With children
An idea for presenting the story to children
Over these eight weeks we are going to encounter two key witnesses to the gospel: Peter and Paul.
This week, Paul sends us a postcard from Damascus where his life has been turned upside down.
If you have introduced Peter in previous weeks, set the scene that this is Paul, a very different character. You might read this story with a different intonation from the previous two.
Talk about
After reading the Bible story to your group, use these discussion points.
- Talk with the children about changes they have faced. This might be in school, family life, moving house. Be sensitive to those who may have struggled.
- Talk about what the changes meant to them. How do they cope with change?
