Elementary Discussion Questions
How did today’s story teach us that Jesus loves everyone?
Prompt kids to remember that Jesus does not love one group of people more than another because He died for all people. Discuss how Jesus’ death on the cross forgives the sins of anyone who believes in Him. Help kids understand that because Jesus does not show favoritism, we shouldn’t either.
Is it OK that everyone is different? Why?
Discuss how God made all people unique and has given us all certain characteristics. Remind kids that all people are made in the image of God and that He loves them. Point out that having differences allows us to serve and love others in unique ways. Discuss how the church is made of many different people.
How can we love others who are different from us?
Remind kids that because God loves all people, we are called to love all people. Tell kids that the best way to love others is to share Jesus with them. Explain that we can also serve people to show that we love them such as helping a kid at school with homework or being kind to a new kid at school.

Question 31: What do we believe by true faith?
Answer: We believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
Question 32: What do justification and sanctification mean?
Answer: Justification means our declared righteousness before God. Sanctification means our gradual, growing righteousness.
