Object Lesson | Object To Remember

Source (Where I saw it): Original

Supplies: An object that has sentimental value, Communion supplies.

Preparation: None

The object lesson & how I used it...

Main Point: Communion is a reminder of what Jesus did for us!

Illustration: Show the kids the object.  Explain to them how and why this object is important to you.  Ask the the kids if they have an object that means something to them.  Maybe it reminds of them of a friend or parent.  Maybe it reminds them of a something that happened.  We all have reminders.

Explanation of point: That is exactly what communion is all about!  When we take communion we are remembering what Jesus did for us.  Show the boys and girls the communion pieces and explain that these little objects really have no value.  It is what we are remembering when we take communion in church.  We are remembering that Jesus loves us and died for us!  He wants us to live a great life and go to heaven, but we have to make that choice.
