TOGETHER IN JESUS: FIRST RECONCILIATION:  In our lesson today, we are going to read a bible story about a man named Moses. First, we need to understand what was going on at the time of the story. Long ago, even before Jesus' time, God helped a man named Moses lead a group of slaves out of a land called Egypt. Slaves are people that are owned by others and have no rights or freedom. God wanted these slaves to become God's people and live together happily, but from the beginning, they had trouble. Let's turn to page 2 in your "Together in Jesus Lesson 2," and read the story "Slaves Become God's Own People." You will see that the story is set up as a play, so if you want to have your family take part in it, that would be great. You can also read all the parts yourself as well. Once you have finished the reading, please answer the questions below.
What worries or troubles do the people have? *
What problems does Moses have with the people? *
What do we call the rules that God gave to Moses and his people? *
You are a Superstar!! In this bible story, we learn that God gave Moses' people rules to live by. These rules are more than just a bunch of "do's and dont's," the Ten Commandments are God's loving guidelines for living a safe and happy life. By following them, we grow closer to God and to one another. Imagine how much happier Moses' people would have been if they had followed these rules on their journey. Abner would not have threatened to kill Reuben, Rebecca wouldn't have lied about her goat, and Dan would not have threatened people when they came near his goats. The Ten Commandments help you to learn right from wrong and guide you to make loving choices. 
Super great job! I want you to remember that "Reconciliation is a Celebration." It is a celebration of God's power to make all things new for us!! We will continue to learn more about this celebration as we continue our lessons!
