Talk about the lesson with your family…
  • 1. Start by reciting the memory verse together:

“In everything gives thanks, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

– 1 Thessalonians 5:18

  • 2. In the Bible story (Luke 7:36-50), why did everyone know the woman who entered the room? (They knew her because she was a big sinner.)
  • 3. What four things did the woman do as she knelt at Jesus’ feet? (She cried tears onto his feet, dried them with her hair, kissed them, and poured expensive perfume on them.)
  • 4. What did the other guests think about what she did? (They were upset and thought it was a waste. They thought Jesus should not be kind to her.)
  • 5. Why did the woman do all of this? (To express her love and thankfulness because Jesus had forgiven her of all the rules she had broken and the bad things she had done.)
  • 6. What did Jesus do for all of us because of His great love? (He died on the cross to rescue us. Then He rose from the dead so now when we come to Jesus, He forgives us and brings us into His family.)
  • 7. What are some ways we can say “thank you” to God?

Below is a coloring page that you can download and print. On it are spaces around the “I am thankful” bubble. Write or draw things in the spaces that you are thankful for. Use it to express thanks for what God has done for us. You can do one together as a family, or do it individually.

Seek God together

Take turns giving thanks to God for specific things you are each thankful for. After everyone has had a turn, close with this prayer:

Dear God,
Thank you for creating us. Thank you for Jesus. Thank you or all you have given us. May our lives and our words and our actions show you how much we love you and how thankful we are. We give our hearts and our lives to You.
In Jesus’s name, Amen 

Celebrate together

God has done so much for us! We have a million reasons to thank Him!

Here’s another song of thanks:
