Love Your (Babylon) Neighbor | Jeremiah 28-29 Sermon on Faith and Politics

Love Your (Babylon) Neighbor Three fun facts about me: 1) I grew up in Estes Park. 2) My dad was a pastor so I grew up a pastor’s kid. I spent a lot of time at church playing in the gym and I knew a lot of Bible trivia. For example, who’s the oldest person in the Bible? Anyone? Methuselah at 969 years old. The second oldest? Jared. 962 years old. 3) I was a pastor for nine years out in Massachusetts and I used to be Mackenna’s pastor. Mackenna has been a part of our family since she was about 14 when my wife started mentoring her and was her Sunday school teacher. 

Awana Sparks Lesson: K is for Keep (James 2:10)

James 2:10 Jenga Lesson Looking for a creative lesson to teach your Awana Spark's on K is for Keep from James 2:10? James 2:10 (NIV) says, "For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it." Inviting a team leader to come to the front and build a tower using toy blocks or a giant Jenga set is a great way to illustrate this verse and keep the kids engaged.
