Object Lesson: The Rocks Cry Out

Object Lesson: The Rocks Cry Out

Object Lesson: The Rocks Cry Out
Another great object lesson idea from children’s ministry veteran Tina Houser

 

Tina HouserLuke 19:40And He answered and said, I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out!

An often-overlooked part of the Palm Sunday story is when the Pharisees approached Jesus. They insisted that Jesus reprimand the people from expressing their praises for Him as He enters Jerusalem. Its almost as though the praises that nature wanted to sing out were being vented through the voices of the people. If those people were forbidden to praise the Son of God, then the rocks would absolutely burst as their praises built up.

Heres an idea thats not included inEaster-rific! It will give an idea of what youll find in this collection.

Science Experiment

Youll need to gather
hydrogen peroxide (20 vol.)
rocks
clear vase
liquid dish soap
packet of yeast
warm water
custard dish
funnel
food coloring (optional)

Pour cup of hydrogen peroxide in the vase. (Optional: put 10 drops of food coloring in the peroxide.) Then add three squirts of the liquid dish soap (about 3 T.) Swirl this around in the vase to mix it thoroughly. Carefully, place some clean rocks in the bottom of a clear vase, just enough to cover the bottom. In a custard cup, place 3 T. of warm water and the packet of yeast. Stir to dissolve and let sit for one minute.

In the meantime, ask the children to tell you things that the rocks might cry out if people did not praise Jesus. What would burst from them? What would their praises be? The rocks in our vase are about to burst forth with their praises!

Now pour the yeast mixture into the vase. (If the vase has a small opening, youll want to use the funnel; otherwise, just pour the yeast in.) Step back and watch the praises flow!
