The lesson “Jacob’s Ladder” emphasizes the importance of forgiveness, teaching the children about how God came to Jacob and told him He would still bless him even though he had made a mistake. The children will describe how God appeared to Jacob and then discuss how Jacob then honored God at Bethel. Each child will state what it means to be a child of God. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the tenth lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum and part of the “God Builds a Nation” unit.
