Elementary Discussion Questions
When is it harder to love other people?
Discuss how it can be challenging to love people at all times. Lead kids to discuss how it is often harder to love people when they are mean to us or do not show us love. Prompt kids to think about how God showed us love even before we loved Him. Tell kids that God loved us while we were sinners and that He loves us still even when we don’t love Him perfectly. Encourage kids to love all people as God has loved them.
Do we only love people by telling them we love them? Why not?
Lead kids to understand that love is more than just telling people we love them. Explain that we do show love with our words when we are kind and say we’re sorry or encourage people. Discuss how we also show love with our actions and how we find ways to put others before ourselves. Provide some examples of how we demonstrate love such as helping without being asked, letting a friend take a turn first, or obeying the first time.
How has God shown you His love?
Answers will vary. Encourage kids to remember that God loves all people and has shown His love through His Son, Jesus, who He sent to die on the cross for our sins. Invite kids to share other ways God has shown His love such as through providing for them, being a friend, and always being there for them.
