6th Grade Bible Fun

In Bible for 6th grade we have been going through the New Testament. The past two weeks we've walked through Paul's letters to the Ephesians and Phillipians.

Last week we learned how important it is to use the armor of God to be spiritually ready for warfare in this world (Ephesians 6). The students were assigned different parts of the armor of God.

Thankfully because the Apostle Paul is already present in our classroom (Megan Gallagher's fabulous project!), we were able to add the armor to Paul!

The evolution of Apostle Paul in our classroom! 







Ephesians 6:10-18

"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.  In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.  Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."

Lastly, We're using a Word of the Day/Week for transitions now. Last week's Word of the Week was Submit. The 6th grade students made a little cheer to help them remember what submit means :) Enjoy!


I don't know about you... but I can't be encouraged ENOUGH to "Submit to the Lord!" :)
