Sometimes life gets off to a rocky start. Through this study of the life of Jacob, kids will see that a life filled with praise and thanksgiving to God can turn things around.

MEMORY VERSE:
“I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Oh, praise the greatness of our God.” Deuteronomy 32:3 (NIV)

LESSONS:
1) Godly Kid, Godly U-turn – Sometimes, we make mistakes. Huge mistakes. But with God, it's never too late to move in a new direction. Genesis 27:1-41. Jacob Gets Isaac's Blessing

2) Godly Kid, Godly Praise – Sometimes, we don't know where we belong. But when we take time to praise God, we realize our place is with him. Genesis 28:10-21. Jacob's dream at Bethel.

3) Godly Kid, Godly Forgiveness – Sometimes, we get weighed down by the bad things we've done. But when we receive forgiveness and offer it to others, our burdens are lifted. Genesis 33:1-20. Jacob's reunion with Esau.

4) Godly Kid, Godly Remembering – Sometimes, it's hard to see how far we've come. But when we take time to remember all that God has done, we realize how much we have to thank Him for. Genesis 35:1-15. God gives Jacob a new name.
