“Journey off the Map–Unknown to Us, Known to Him”<br />
will be our theme this summer. We will set out on a<br />
journey to uncharted territory where kids will encounter<br />
the unexpected waiting around every bend. On this<br />
expedition of a lifetime, kids will need to stick close to<br />
their guides in order to survive. They will discover that<br />
Jesus is the Ultimate Guide on a journey uncharted by<br />
them, but known by Him.<br />
Day 1 • Know Your Guide: Jesus birth was announced<br />
and angels declared that He is the Messiah. Jesus spent<br />
time teaching and healing people. He died for our sins,<br />
was buried, and on the third day He arose. Jesus is our<br />
Ultimate Guide.<br />
Day 2 • Follow Your Guide: Daniel and his friends were<br />
among the Jewish captives chosen to serve in King<br />
Nebuchadnezzar’s palace. The food provided for the<br />
friends broke the laws God had given the Jewish<br />
people. Instead of breaking<br />
God’s laws, Daniel chose to follow his Guide<br />
and requested permission to be given vegetables and<br />
water instead.<br />

Day 3 • Trust Your Guide: Shadrach, Meshach, and<br />
Abednego refused to bow and worship the statue that<br />
Nebuchadnezzar had built. As a result the three friends<br />
were thrown into a fiery furnace. They trusted God<br />
whether He chose to save them or allow them to perish.<br />
God protected the three friends in the fire and they<br />
emerged unharmed.<br />
Day 4 • Stay on Track: Daniel consistently did what was<br />
right and kept his focus on God. Even when the king<br />
signed an edict that made it illegal to pray to anyone by<br />
the king, Daniel continued to pray openly to God. Daniel<br />
was thrown into the lions’ den for refusing to pray to the<br />
king. God closed the lions’ mouths and rescued Daniel<br />
from the lions.<br />
Day 5 • Keep Watching: Daniel received a vision of<br />
things to come. Jesus told His disciples about things to<br />
come. God tells believers to keep watching for Jesus’<br />
return and to obey His Word.<br />
Children who were 3 years old by 9/1/14 through<br />
completion of 5th grade will be welcomed to be a part<br />
of this exciting week at <strong>Brandon</strong> Baptist Church.<br />
