DRIVE TIME
When you get in the car, ask your child, “What gives the car power?” As you drive, continue asking your child what gives things power (radio, cell phone, street lights, anything you see along the way). Tell your child, “When Jesus is our friend, He gives us the power to love people the way He loves us. Jesus gives us the power to do everything!”

REMEMBER THIS:
“I can do everything by the power of Christ.”
Philippians 4:13, NIrV

BASIC TRUTH: JESUS WANTS TO BE MY FRIEND FOREVER.

This month, we will continue with our Power Up theme as we learn how Jesus gives us the power to love others— and not just the ones who are easy to love. No, this kind of power is what helps us love everyone! This powerful kind of love looks a lot like goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Our hope is that in the midst of playing games and laughing, connecting with friends and spending time with small group leaders, talking with parents at home and driving down the road, our preschoolers will learn how much Jesus wants to help them be all that God made them to be. Everything that Jesus is—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control—is available to us. All we have to do is plug into the power source and POWER UP!
