FAMILY TALKING POINTS
CHRIST CONNECTION
This is the big idea of how this week’s Bible story points to Jesus.
- Babies & Toddlers: David would be the king, and he still helped Saul. Jesus is the King, and He still helps us. Jesus came to earth, died on the cross, and rose again to save us from our sin.
- Younger Preschool: David knew he would be a king one day, and he still helped Saul. Jesus, the most special King, came to earth to help us by dying on the cross and coming back to life.
- Older Preschool: David knew God chose him to be the next king, but he still served King Saul. Jesus, the King of everything, came into the world as a servant. He gave His life and rose again so sinners can have forgiveness and be happy forever.
- Kids: Even though David knew he would be king one day, he served King Saul faithfully. Even though Jesus is God, He humbled Himself and took the form of a servant. He served His disciples by washing their feet, and He served His people by dying on a cross for their sin and rising again.
