Camel thru the Eye of a Needle Mark 10:23-27
Welcome-allow kids to tell you about thier week
Prayer/and Requests

Review Previous weeks lesson
Lesson: Story of rich man wanting to go to heaven but refuses to give up his money
-explain funny Hyperbole--exaggerations--I died laughing
I could sleep forver
I am so hungry I could eat a cow
I tried a thousand times
-Introduce: It's easier for a camel to go thru the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to get to heaven. Which means, it's REALLY hard for a rich man to enter heaven. Sometimes if you have everything this earth has to offer, you think you don't need God. You love things more than God.
-Ask them what is important to them---are they putting it above God?? Write out answers on white board
-Have things to show the kids that could become too important: money, video game or pictures of large house, cars , clothes and toys. God needs to come 1st.
-Have a volunteer try to thread a needle, then maybe a with rope next, then a stuffed animal..then have a volunteer try to squeeze thru a small space. Be careful not to put things before God, because they slowly seperate us from Him.
Memory Verse: "for with God, all things are possible.." Mark 10:27b
Seperate verse onto 6 different colored construction paper. Have 6 regular size shipping boxes and stack them into a pyramid shape. Secure tape verse to the boxes. Have volunteers take turns kicking down the pyramid and rebuilding in the right order.
