Glad Heart Series for Ages 1-2 Quarter 4: Jesus Is Coming Back

$25.00

The Glad Heart Series for ages 1-2 employs visual and tactile materials and songs set to familiar tunes to capture the attention of young children and teach them God’s Word.  The same material is presented each week for 13 weeks, as very young children need repetition and review to master new vocabulary words and ideas.  Craft templates and instructions are provided for creating a unique craft each week, which reinforces the objectives of the lesson.

 

In Quarter 4: Jesus is Coming Back children will learn that Jesus is returning to the earth at the sound of a trumpet, on a cloud, and every eye will see Him.  They will discover Jesus the King, riding triumphantly on a white horse, returning for them!  The children will get excited for His return as they learn about and “experience” each of the rewards Jesus has promised in Revelation chapters 2 and 3 to those who overcome: eating from the tree of life, the crown of life, hidden manna, a white stone with a new name, ruling with Jesus over the nations, clothed in white garments, made a pillar in His temple, His name on their foreheads, and sitting with Jesus on His throne.  They will learn about the New Jerusalem and gain hope for the day when every tear is wiped away.  The lesson ends with the children learning to pray, “Come, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:20).
