April 18/19, 2015 Plug In: Let It Go (Esau makes peace with Jacob) Power Up Point: Prove you care about others by letting go of “what’s fair.” Pass it On: (Bible Time) Genesis 26:41-45; 31:3; 32:1-21; 33:1-11 Ask a kid: which of your friends would encourage you to choose peace instead of getting even? Ask a parent: How can we, as a family, create an atmosphere of peace instead of fighting? Read Romans 14:9 One way to live in peace is to encourage the people around you and build them up. You could build someone up by choosing to be kind or by listening or by letting someone else go first or putting their needs above your own. Building someone up means telling them how important they are to you. The truth is, it’s easy to tear someone down with our words or actions. But if we want to be peacemakers, we need to be more focused on building others up. Find a set of blocks or plastic cups. Use them to practice building a tower. Then knock the tower down. Which was easier: building the tower up or knocking it down? Think about three people that you see almost everyday (they could be family or friends). Make a plan to use your words to build them up this week. Want to talk to your kids more about Peace? Download the Parent Cue App on your smartphone or notebook and visit Studio252.tv.

Just like Peter!” Prayer Time: Dear God, thank you for loving us so much! Help us to always remember to GO and TELL others about your amazing love! We love you Jesus!
