Talk About the Bible Story

Zacchaeus

Open the Bible together and read Luke 19:1-10 or watch the video together on the Parent Cue app.

“Be kind and loving to each other.”

Ephesians 4:32, NCV

Engagement Questions

• Who does Jesus love?
• Jesus loves us even when we do something wrong. What are some wrong things? (For example, not sharing, not obeying parents, taking something that does not belong to us, etc.)

Prayer

“Dear God, thank You for sending Jesus to love us no matter what and to show us how to love others. Please forgive us when we do wrong things. And help us forgive others too. You’re the best, God, and we love You. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

ENGAGE IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS TOGETHER

Morning Time

When you go into your child’s room, cuddle them and say: "Good morning, [child's name]! I'm going to give you a BIG Jesus-size hug because Jesus loves everyone no matter what. That's some really BIG love!"
 

Drive Time

While on the go, take turns naming things we can climb. (For example, a ladder, stool, rope, tree, etc.) Talk about how Zacchaeus climbed a tree so he could see Jesus. Jesus was kind and loving to Zaccaheus, because Jesus wanted to be his friend forever.

Cuddle Time

Cuddle with your child and pray: "God, I know what it feels like to do something wrong. It is not a good feeling. Thank You for sending Jesus to show us that You will always love us no matter what. That is a VERY good feeling!"
 

Bath Time

Play the song "Zacchaeus Was A Wee Little Man" during bath time. Repeat the song and sing along. You can even do the hand motions! Talk about how Jesus loved Zacchaeus even though he had done wrong things because Jesus loves everyone!
