What did you learn about God in today’s Bible story?
God made people, and out of everything He created, He loves us most of all. God created us special. He made us in His image. We are the only creation God made in His image.
What are some ways we can be like God? How are we different from God?
God loves, creates, thinks, and rules, and He made us to love, create, think, and rule too. There are lots of other ways God made us like Him, but there are many ways God is different from us too. We are not in charge of everything. We do not know all things. We do not have power over all things. But we can love and trust this good God who made us!
Why did God create everything? God created everything for His glory and for our good
Elementary Discussion Questions
Why do you think God created people in His image?
Remind kids that God created everything for His glory and our good. By creating people in His image, God ensured there was a special way that His glory could be shown in creation. By giving people intelligence, creativity, emotions, and authority, He created beings who can experience and understand God’s goodness and love.
Because everyone is created in God’s image, how should we treat others and ourselves?
Help kids see that our deep and lasting value comes from God, not from ourselves. When we understand that all people are valued by God, it helps us love one another and treat one another with kindness and care. We can rest in God’s love for us as our source of value. We can go out of our way to help and serve one another because we know that God has done so for us through Jesus. Just as we don’t need to earn God’s love, other people don’t need to earn our love—it is given freely.
What are some ways you can show God’s goodness and glory?
Guide kids to think about using the gifts and talents God has given us to glorify Him. Explain how showing love and kindness to others helps them see God’s love and kindness. Point out that God has given us responsibility to steward His creation wisely, so we can honor and glorify God through treating His creation with respect.
