What did we study? Acts 4:32-5:11
Family Challenge for ParentsAnanias and Sapphira were two people who left a legacy of being dishonest to God. Today, your kids studied the importance of standing firm and being honest at all times. If you are unfamiliar with this Bible lesson, watch the short story of Ananias and Sapphira at aachur.ch/ansap or read about it in Acts 4:32-5:11.
Even though their story has a harsh ending, we must remember why God put this lesson in the Bible — it teaches us the importance of being honest.
Take the Family Challenge
How often are your children honest, respectful, and kind? Place two jars on your counter. When your children tell the truth, are respectful, or kind, add an object to the first jar (gummie, penny, rock, or marble). If they tell a lie, are disrespectful, or unkind, add an object to the second jar. See what you end up with at the end of the week.
