items onto their construction paper in the following order:
● Deborah: Prophet and Judge at the top
● Palm Tree in the middle and Deborah sitting under the tree ● Big Idea and memory verse at the bottom of the paper.
● As they work, read part of Deborah’s story from Judges 4:1-9. Remind the kids that God chose Deborah to lead the people to victory even though women weren’t seen as leaders back then. God wants to use young people, too!
