Scripture: Luke 1:5-25 (Birth of John the Baptist)
Focus: The birth of John the Baptist reminds us God can do the impossible! His plans often happen in surprising ways, which encourages us to hope and trust Him.
Bottom Line: Nothing is impossible with God.
Application: I can trust God to do what seems impossible.
In this week’s lesson, kids will learn how God promised Zechariah and Elizabeth a baby, even though they were old and didn’t think it could happen. When John was born, it showed God always keeps His promises, no matter how impossible they seem — and He would do it again later when He sent Jesus!
