28th January Jacob and Esau
Forgiving someone can be very difficult at times, especially when what they have done has really hurt you. In the bible story today, you will see how Jacob deceived his father and took Esau’s inheritance but when Jacob was truly sorry Esau forgave him. Perhaps when someone hurts you, you can think back to the story and you can start to forgive them.
Take a look at the video from Superbook:

January 17th Abraham
Sometimes we have some difficult things to face in life but Abraham had probably the worst thing you can imagine to face when God asked him to sacrifice Isaac. There is a good ending to the story which I am sure many of you already know. Take a look at the Superbook video from You tube (It is not scary like last week).
Here as a few activities for you to try:
Try singing along and doing the actions to the Father Abraham song:

As we begin the new year let us look at the beginning of the bible with creation. There are 2 videos available on you tube. The first is from the Beginners Bible which I would recommend for most children
The Creation – The Beginner’s Bible – YouTube
The second is from Superbook which focuses on the Fall and is only suitable for older children as it is a bit scary
Superbook – In The Beginning – Season 1 Episode 1 – Full Episode (Official HD Version) – YouTube.
