I look forward to exploring with your child the remarkable stories from this unit in the weeks to come. At some point in our time together, we will marvel at the miraculous birth of our Savior Jesus through the Christmas session.
In our other sessions we will take a look at dramatic Old Testament stories of thievery, murder, blazing chariots, hope for the hurting, and an amazing healing.
Here are the stories we'll be covering:
Celebrate Jesus’ Birth

The Amazing Healing of Naaman
Our Memory Challenge for this unit is Isaiah 40:29-31. Feel free to talk with your child in the upcoming weeks about how these verses relate to your lives and to learn them together. A great way to make this passage part of your life is to sing the Memory Challenge song “Soar Like Eagles,” which you can access by purchasing the DwellSongs 2 CD or downloading the song from the Leader Support page of DwellCurriculum.org.
