| John 14:6 is probably one of the most beloved | | | | C. His truth |
| and memorized Bible verses of all time. It says, "I | | | | Proverbs 12:19 says this: " Truth stands the test |
| am the way, the truth and the life. No man | | | | of time; lies are soon exposed." Have you ever |
| comes to the Father accept through me." Simple, | | | | told a lie and were then found out? Unfortunately, |
| but most profound. Help your kids memorize this | | | | most of us can say,"Yes", to this question. Here's |
| amazing Scripture by playing this very fun Bible | | | | another question. Have you ever noticed how |
| school activity, which I call "Way, Truth, Life Dice." | | | | things that are true are told over and over again |
| Here's what you do: | | | | through every generation whereas most lies fizzle |
| This game takes some preparation, but your kids | | | | out over time? For example, it is true that God |
| will appreciate the time you spent. First, you want | | | | made you, God loves you and God will always |
| to make 5 large dice. I went to my local box | | | | take care of all your needs. These are truths that |
| store and bought 5 - 7" cubes. I then went on | | | | will never go away, but will always stand the test |
| my computer and created some nice words: way, | | | | of time. |
| truth and life. Place 2 of each word on each die. | | | | God's truth will: |
| Therefore, each die will show 2 of each word. | | | | A. eventually become lies |
| Next, make 12 cards. Four will say "Way", four will | | | | B. always stand the test of time |
| say "Truth" and the last 4 will say "Life". Place | | | | C. make me grow wings |
| these in a bucket or hat. Now, have ready your | | | | In Isaiah 30:11, there were some stubborn people |
| list of multiple choice questions found below. Finally, | | | | who didn't want to hear the truth of God. Instead, |
| before playing the Bible review game, have the | | | | they were willing to hear lies! God's truth made |
| children memorize John 14:6. The faster they | | | | them uncomfortable. God's truth might make you |
| memorize it, the better their team will do. | | | | feel uncomfortable too sometimes, but I hope |
| Here's how to play: | | | | you'll always remember that when God speaks |
| Divide your class into 2 teams. Show the class | | | | truth to you it's because He loves you and wants |
| the dice and show how each die has the words: | | | | what is best for you. Never ignore God's |
| way, truth and life on them. Have one child come | | | | wonderful truth. |
| up from the first team. Let him pick out a card | | | | Sometimes God's truth might make me: |
| from the bucket. This card will tell you what type | | | | A. feel uncomfortable |
| of question to ask. If the child answers correctly, | | | | B. fall asleep |
| let him roll each of the 5 dice. He wants to roll as | | | | C. have the hiccups |
| many of the word that he picked out of the | | | | John 8:32 says this: "And you will know the truth, |
| bucket. For example, if he picked a "Way" | | | | and the truth will set you free." Have you ever |
| question, he wants to roll as many "Ways" as he | | | | noticed how lies can get people's lives tangled up |
| can. For each "Way" he rolls, he gets 100 points | | | | in a mess? God's truth does just the opposite. It |
| for his team. Finally, he can earn an extra 100 | | | | frees us and allows us to live lives that are not |
| points if he can correctly recite John 14:6. Play | | | | only pleasing to God, but also pleasing to those |
| until both teams have answered the questions. | | | | around us. |
| The team with the most points wins. | | | | God's truth: |

| and where to go. | | | | whoever fails to find me harms himself, all who |
