Jesus Will Return

Matthew 24:44; John 14:1–3; Acts 1:9–11; Revelation 1:7; 1 Thessalonians 4:16

Family Discussion Questions

  • Who knows when Jesus will return?
  • What do we need to do to be ready for Jesus to return?
  • When will we know Jesus has returned?
  • Where do people look to find a timeline for Jesus’ return? Will this place give them an answer?
  • Why is Jesus going to return?
  • How does this change how you look at sharing the gospel with other people?

Family Activities

  • Check out a calendar together. Discuss how we can make plans but Jesus doesn’t work on our timeline.
  • “Plan for a Trip” – Pretend to plan for a trip [unless you have one coming up and then it is more fun to plan for the real trip]. What do you need to do before you leave? What do you need to take with you? What about planning for Jesus’ return. What do you need to do? Do you need to pack?

Announcements

Thanks to Disney many of you probably know that Ohana is Hawaiian for family but did you know that in its fullest sense, Ohana is a group of people bound by love and compassion for one another – it includes intentional, adopted family and close friends. This year at our Ohana Island VBS, we are going to be exploring how God created us for community with Him and with one another.

Ohana Island will run July 18-22 from 6:15-8:45PM. Evenings on Ohana Island will begin with our worship rally where we will dig into biblical truth and worship the God who designed us all. The night will continue with games, science, snacks, small group time, and missions. Each night will conclude with a short time of worship as we gather together for dismissal.

Registration is open so go ahead and start to share on social media, invite friends, and register your own children [www.cloughpike.com/ohana]!

Mark your calendars and come join us as we discover how we are created for community!

Join us for fun and fellowship as we get in the island spirit to kick off VBS week. The church will provide the meat. Will you help us fill in the sides and dessert? Sign up to help us know what is coming by visiting our sign up page here.

It’s that time of year again – This I Believe is back! We will be digging deep and taking a look at the most common questions about our faith. Join us each Wednesday in the Children’s Worship space for some serious learning and some serious fun.
