Have you ever been on a road trip? When we think of road trips, we might think of gas station snacks, singing along to our favorite songs, and taking in the sights - but when the Israelites went on a "road trip" of their own through the wilderness, it was a little less glamorous. Okay, it was a lot less glamorous. In this series, we'll introduce kids to some of God's "rules of the road," from Moses and the ten commandments all the way to what Jesus called the Greatest Commandment - to love God and to love our neighbors as ourselves. Together, we'll discover that we can love God and others by putting God first, worshiping God, loving our families, and loving everyone. BIG IDEAS & BIBLE STORIES We obey God by putting God first. (The First and Second Commandments: Exodus 20:1-6) We obey God by worshiping God. (The Third and Fourth Commandments: Exodus 20:7-11 ) We obey God by loving our families. (The Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Commandments: Exodus 20:12-14) We obey God by loving everyone. (The Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth Commandments: Exodus 20:15-17) MEMORY VERSE: "He answered, 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" Luke 10:27 (NIV)
