Perk Up Your Kid’s Bible Class with A Second Hand Surprise!

March 17, 2021 by Gwen Schnell Leave a Comment

 

Judges 2:14-16

Then the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and He handed them over to plunderers, and they plundered them; and He sold them into the hands of their enemies around them, so that they could no longer stand against their enemies.  Wherever they went, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had spoken and just as the Lord had sworn to them, so that they were severely distressed.

 Then the Lord raised up judges

who saved them from the hands of those who plundered them.

 

Greetings! To my sister Bible class teachers!

 

How many of you out there like thrift stores? I do!

These second hand stores are perfect to find something to Perk Up Your Kid’s Bible Class!

I am always on the look out for Bible class visual aids and this time I happened to find something that had been on my list for quite a while.

One of those large, hard cover, book boxes that opens up for storing different items inside.

This one just happens to be large enough to use medium size Bible props/pictures having to do with our Bible lesson!

I just thought it was a beautiful, useful find and wanted to share!

The title on the spine and front will be covered to say Bible Lesson Clues. 

With my upcoming lessons on the Judges, I will now keep my eyes open for little props to use as clues about something in each lesson! 

The beauty of this prop is that it will work with any lesson of the Bible!

What an amazing second hand surprise!!

So think again before getting rid of that book box!

Before I found this “book” I was seriously thinking about creating one from cardboard, (maybe a cereal box) paper, and hot glue. A project such as this is possible but now that I have this to use I won’t have to dig into my stash of cardboard. 

After I found this “book” I was in Hobby Lobby and saw a section at the mid. front of the store that had these same style books for sale. Brand new they were priced $29.99. (You could wait for their 50% off day, but I think I got a really great deal!)

If you know of a carpenter in your midst I bet they would be thrilled to help you by creating a Bible box Prop with hinges just for you!

Proverbs 11:25b …whoever refreshes others will also be refreshed.

We know you are busy and that life’s hectic pace pulls you in so many directions, but you can’t truly be the woman God desires unless you take time to fill your own cup…not with spa days (though we love a good spa!) or the latest novel…but with God’s Holy Word. We want to help you with that! Our goal is to reach you in the midst of your busy day and give you encouragement, education, and fellowship as you strive to live the life God has laid before you.
