The Bible is full of incredible stories of people's unwavering faith in God. Daniel's life is an incredible testimony to the power of faith even when faced with deadly situations, such as being thrown into a den of hungry lions. I love getting to open God's word and teach kids about our amazing God. Daniel 6 is a chapter filled with action and invaluable lessons for us all about faith and God's heart for redemption. These crafts will provide some hands-on activities that you can add into your Daniel and the Lions' Den Bible lesson. Find more Daniel and the Lions' Den ideas for home or Sunday School here.
The faith that Daniel exhibited in Daniel 6 is incredible and should be an encouragement to us all that God is always with us. Even when faced with a frightening situation, Daniel chose to trust in God. The verse, Psalm 56:3-4, on this self-adhesive "Dare To Be Like Daniel" Craft Kit is a wonderful verse for kids to hide in their heart so that when they are afraid they can remember to put their trust in God.
