The Gospel Project for Kids: Older Kids Leader Guide - Volume 4: Foolishness and Wisdom

Summer 2025 - Volume 4: Foolishness and Wisdom

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10a). The Israelites, however, let their fear of nearby nations control their hearts. God granted their foolish desire for an earthly king. The fulfillment of this request would impact the generations to come. The people would ultimately cry out once again for a good, righteous, and just king to save them, but this time God would send the eternal King, His Son, Jesus.

The Older Kids Leader Guide features easy-to-use, low-prep lesson plans that teach older kids (about grades 4–6) about the gospel of Jesus Christ in an age-appropriate manner. Order one per leader.
