Children’s Sermon He is Risen! Bible Object Lesson for Easter Sunday on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Easter is (or should be) the pivotal holiday of the Christian faith. It celebrates the greatest event in history, Jesus is alive and now is a time of rejoicing! Aside from the fancy dresses, fun decorations, and baskets, though, what is it that we honor for Easter? Young children might not always have a solid understanding of the story behind God’s great plan for mankind. In this message, the story of Good Friday and Easter is told through a favorite seasonal treat, jelly beans. Use the colors of the candies to address various elements of the events that took place.
