A Day in the Life of Jesus — preaching, healing, and praying — Luke 4 and Mark 1

An illustrated depiction of Jesus teaching in a synagogue in Capernaum, with a map showing Capernaum's location.

Luke 4 tells of a very busy Sabbath day in Nazareth. Jesus starts by preaching in the synagogue and casts out a demon. After church he and his disciples go to Peter and Andrew’s home where he heals Peter’s mother-in-law and then they have lunch. After sundown (which technically it’s the next day), the town people bring the sick to be healed. Even after a late night, Jesus gets up early to spend time with His Father. Throughout the day, Jesus is living his sermon, which came from Isaiah 61. He came to tell the good news, give sight to the blind, and set people free. We finish the presentation with a obstacle course activity. The coloring page book that goes along with the lesson can be found here:

Jesus Overcomes Temptation

Jesus overcame temptation and He will help us overcome temptation, too! We can put on the full armor of God, pray, and stand firm against temptation.

In this presentation we take a close look at Jesus’ temptations and how he overcame. We look at the verses He quoted in Deuteronomy and see that God is #1 and find that His Word is our Sword. The kids can make a simple dough person and add simple shapes to represent the armor of God as we learn ways to overcome temptation.

You can preview the lesson below. The download above has more music and a video of the dessert which I made while there.
