Reply to "Object Lessons & Demonstrations about Renewal, Recommitment for Kids"

Where do Sunday School Teachers, Youth Leaders, and Pastors come from?

A Domino Demonstration

Note: Colours in brackets just indicate the colour of the domino found in the photo, for reference to the story.

A long time ago a child (bottom yellow) told two friends (white) about Jesus.Child-SS Teacher-Youth Worker-Pastor

One of those children didn’t tell anyone about Jesus. But, the other child told a friend about Jesus (red), who then told someone else (red) about Jesus, and the story about Jesus kept being passed on (red/blue 3 times) to others until one day . . . . a person told someone (yellow) who grew up to become a SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER .

This Sunday School teacher taught a class at her church (white medium fieldstarter) that had 10 kids (2 rows of white) all about Jesus.

Some of those kids told others (add Blue & Red) about Jesus, but some who heard (indicate the two White) did not tell anyone, so Jesus’ story stopped with them.

But, one (last white on right) did pass along the story, and others who heard told others (six white), until this child (yellow) grew up to be a Youth Worker who taught their Youth Group (white small fieldstarter) kids (2 rows of red) all about Jesus. those kids grew up and one became a Pastor, one became a Youth Worker, and one became a Sunday School teacher (red/blue/red) who all preached at the same church (white large fieldstarter) and continued spreading the story of Jesus to others.

So one child sharing the Gospel brought 5 others to minster (Sunday School Teachers, Youth Workers, and a Pastor) to do God's work.

Possible Follow up Reflections:

So tell me.... where are YOU in this domino setup?  Do you think you might be a teacher or pastor some day?  What or Who might move you to become a teacher? (Accept all answers, and include God as one of the movers!)

Where does GOD fit into this domino demonstration? Truth is, God can touch any domino at any time and move that person to believe in him and follow his will.

A domino person might refuse or reject the message. What does God do then? Is God's great message totally dependent on people to spread it?


Note: Dominoes and Accessories used for this example were "H5 Domino Creations Set by Lily Hevesh," which included the three "Fieldstarters" we used for this demonstration as churches.
