Read the illustrated presentation at the Child Bible Story Online page. Then go to the Life of Christ website where you will find articles, maps, charts, and studies about Jesus. As you browse both websites, look for examples of Jesus meeting needs. Each time that you find a time when Jesus showed that he cared, make a star on the left-hand side of a piece of paper, lining the stars vertically one under the other. Then discuss these questions as a family:
• How has Jesus shown that he cares for people?
• In what ways has Jesus shown his love for you by meeting your needs?
• Explain what it means to you personally to know that Jesus cares for you. Does it affect the way you look at needs in your own life? How?Take the paper with the stars and write “Jesus Cares for Us” at the top of it. Mount the page in a visible spot in your home such as the refrigerator. Encourage family members to write or draw an example next to a star of how they have experienced Jesus caring for them throughout the week.
How is Jesus like a life preserver? Find out as you make this reminder of today’s Key Verse on page 1202 of your Hands-On Bible™!

About FM Blog
Hello, my name is Rev. Bobby Cook and I am the Associate Pastor for Family Ministry. Family Ministry at Redland Baptist Church is a holistic and intergenerational approach to ministry. Leading the church to come alongside of parents to encourage, equip, and empower them to be the primary disciplers at home to reach this and future generations through the ministries of children, youth, and recreation.
This blog is one tool we use to pursue our purpose in Family Ministry for families to live out Deuteronomy 6:4-7. “Attention, Israel! God, our God! God the one and only! Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that’s in you, love him with all you’ve got! Write these commandments that I’ve given you today on your hearts. Get them inside of you and then get them inside your children. Talk about them wherever you are, sitting at home or walking in the street; talk about them from the time you get up in the morning to when you fall into bed at night.”
