Big Story Gospel Conversation Guide
August 2025 – Elementary: Origin Story- Where Our Story with God Begins
Elementary:
Monthly Virtue: Faith – Trusting in what you can’t see because of what you can see.
Memory Verse: Faith is being sure of what we hope for. It is being sure of what we do not see.
Hebrews 11:1 (NIrV)
Every story has a beginning. As we explore Creation, the Fall and other pivotal moments in the origin of our faith, kids will discover that not only did God create everything, but even after people chose to go their own way, God had a plan to restore us. We can see how God faithfully began to fulfill that plan in Abram’s call and in the lives of Jacob and Joseph—and we look forward to the fulfillment of that plan in Jesus. When kids see how God has worked in the past, they can grow in faith that our faithful God continues to work in and through each person who chooses to follow Jesus.
