Jesus is back… but the disciples are bored?!?
“I’m bored!” I wonder how many of us have had to listen to that complaint recently?
In this week’s story Peter experiences a roller-coaster of emotions – which I think many of us can relate to! Click here to see the story.
As a family you might like to watch this and then share what emotions you are feeling right now. Or perhaps you could have a BBQ, like Jesus, and then use these questions to reflect on the story:
- After that first Easter, why do we think Peter & the disciples went fishing?
- Why do we think Peter jumped out of the boat and what might have stopped some of the other disciples from doing the same thing?
- How might Peter have felt when Jesus gave him the job of feeding Jesus’ “sheep” (followers)?
- If you were with Jesus on the beach, what job would you hope He’d give you?
As ever, we have a ‘picnic basket’ of ideas below, things to do and explore to get even more out of the story. We hope that these will help if you ever get told “I’m bored!”…
God bless you all,
Richard, Claire and Linda.
