Obeying Your Parents

Obeying your Parents

Play:  Play a game of “Mother/Father May I.”  After the game, have your children talk about what was easy and what was hard about the game.  If you don’t know how to play, a quick search on Google will give you the rules.  J

Relay:  When we were playing Mother May I, obedience was the key to winning the game.  The Bible teaches about the importance of children obeying their parents.  In Colossians 3:20, Paul tells children to obey their parents in EVERYTHING.  The reason he gives these instructions is because when we obey our parents, it pleases God.

Obey:

What does it mean to obey?

Why do you think we are to obey our parents in everything?

What areas do you have a hard time obeying your parents?

Pray: Ask God to help you obey your parents every day.
