HOW TO USE THE CHILDREN'S LESSONS The Children's Lessons consist of the lesson plans for the teacher's use only (although the lesson portion may be copied and given to the students) and a coloring book (see Appendix 3). The coloring book contains activities to reinforce the lesson, as well as pictures related to the lesson topic. The picture and poster may be placed in the classroom and halls after the children have colored them. LESSON I - A FRIEND LOVES AT ALL TIMES Lesson Text: Luke 10:30-35 (The Story of the Good Samaritan) Memory Verse: "A friend loveth at all times" (Proverbs 17:17a). Lesson Aim: To teach that true friends help those who are in trouble, whether they know them or not. Lesson Activity: Select children to role-play the parts of the man who was robbed, the priest, the Levite, the Samaritan, and the innkeeper. One child might even act as the Samaritan's donkey. Lesson Song: "Beloved, Let Us Love One Another" Our Lesson Says A Jewish man traveled from Jerusalem to Jericho along the dangerous Jericho Road. As he was going, some thieves grabbed him, ripped off his good clothes, and beat him. They then ran away with his clothes, leaving him half-naked and almost dead in the road. A short time later, a priest passed that way. When he saw the man, he crossed to the other side of the road and passed by him. A Levite, one of the priests' helpers, also came by. He walked over to the man, looked at him, and then went on his way. Last came a Samaritan. The Jews did not like the Samaritans. But this Samaritan had pity on the hurt man. He went to him, put healing oil and wine on his cuts, and bandaged them up. Then he helped the man onto his own donkey and took him to an inn. He spent the night caring for the man. The next day the Samaritan had to leave. He paid the innkeeper in advance for keeping the sick man. He promised that if caring for the man cost more money than what he was leaving, he would pay the rest when he returned.
LESSON 2 - A FRIEND PROTECTS YOU Lesson Texts: I Samuel 18:1-4; 19:1-7; 20:1-42 (The <strong>Friend</strong>ship of Jonathan and David) (The teacher could use a flannelgraph board or puppets to tell this familiar story. Check with your local Christian bookstore for helpful materials.) Memory Verse: "The Lord is my strength and my shield" (Psalm 28:7a). Lesson Aim: To show that a true friend speaks well of his friend and protects him, even when it means that he himself might be disliked or hurt. Lesson Activity: Have the children make statements about who their best friend is and why or have them draw a picture of a scene that shows friendship. Lesson Song: "The Lord Is My Strength and Shield" Our Lesson Says David and Jonathan were best friends. They became friends when Jonathan's father, King Saul, brought David to work for him after he killed the giant Goliath. In the king's court, David played his harp to help the king relax from the bad headaches he often had. Jonathan loved David so much that he gave him his royal robes, ring, bow, belt, and sword. They agreed to be friends forever. But when David became famous for killing thousands of King Saul's enemies, the Philistines, the king became jealous. King Saul made a plan to kill David. He told Jonathan about his plan. He said that if the people made David king, then Jonathan would not get a chance to be king. But Jonathan did not worry about this. He believed what the prophet Samuel had said, that David would one day be king. Jonathan reminded his father that David had done him no wrong. Instead David had really helped the king by killing his enemies. King Saul was sorry for his evil plans. But later he once again planned to kill David. Jonathan stood up for his friend a second time. But his father threw a spear at him. Then Jonathan knew that King Saul really meant to kill David. Jonathan went out into the field. He and David had worked out a code. If Jonathan shot an arrow and told his servant that the arrow went beyond him, then David must run away, for the king meant to kill him. If Jonathan told the servant that the arrow was near him, then David could come to the palace again. Jonathan shot the arrow beyond the servant. Then he told him to go home. David came out of his hiding place. He fell down at Jonathan's feet and cried. Jonathan cried, too. After promising again to be Jonathan's friend forever, David left the country.
