Aslan and Jesus


We just finished reading the Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe. Aslan made a huge sacrifice without complaining- and we connected that to Jesus, our saviour.

I want you to tell me why Aslan had to die. Tell me why Jesus had to die. The explain both of their deaths- where did they die, who killed them, what were the people saying?


Then explain to me what happened after Aslan and Jesus were dead? Why did this happen, and why are we SO thankful to GOd that this happened to Jesus??

What makes you say "God is AWESOME" today?


The weather is slowly changing, the birds are slowing coming out, the grass is slowly emerging! The beauty of the changing seasons is slowly coming upon us!

We just got finished reading about Narnia who never gets SPRING! Spring should always remind you of God's power!

We noticed in math how all of the numbers line up, are in perfect order, and everything works out perfectly. We read about the human body, and how God made every organ, system, and muscle to work together perfectly. God has everything planned out before time, he knows what you are going to have for supper tonight!

How cool!Tell me what makes you in AWE of God today.......
