Family Worship Activity:
Gather your families around this week and make super easy megaphones out of rolled up construction paper. Have each person whisper into their megaphone truths from our bible lesson (while the others practice listening) –
Example of Bible truths you can use:
* God is amazing
* God speaks to me
* God isn’t in the earthquake, wind, or fire- he’s in a whisper
* I am not alone!
* God provides!
* Deuteronomy 7:21
Then make the connection that God is always making effort to speak to us- we need only to listen.
