Faith Over Fear – Day Two


Day 2 – God is Bigger than our Hard Times

The Book of Ruth
Welcome back to Day Two! Today we meet Ruth and Naomi when they were having a hard time. They have lost their husbands and moved towns with no one to are for them. But God was with them and lead them to Boaz’s field. In the end Ruth became the Great, Great, Great (many times) Grandma to Jesus! God took her hard times and used them for good!

FAITH OVER FEAR!

This is a virtual opportunity for you, your children, grandchildren or families to explore some resources available online for free to help you build a strong foundation in Christ and remember that GOD IS BIGGER.

Each day you will find a new story adapted from the Bible into video from different churches on YouTube.  And a video of some of our favourite camp songs led by one of our incredible volunteers Melissa Maeck – Rolston, including actions! You’ll then find a discussion option as well as some activities to enjoy God’s word in fun ways, in your time.  Lastly,  you will also find a VBS song from our past camps.  From July 6 -10th, each day a new slate of resources will be available!  Feel free to join us each day or use the resources throughout the summer and do one per week! Whatever fits best with your family and your schedule.

Our hope is that this is a time for you to explore, experiment and enjoy God’s work, and it’s just a click away!

(& p.s. – if you are a person who likes to have a paper copy guide of each day – you will find that at the bottom in a printable PDF)

TODAY’S SONG

WATCH THE STORY

Conversation!

COVID – 19 has brought a lot of hard times to our lives. Staying home all the time, lack of entertainment, closed playgrounds, cancelled camps and sports. But stay encouraged God is near and using this time of challenge and creating good!

Sometimes during hard times we focus on the hard instead of the good. Today, why not try to add gratitude to your thinking. Thank God for the sunshine, for Netflix, for yummy snacks. Whatever you can think of, look for the good! If you’d like create a journal or place on your fridge or a whiteboard to daily track God’s Goodness.
