to do what is right.
Discussion:
Ask the students how they think God feels when they sin.
Bible Story:
Read the story of Sodom and Gomorrah from Genesis 19: 23-29. You can have the students take turns reading the story out loud.
Craft:
Create a picture.
Need:
Paper
Crayons or Markers
Have the students draw a picture of a flame. Then have them write Sodom and Gomorrah. Their pictures will serve as reminders to do what is right.
Discussion:
Discuss the difference between hating the sins versus hating the sinner. Emphasize that you can hate the sin but still love the sinner.
Discussion:
Ask the students if it is easy to keep from sinning in today’s culture. Talk about ways that we can help each other do the right things in a world that is hard to keep from sinning in.
