This Sunday school study taken from the story of Zacchaeus in the Bible, is great lesson for your 9-11 year olds and their sense of identity and self-esteem.
Bible Story:
Have the several students take turns reading the story of Zacchaeus climbing in the tree to see Jesus, which is Luke 19: 1-10. After the passage has been read discuss what the story was about to make sure that they understood what they read.
Discussion:
Talk about how everyone sins. Remind the students that just because we sin does not mean that we are bad people. Talk about how we can show our disapproval of the sin that people commit without turning our back on the person who has committed the sin.
Art:
Give each student a piece of paper. Have them draw a tree. Then have them draw Zacchaeus in the tree and write “Luke 19: 1-10″ on their paper.
