Salt Online – Sunday 9th of August

It’s week four of the Doctrine Series. Last week we looked at the story of God. Today, we consider the Bible’s story of humanity. It’s a bit dark, but there’s light at the end.

Salt Kids 

Colin Buchanan Series
This term for Salt Kids we will be following Colin Buchanan’s Compassion series of talks and activities. Colin did a special introduction video for Salt Kids which can be viewed here. And he’s right – nothing rhymes with Wollongong!

Colin Buchanan’s Compassion series – Episode 1
Kids’ Talks with Colin – Episode 1 – Big Things

Watch Episode 1 above and then choose which appropriate activity to do afterwards:

  1. Colin colouring sheet – great option for non readers and crafty types that want to colour something special.
  2. A mini bible study based on a bible passage related to what Colin teaches in the video. – This is great for readers! Print out the visual prompts and talk them through with your kids to know what to look for as they read the passage. You might like to stick this in front of a new journal for the kids to use as they do their mini bible study. Each week, print the passage or find it in a bible and let the kids make their notes from each heading. Some kids might prefer to draw or talk out their reflections instead. You’ll probably recognise the prompts from the Swedish method of bible study that we’ve used in Small Groups. Check out this article by Youthworks if you want a bit more advice about how to use this tool.
    Bible Passages for episode 1: Psalm 95:3-4, Colossians 1:19–20
