This year in FamilyQuest we’ll be looking at some Old Testament heroes of the faith. We’ll see how God took flawed human beings and accomplished great things while showing many, including us, just who He is. These famous heroes faced many hard choices and had to trust God to do miraculous things. We pray that as you study these real, live heroes your families will be encouraged that you, too, can trust God to do the big things that seem impossible to us.
During this unit we will be learning about Joshua. Joshua was the man chosen to follow Moses as the leader of the Israelites because he believed God's promise to lead them to their new land, even when that land looked impossible to take. Through trust in God, obedience, and choosing God over all the other things around him, Joshua became one of the best leaders the Israelites ever had.
Here's an idea to help with this unit's memory verse, Joshua 24:15:
Make a puzzle out of the memory verse. This is pretty simple and doesn't take any special skills. Grab a sheet of paper and write the memory verse on it. It helps if you write it fairly large and very neatly so your kiddos can read it. Once it's written on the paper, cut it into puzzle pieces. As a family, put the puzzle together. Then say the verse together three times, out loud. Do this once a day and you'll have your verse memorized in no time!
Here's a link to a song that might help, too: click on the track titled CHOOSE
