WAIT FOR IT: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON ADVENT & CHRISTMAS
WEEK 3 BIG IDEA:  WAIT AND SEE, GOD WILL DO IMPOSSIBLE THINGS.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

Who doesn’t love a board game? Waiting for the the game to unfold is a part of the fun, but it can be frustrating if kids don’t know why they are playing or what they need to be a part of it. In, Wait For It, kids will learn how to watch for and put their hope in Jesus. Everyone will meet John, Mary, Simeon and Anna— people who waited for a Savior to change their lives. Kids will learn that everyone needs a Savior, that the Savior will change everything, that God will do impossible things, and that Jesus is the one they’ve been waiting for!

Let's be completely honest for a sec . . . how many times have you dismissed a kid's question, idea, or remark? All grown-ups have done it because, let's face it, some of them seem dumb! Take a second to check out this RADICAL IDEA of creative collaboration between adults and kids presented by a 17-year-old. It will remind you to recognize and validate the voices of the kids you serve. . . no matter how young they are!
