EXPLORING VIRTUES – LOVE
We were created to love like our Creator!
Everything revolves around this one virtue! It’s the reason we exist. We were created out of love – God’s love!! Love was the reason!! God is love (1 John 4:8), and when we accept His free gift of salvation (John 3:16) and invite Him into our hearts He fills our hearts with His love so we can, in turn, spread it all around.
Love is a virtue worth exploring!!!
It’s time to go on a Bible hunt with the kids in your life! This virtue exploration is broken down into 4 sections, and focuses on exploring Bible verses that fit/explain the virtue in the spotlight. Each section is a “starting point” to help ignite the flame. The possibilities are endless, really!!
Use the information below however you see fit. You may even feel inspired to add in a lesson or two about Bible heroes that fit the virtue being explored! Go with it!! Allow God to direct the search and be open to all there is to glean from each exploration.
Remember, digging into the Bible with kids is an adventure! Take your time and enjoy the journey!
