Bigs Discussion Questions

What was your favorite part of today’s Bible story?
Four Gospels In today’s Bible story, one week after people welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem as King, Jesus was arrested and taken to a leader named Pilate. Pilate let the people take Jesus away to be killed on a cross. Jesus never did anything wrong, but the people were mean to Him. Jesus asked God to forgive them. Suddenly, the sky was dark. Jesus cried out, feeling sad and alone. Then He said, “I trust You, God,” and Jesus died. A man named Joseph took care of Jesus’ body and put it in a special cave called a tomb. A big stone was rolled in front of the tomb. On the third day, some women went to the tomb. The big stone was moved, and an angel was there! The angel said, “Don’t be scared! Jesus is alive, just like He said.” The women were so happy! They ran to tell Jesus’ friends the good news.

Elementary Discussion Questions

Why is it important that Jesus really died?
Tell kids that the payment for sin is death. God demands a sacrifice for sin because He is just mand must punish sin. Share how the Bible tells us that without the shedding of blood there can be no forgiveness. Jesus never sinned, but He became the sacrifice for our sin so we can be forgiven. Jesus’ sacrifice meets God’s just standards.
Why is it important that Jesus rose back to life?
Explain how Jesus’ resurrection reveals the power He has over sin and death. Tell kids that Jesus’ resurrection gives us hope. Jesus’ resurrection points to the resurrection all believers will have one day. The Bible says we will be raised just as Jesus was raised. Those who trust Jesus as Savior have eternal life forever with God.
How does Jesus’ death and resurrection bring joy to Christians?
Discuss how Jesus’ death and resurrection brings joy to Christians because when we trust in Jesus, we are saved. Tell kids there is no greater joy than to know our sins are forgiven and we will spend life forever with God. Help kids understand how we can face sadness, difficulties, and challenges with joy because we know nothing can separate us from God’s love. Encourage kids to share this joy with others who do not know Jesus.
