Welcome to SLAM Online!
Stewardship begins with Obedience, continues with Generosity, and ultimately leads to Sacrifice. Sacrifice is not something many people are really familiar with. Sacrifice does not ask, “What is required of me?” like Obedience does. It doesn’t ask, “How much can I give?” like Generosity does. Sacrifice asks, “How much can I give up?” In other words, “How much can I do without in order to meet the needs of others.”
In this lesson, the children will learn through the story of the widow’s sacrifice. They will learn how to to move up to the level of Sacrifice - giving up what we need so others can have what they need. Jesus was the prime example of Sacrifice. Our goal is to have the same attitude as Jesus - one that puts ME last and the Kingdom of God FIRST!
