This Week in Quest :: God is with me so l can be brave.

Main point: God is with me so l can be brave.
Bible story: Moses’ Mom Exodus 1:22-2:10 

As a family, watch this week’s video and discuss these questions together:

  • Who was today’s Bible story about? (baby Moses, Moses’ mom)
  • What was today’s Bible story about? (When a very mean king wanted to get rid of all the baby boys in God’s family, Moses’ mom wanted to protect her baby. She put baby Moses in a basket so he could float safely down the river. The princess found baby Moses! Moses’ mom was able to take care of Moses!)
  • What does this story teach us? (God is with us, so we can be brave.)
  • How do you know that God’s power can help us make the right choice? (God was with Moses’ mother, and He helped her be brave. Just like Moses’ mother, we can be brave, too. God is always with us, and He can help us!)
