| EXPLORE THE BIBLE: (10–15 minutes) Ask students to open their Bibles to Luke 6:37-45. Ask them to follow along as you or one of the students reads the scripture. Then ask students to just listen—listen for something that jumps out at them, maybe something they didn’t notice before—as you read the scripture again. After you are done, ask: • What stood out? Why? • What are some things that Jesus is trying to tell us? • Does this make sense? • Is this important for our everyday lives? Divide into three groups. Ask group one to act out verses 39-40, group two verses 41-42, and group three verses 43-45. If you have a larger class, more than one group can act out the same passage.
