David (later life)
DAVID #2
Possible Lesson Plan:
- Open with prayer.
- Scripture Reference: II Kingdoms/ II Samuel 11-12. Short but powerful this week. King David and “I gotta have that girl!” What did David do to get Bathsheba? How did he solve the “problem” of Bathsheba’s marriage to Uriah? Did this really solve the problem? Did the sin remain hidden in the end? Several important characters stand out: David, Bathsheba, Nathan, and Uriah. Try 20 questions to identify the characters.

Possible Lesson Plan:
- Open with prayer.
- Scripture Reference: Ezekiel 1, 3:1-6, 4, 17:1-12, 37. Ezekiel is a book full of visions. Have the students scan each of the assigned passages. Give each student a slip of paper with a passage on it and play “Pictionary” with each student in turn drawing a picture of the vision and the class guessing which vision it is.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
SHADRACH, MESHACH, AND ABEDNEGO
Possible Lesson Plan:
- Open with prayer.
- Scripture Reference: Daniel 3. A short story, probably well-known to most of the class. In preparation for our craft today (Yes, even teens occasionally like crafts!), have each student write a short children’s version of the story, with as much speaking of the characters and as little by the narrator as possible.
