Dear Parents,
This week, we’ll learn about “Abraham Followed God”
(Genesis 11–13). God called Abram to leave his home and go to a land He would show him. Abram obeyed, and God promised to bless him and make him into a great nation. After traveling to Egypt during a famine, Abram and his nephew Lot separated due to their growing wealth. Lot chose the fertile land near Sodom, while Abram stayed in Canaan. God reaffirmed His promise to Abram, saying his descendants would be more than he could count. Abram trusted God, and through his descendants, Jesus came to bless the whole world.
I hope this message will inspire your child to grow in the love and light of Jesus. To help reinforce the lesson at home, please discuss the following points with your child:
- Abram’s Obedience: Talk about how Abram trusted and followed God’s call to leave his home and family.
- God’s Promises: Discuss how God promised to bless Abram and make him the father of many nations.
- Jesus Fulfills the Promise: Explain how God kept His promise by sending Jesus, a descendant of Abram, to bless the world and save us.
Pray with your child, thanking God for His promises and for sending Jesus to rescue us.
Grace and blessings in Christ,
Danny Sungshin Park
Pastor of Children’s Cell
