Church is Where I Learn About God!

This week was week 3 of our 8 week series of Treasure Quest, where each Sunday we learn important things about who Jesus is and what He taught us. We are also following Kit Windswept and her assistant Andi as they search for the treasure. This week Kit and Andi’s journey got off to a rocky start today when Andi unwittingly took a bite of a fruit that takes away a person’s voice. Soon after, the two discovered the “Knowledge Stone” and its puzzle. Normally, Andi was the one who explained the Bible story and solved the puzzle, but without a voice it was impossible. For the first time on this journey, Kit had to read the Bible story and solve the puzzle.

The Bible story this week is found in Luke chapter 2 and it tells a story about Jesus when he was 12 years old. Jesus and His family had traveled to Jerusalem for the Passover festival. When the festival ended, the family started traveling back home. Jesus’ parents thought that He was with the rest of the group, but it turns out that He wasn’t. They didn’t know where Jesus was. Eventually His parents headed back to Jerusalem and looked all over the city for three days. They finally found Jesus at the temple sitting with the religious leaders, asking them questions. He was learning about God. He explained to His parents that he was supposed to be there. Jesus showed us that it is important to learn about God, and church is where we can accomplish that. Eventually, Andi’s voice returned and they set out on the rest of their journey.
