Teaching Searching the hills for one lost lamb

God's kingdom belongs to the humble and trusting, like little children - and every single person is so precious that God goes searching for the one who is lost.

  • Jesus said to be great in God's kingdom, we should be humble like a child. What do you think it means to be humble?
  • The shepherd searched and searched for one lost sheep. How does it feel to know God cares about YOU that much?
  • Jesus said to forgive again and again. Why is forgiving others so important?
