The Christmas season is here. For most families, that means fun traditions like decorating, baking, exchanging gifts, and visiting relatives. It can be difficult, however, for our kids to understand exactly why we do all these things. That’s exactly where Zack is at this season, but don’t worry, Dr. Oldman intends to help.

Join eKidz next weekend for our greatest adventure yet: Zack in Time!

We are down to the second to last week of The Worship Games 2 and the competition is at a fever pitch. Check out this thrilling event as the final three teams take to the rock climbing wall!

In a surprise performance, the Orange Team of Dr. Oldman and Brad Hudson soared to an impressive victory and the Green Team was eliminated. Mr. Larry shared that Brad and Dr. Oldman prayed together before the event, bringing a special unity to their team. There is power in prayer and when we join our faith together, it certainly strengthens us and fills us with hope. In your family this week, make sure you’re strengthening the bonds of your family by taking time to pray together. It not only invites God into your situation but fills your family with a unified attitude.

Next week, our final two teams, Orange and Black, face off in the epic conclusion to The Worship Games 2! Make sure to get to your nearest Elevation campus and into eKidz to see what happens!

Bible Story: Saul’s Conversion | Acts 9:10-15

Main Point: Sometimes being unified means doing difficult things.

This week in The Worship Games 2, the remaining four teams competed in a mountain bike relay race. This exciting race included a couple crashes and a photo finish. Check out what happened!

Dr. Oldman just came in ahead of Jane and the White Team was eliminated. In his preview of next week’s event, Mr. Larry talked about how sometimes being unified means doing difficult things. The example he gave came from the book of Acts in the Bible, where Ananias was asked by God to do something difficult. God asked Ananias to help Saul, a known persecutor of Christians. Even though he would have been afraid and probably confused about why God would want him to do that, Ananias agreed to help Saul because he as united with other Christians.

As a family this week, talk about things that are sometimes difficult to do but help promote unity in your family, your church, or with other Christians. Pray and ask God to give each of you the strength and courage to continue to do those things.
