PROPHETS AND KINGS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT: Elijah (2 of 4)—Challenging Baal’s Prophets to Prove Who is the True God

Please note that this lesson has been revised to make the content more age-appropriate, and will be covered over two weeks. 

December 21, 2025

For those who were not able to attend the all-district fellowship [December 15], we wanted to provide a brief summary of some important things that came up:
  1. Our love and care for the children is more important than covering lessons. The children should enjoy coming to children’s meeting! In each district, please feel free to adjust what you cover, slow down, or even skip a lesson if that is what works best for your children.
  2. Monday, January 12 at 7:30-9:00 PM – our next all-district lesson fellowship for the older level lessons. We need the portion of the saints from every district! 
  3. Lord’s Day evening, January 18 at 7:30-9:00PM – fellowship about children’s service for the upcoming Jan 25 citywide meeting.
  4. Changes to lessons. The suggested schedule for the lessons has changed. Some lessons have also been recently updated/edited based on our fellowship. The new lesson schedule and edited versions are accessible online on the church website and are also listed here:
December 21, 2025 – repeat last week’s lesson – Elijah (2 of 4)—Challenging Baal’s Prophets to Prove Who is the Real God. Some saints mentioned that the attendance was lower due to the snow on Lord’s Day, so we plan to repeat the lesson from last week.

February 22, 2026

Elisha—Twenty Loaves of Bread and the Ax Head
We will cover the first story in this lesson about the twenty loaves of bread feeding 100 people.

March 1, 2026

Elisha—Twenty Loaves of Bread and the Ax Head
We will cover the second story in this lesson about Elisha causing the ax head to float. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: After our all-district fellowship, we considered more about the lesson Joash—Hidden In the Temple and decided to SKIP this lesson because the content is not so suitable for children (a lot of violence including the killing of Athaliah’s own grandchildren). While it contained some good points to follow the proper leading ones (e.g., Joash listening to Jehoiada at first), there are more child-friendly Bible stories that would be better suited for this point. The lesson is still on the website, but we included a NOTE TO SERVING ONES at the top that the content is better for middle schoolers and high schoolers.

Hezekiah—King of Judah (first part)

  • We encourage the serving ones to read the Scriptures accompanying this lesson to get the feel and tone of what’s going on in the stories.
  • This lesson on Hezekiah has been revised and split into two weeks.
  • The first part of the lesson is about Hezekiah trusting God through various situations. The focus is to help the children realize that we can pray and fully trust the Lord in everything all our lives. The second part of the lesson warns against showing off, as Hezekiah did when he showed everything he had to the king of Babylon’s representatives. We need to be humble and guard against pride in our hearts.
  • Some questions at the end of each Bible story have been added to help the serving ones and children understand the story.
