Quest for Identity: Jacob Week 2

This year during FamilyQuest we are on a quest for our identity. We will accomplish this by studying various characters in the Bible, discovering the characteristic(s) that identified them, and then using those as a model for a personal understanding of our own identity which we have when we are born again and are in Christ Jesus.

(Note to Parents: We need you to clearly convey that this identity is ONLY for those who have experienced salvation through Christ Jesus and are new creatures. Although it is AVAILABLE to everyone, it is not an identity that AUTOMATICALLY BELONGS to everyone.)

During this unit, we are learning that Jacob was "Chosen".  We, too, have been chosen but we must activate our identity by reciprocating and choosing Christ!

Below you will find a link to a jigsaw puzzle piece word matching templates for young children.  The jigsaw puzzles use picture clues and simple Bible story vocabulary for those just learning to read.  This set of puzzles includes pictures and words from the story about Jacob and Esau from Genesis Chapters 25 and 27.
