You could decorate a plain mug for each synonym and celebrate in the end with hot chocolate or juice in these mugs. If these projects are ones you have done already, brainstorm some new ideas together, or come up with some options for the children to work with. This could have 7 branches that are labeled and hold a number of qualities, or it could be seven items with the synonym name on each along with their descriptive qualities.
I have also suggested a mobile that we write the synonym and qualities on shapes that we eventually put together in a completed hanging work. I have suggested in the past ideas such as a synonym “train” created from small boxes for each synonym filled with all the qualities that each synonym brings to thought (on pieces of paper or something like that). This lesson on Life starts a series of synonyms of everything except Principle. Consider taking a walk during Sunday School if you are so moved, to do such an act together. You get bonus points for this compassionate act if you can think with love and not with judgement about someone as you do this act! There are literally infinite numbers of such acts that you could all come up with. We could do something as simple as pick up some trash from the road or sidewalk or a trail that someone dropped. What if we make it our mission each day to discover at least one new thing about ourselves-maybe one spiritual fact-and put that new thing into action.įor example, maybe we realize that we have all the qualities of compassion from Love and that we want to demonstrate this in an action today. Isn’t that a form of making yourself new? But we can make ourselves new each day! Think together of a time where you were able to turn around a grumpy mood and refresh yourself rather than fall into further funk. If life in matter is where we are building from then there is no way to grow younger. Is being young a worthy goal? All of this hinges on a mortal or material sense of being, of life.
What if we are talking about ourselves? Can we make ourselves “young”? Society obviously tells us that we can take steps to look and feel younger, but they don’t actually make you younger. What’s the difference between “young” and “new”? With matter it’s not much different is it? You can’t take an old thing and make it brand new, though you can restore things to an amazing level. You can discuss this by bringing in a new item, and an item that looks very old or worn. I don’t suppose the little ones will care about this kind of detail, but I love thinking of “new” rather than “young”. 3) WHAT IS LIFE? 4) EVER BEEN STUCK IN THE MUD? 5) EVER LOOKED AT THE WORLD FROM “BENT OVER”?ĬedarS PYCLs, Possible Younger Class Lessons, for the Christian Science Quarterly Bible Lesson:īy Kerry Jenkins, CS, House Springs, (314) 406-0041
