The students learned that they weren’t created by accident or happenstance, but they were fearfully and wonderfully made by God. Specifically, we used the example of the world’s largest LEGO set. The replica of the London Tower bridge took 5.8 million L...

 Objective -  Students will understand that all people are made in the image of God and will choose to value their own life and the lives of others the way God values life.   Key Scripture -   Genesis 1:27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.   Lesson Summary - Today's lesson was the first lesson in a four-part series called Made: In the Image of God.
