POWERSOURCE ASK GOD:
1. How to keep Easter truths close to your family’s heart throughout the year as you focus on spiritual growth.
2. For guidance in ensuring your kids understand Easter is about Jesus.
3. For your heart to be refreshed in receiving Jesus’ love.
Guiding Your Children’s Faith Discoveries
As you read through the Gospels, one of the most prominent aspects of Jesus’ ministry is his teaching through parables. With great patience, he took time to put what he was teaching into terms his audience could easily understand. He kept it relevant and relatable. He made lofty, hard-to-wrap-your-head-around spiritual truths easier to comprehend—and people grew closer to him and God because of it. Jesus helped guide their faith discov-eries so what they learned was cemented in their hearts and minds —because they made the discoveries for themselves. Take a moment to think about your personal faith discoveries. Which do you remember most vividly—and why? Like Jesus, you can help your kids to grasp some big spiritual concepts and truly own their faith. Stay connected to their world and the things they’re interested in. Then, watch for opportunities to draw spiritual parallels be-tween events and aspects of their lives to guide their discoveries about God. When you help your kids engage God in their daily lives (not just at church), you pave the way for genuine spiritual maturity that’ll stick with them into adulthood.

Reasons to Volunteer
If you are a parent and you are not presently serving in the body of Christ @ HBC, there is always room for one more in our Children’s Ministry. We would love to give you an opportunity to enjoy being a Christian even more… by Serving The Shepherd and Loving His Lambs!
According to a recent survey of people who volunteer…
68% say it makes them feel physically healthier 73% say it lowers their stress level 92% say it enriches their sense of purpose in life!

MEDIA MADNESS
MOVIES Title: Oz the Great and Power-ful (Releases 3/8/2013) Genre: Fantasy/Action/Adventure Rating: PG
Cast: James Franco, Michelle Williams, Rachel Weisz, Mila Kunis Synopsis: A prequel to the ad-venture of beloved Dorothy from Kansas in the classic Wizard of Oz. Our Take: Though Disney pro-duced this movie, the trailers reveal dark and scary elements that may frighten young children, as well as some sensuality. Rat-ing details include “scary images and brief, mild language.” If pos-sible, preview (or have a friend pre-view) this movie.
BOOKS Title: The Donkey Who Carried a King
Author: R.C. Sproul
Publisher: Reformation Trust Publishing (2012) Summary: A young boy, hurt by always being picked last for games at school, learns the most important lesson of all from the donkey who carried Jesus into Jerusalem.
Our Take: Sproul offers a unique and age-appropriate angle on Jesus’ arrival into Jerusalem, his crucifixion, and his return after death. A contem-plative book for the family to read together on Easter—or any other day. Best for ages 7 to 11.
