Talk It Over
Jesus Forgives and Heals a Man Who Could Not Walk
Hey parents! Use these questions as a guide to talk over this week’s Bible story called Jesus Forgives and Heals a Man Who Could Not Walk with your child after they’ve watched this week’s Church at Home elementary video. And remember the Big Idea: Jesus’ power helps my friends.
- What was your favorite part of the video we just watched? Do you have any questions about what you saw?
- What did the man’s friends do to help him? They carried him to where Jesus was. When it was too crowded to get into the house, they dug a hole in the roof and lowered the man down to Jesus.
- What did Jesus do? He healed the man, and he forgave his sins.
- What did the people believe after seeing this miracle? That Jesus was God’s son! They believed God sent Jesus with the authority to forgive sins and to help hurting people.
- This story shows us how friends can help each other and bring each other closer to Jesus. What are some ways you can help your friends get closer to Jesus, even if you can’t actually see Jesus? Tell them about Jesus. Bring them to church. Pray for them.
- This might be a good time to talk with your child about times when God doesn’t heal us or someone we love or doesn’t answer our prayers. Give them a chance to talk about these feelings. Remind them that God always hears our prayers, even though he doesn’t always answer them the way we want him to. Everything will be healed and good in Heaven.
