Sunday School Parent Connection: Sun. Mar 16 - Jesus Teaches Nicodemus
Mount Olive's Sunday School Parent Connection
A partnership between teachers and parents to educating our children and nourishing their spiritual growth!
JESUS TEACHES NICODEMUS
Today in Sunday School, we learned about Jesus teaching the Pharisee Nicodemus under the cover of night (John 3:1–21). Since the fall into sin, we are all born spiritually blind, sinful, and unclean. We are like Nicodemus and cannot see our sin or understand who Jesus truly is for us. As children of God, born of water and the Spirit, we can see our sinfulness and the salvation that is ours in Jesus Christ.
This morning we watched a short video about Nicodemus talking with Jesus and discussed the importance of Baptism. We learned a new Easter song with Mrs. Preus and Pastor Ted joined us as we broke out into our classroom discussions about today's lesson.
