We start the month by looking closely at Genesis 1:26-28. When God created people, he did something special. He created them in His image and gave them the job of taking care of His creation.
Bottom Line: God made me in his Image. We hope to help kids understand that being made in the image of God means we can love, show kindness, be creative, solve problems, and care for others all because we reflect and respond to God's character.

In week two, we look at some of what Paul wrote to Timothy in 1 Timothy 4:12. Although Timothy was a gifted leader, he was young. Paul reminds Timothy that he should stay faithful to the task God gave him. Even in his youth, Timothy was able to lead the church and point people to Jesus.
Bottom Line: God made me to make a difference. As we discover more about our individuality, we can begin to realize that God created us for a purpose. God can use our strengths to help others and show them what it means to follow Jesus. Through Timothy's story, we hope that kids start to understand the purpose God has for them.

For week three, we head to 1 Samuel 16 and discover more about the time God used Samuel to anoint David as the next king of Israel. As the youngest of Jesse's sons, David was the least likely to be crowned king. Yet God helped Samuel discover that the true worth is not what we see on the outside but who they are on the inside.
Bottom Line: God wants me to see what really matters. As we learn more about how God sees us it teaches us how to see ourselves and it can change the way we see others. We pray that kids start to understand that God wants us to see others how He sees them and treat everyone like they matter.
