It’s just saying that often rich people have a more shallow faith because they don’t have to rely on God to take care of them where as the poor have to trust God for their next meal. Hand out the paper and pencils. Ask students to think about the following questions and to respond on their paper with a drawing, doodle, poem, or to create something using their pencil and paper that symbolizes their thoughts on one or more of the questions. • Have you ever been persecuted for your faith?

Invite students to share their responses but allow them to pass if they don’t wish to share. Continued... |
