Wet and Wild

Module Overview

This summer module tells two wild accounts from scripture that incorporate water. The first lesson is about a blind man who Jesus heals by putting mud on his eyes and telling him to go wash in the pool of Siloam. Children will begin to understand that Jesus cares for them just as He cared for the blind man. The second lesson teaches how Jesus calmed a raging sea storm. Children will be taught that Jesus is always in control, even when we feel things are wild.
