Lions: Our Story Continues…
Our Story Continues is our way to connect parents to what kids are talking about and experiencing in the Sunday morning teaching. We want to help to equip parents and spiritual parents with Scripture, talking points, and experiential activities to continue to disciple their kids well every day of the week.

Series: Daniel & Matthew | Kingdom
Big Idea: In God’s kingdom, we have nothing to fear.
God Story: Daniel 6 | Daniel and the Lion’s Den
Key Verse: And he was given authority, glory and a kingdom. People of all nations, no matter what language they spoke, worshiped him. His authority will last forever. | Daniel 7:14
- READ Daniel 6:10. Ask: What was happening in the story? Why do you think Daniel did this? Do you think it would have been difficult to do that if you were Daniel?
- WATCH the video teaching below with your family this week. Talk about the video as a family. What stood out to you? What did you like? What did you want to ask a question about? (Tip: If it’s helpful, consider pausing the video as you watch it together, and ask questions or talk about things that stick out to you as you go!)
- CHALLENGE Is there a fear that you want to try to face this week? As a family, pray about it and consider what God is saying to you about it.
