Hey Kids and Parents! Our Kids’ Church lesson for April 27, is “Christ is Born“.  

Lesson Focus: Jesus, the King of kings, was born in Bethlehem and laid in a manger. His birth was first announced to shepherds rather than to important leaders. Who would have thought that the Creator God would enter the world this way? But Jesus chose to come quietly and humbly to save his people from their sins.

Key Passages: Luke 2:1–20; John 1:1, 1:14, 5:18, 10:30 & 33, 20:28

Memory Verse: 

Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Key Points:

1. Mary and Joseph went to Bethlehem where Jesus the King was born and laid in a manger. 
2. Angels announced His birth to shepherds in the fields rather than to rich or powerful people. 
3. Jesus’ humble birth should surprise us since He is God, the King of kings, who came to save sinners.

Talk About It:

1. What did Mary use for Jesus’ first bed? 
2. To whom did God send his angels to announce Jesus’ birth? 
3. Who is Jesus? He is God, the King of kings, Savior, and Messiah. 
4. What if you heard your friends say Jesus wasn’t God, He was only God’s Son. What could you say?
