This is our video lesson using the DVD "Road to Emmaus". I can't claim that it's original - I can't remember what I drew on when creating it. But it might be a starting point for someone.

Questions for Reflection: (print the questions out and tape to the bottom of chairs in the TV room – get the children to look under their chairs when it comes time to answer; each child can read the question and answer or pass to the next person)
Pretend that you were one of the two disciples talking over troubling events or dashed hopes in your life. What would you be talking about today that has thrown you into confusion?
What do you understand better about Jesus after watching the movie?
If you were asking people today what they would be looking for in a Messiah, what might you hear?
After seeing the movie, how would you explain to someone why Jesus had to suffer and die?
If you were one of the disciples on the road talking with Jesus right now, what would you still want to ask him?
