Children’s Sermon He is Risen! Bible Object Lesson for Easter Sunday on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Easter is (or should be) the pivotal holiday of the Christian faith. It celebrates the greatest event in history, Jesus is alive and now is a time of rejoicing! Aside from the fancy dresses, fun decorations, and baskets, though, what is it that we honor for Easter? Young children might not always have a solid understanding of the story behind God’s great plan for mankind. In this message, the story of Good Friday and Easter is told through a favorite seasonal treat, jelly beans. Use the colors of the candies to address various elements of the events that took place.

Children’s Message “Jesus is Alive”

Teach kids the power of Jesus’ sacrifice and glory of the Gospel Story with this object lesson for kids ministry.

This Children’s Sermon will teach kids that Jesus is Alive. It’s based on the resurrection account referenced in the Bible passage of John 20:1-18. Use this lesson to teach the Story of Easter for children. The Bible object lesson teaches about that God raised JESUS from the dead, so we can put our hope in Him. Download the teachers notes, watch our Children’s Message example, and gather your supplies. Then you’re ready to share this message in your church next Sunday! Older kids will have a wonderful time acting out this Easter skit.
