Object Lesson | Name Tag

Source (Where I saw it): Original

Supplies: Your Tag

Preparation: None

The object lesson & how I used it...

Main Point: When we are baptized, it shows the world that we made a choice that our heart belongs to God!

Illustration: Show the kids the lanyard.  Show them that it has a picture of you along with the name of the children’s church here and an id as a hero, staff, etc.

Explanation of point: Explain to them that the lanyard shows that you are a children’s worker.  The lanyard is proof that you are a children’s worker.  When we are baptized we are making our tag with God!

Object Lesson | Alka Seltzer Mix!

Source (Where I saw it): Original

Supplies: Glass of Water, Alka seltzer tablet

Preparation - Have a glass filled with water

The object lesson & how I used it...

Main Point: When we are baptized, it shows the change that has happened on the inside.

Illustration: Show the kids the alka selter tablet.  Explain to them how the alka seltzer tablet is a type of medicine that helps calm your stomach.  How it works is you add it to a glass of water and it fizzes and bubbles and becomes one with the water.  There is no way to separate it now!  I can’t get that tablet back, it has been changed forever into something new.

Explanation of point: When we are baptized it represents the change in our life.  When we go in the water and come out it shows everyone that we have a new life with God!

Object Lesson | Separate Water

Source (Where I saw it): Original

Supplies: Water, Food Coloring, Salt

Preparation: None

The object lesson & how I used it...

Main Point: Nothing can separate us from God's love!

Illustration: Show the kids the water and ask them what color it is.  Now add in food coloring to change the color of the water.  Notice the color change.  Now add salt.  Now not only does the water look different, but it tastes different.

Explanation of point: Boys and girls, it would be almost impossible to separate everything I just put in here back into the original water.  In the same way, God’s love can never be separated from us.  He loves us sooooooo much!
