Just realized how late it is. I have been working on a video for Nick (my oldest son) who is getting married this Saturday, May 7. I am so blessed to have four children and this Saturday they will all be married (YEAH!). Thought I had better go ahead and send this letter now because I know the rest of the week will get away from me.
This week we concluded our series on the Law and the Prophets. The Messianic prophecy of Jesus in Isaiah 52 and 53 served as our text for this lesson. We learned that the Messiah would come in obscurity (Isaiah 53:2), no one would come to his defense (Isaiah 53:8a), and he would take the punishment for our sin (Isaiah 53:4-6).
I’d encourage you to take time this week to talk with your teen about the four-week series we just finished. Here are some specific questions tied to this week’s lesson:
• Why do you think God wanted the Messiah to be born in obscurity to an average” family?
• How does the hope of Jesus’ return give you hope today?
• How can we as a family celebrate the hope we have in Jesus and our thankfulness that he paid the price for our sins?
I trust this has been a challenging and growing series for your teenager. Feel free to call or email me if you have any questions or any prayer requests. Have a great day!
