“The reason Jesus did this was surely intentional. He set forth the tension between signs which precede his coming contrasted with the suddenness of his coming so that his people would live every moment in light of the promise of his coming.” Kim Riddlebarger

What Our Kids Learned This Sunday
TGKIDS RECAP
The heart of TGKids is to help children understand that the Bible is all about Jesus! Below is the story, scripture, and main teaching points from the TGKids lesson, so that you can talk with your kids about what they learned.
Bible Story: Jacob’s Dream
Scripture: Genesis 29:1-30:24
Bible Truth: We reap what we sow.
Where is Jesus: Genesis 29:21-35
Remember how Jacob dressed up like Esau, lied to his dad, and stole his brother’s blessing? In our story today, Jacob finds out what it feels like to be tricked. Instead of keeping his promise to give his younger daughter, Rachel, to Jacob, Laban dresses his older daughter, Leah, as the bride. Jacob doesn’t discover the switch until after he is already married to Leah. When Jacob discovers the truth, he complains to Laban, who quickly offers to give Rachel to Jacob if he works for him for another seven years. Jacob agrees and begins to work to take Rachel as a second wife. When God sees that Leah is not loved, he blesses her with ten sons. That is where we find our connection to Jesus in today’s story. One of Leah’s boys, named Judah, grew up to become the far-off grandfather of Jesus. His people would be called the tribe of Judah.
February Memory Verse: “The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life.” Psalms 121:7
