SuperVerse
- Whiteboard and marker; or chalkboard and chalk
- Bibles or the Superbook Bible App
Write the SuperVerse on the board. Romans 8:37:
Superbook Champion: Memorize the SuperVerse with a group activity.
Ten spies were afraid of giants in the land, but Joshua and Caleb believed God would give the people victory if they would simply trust Him. Later, Joshua would lead Israel’s army to conquer their enemies with God’s help. Do you remember another man in the Bible who trusted in God to defeat a giant? David.
David was a champion for God and so was Joshua. They acted by faith not by sight.
Divide the class into two equal groups. You may choose to have boys against girls. Today, we are going to have a contest to see who can memorize the SuperVerse. Everyone on your team will work together to memorize the verse. Then each team will choose a champion to represent the team in saying the verse in front of the whole class.
Give the teams a minute or two to memorize the verse, have them choose a champion, and let each champion try to recite it to the class.
Christ loves us and empowers us; He gives us victory over all things—even giant problems!
Younger children may not be able to memorize the entire SuperVerse, simply have them repeat it several times and be sure they understand its meaning.
