Unit 2 - Lesson 9 - New Testament

Bonus: Jesus is Born

Theme: Incarnation
Biblical Basis: Luke 2:1-20

Because of the Roman census, the people of Israel were required to be registered in their ancestral villages. Being of the family of David, Joseph needed to travel south to the town of Bethlehem, with his pregnant fiancée Mary. While they were there, Mary gave birth to baby Jesus as shepherds were told the angelic news!

Additional Text: Micah 5:2-5a
Lesson Prayer:

Heavenly Father, you have sent your Son into the world to be our Savior. We thank you for coming to us in humility and peace. As your angel revealed to the shepherds the promise of the Savior, give us such a knowledge of your goodness that we, too, would spread with joy the message of Jesus’ birth. In his blessed name we pray. Amen.

Memory Verse:

She gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn. (Luke 2:7 ESV)

Creative Idea for the Week:

Many congregations spend Sunday School time in the weeks leading up to Christmas in the rehearsal and performance of an annual Christmas Program. But every congregation is different. This bonus lesson on the Christmas Story is meant to be used wherever it fits best into the local Church's calendar.
