Teach kids how God helps us to overcome the bad guys in our lives.

Kids will learn how to avoid the mistakes these bad guys made as well as stand against the villains that still attack us today.  Kids may not face actual bad guys, but the temptations that come from selfishness and peer pressure still require God's help to take down.

Bad Guys of the Bible Lessons Overview:

Memory Verse: 

"Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction." Psalm 1:5-6 (NIV)

Lessons:

The Snake- The snake allowed Satan to tempt Adam and Eve, and he was cursed along with them. If we do not stand up to evil, we are just as guilty as the ones who commit evil.

Pharaoh- Pharaoh fought God and God won. We cannot win a power struggle with God. God will always win, no matter how stubborn we are.

Goliath- God is bigger and stronger than any giant we may face. If we keep ours eyes on God and not on the giant, God will give us victory.

Ahab and Jezebel- Ahab was a bad guy; Jezebel made him even badder. Bad company corrupts us. If we do not choose our friends wisely, we will find ourselves in trouble.

Saul- The #1 enemy of Christianity came face to face with Jesus - and changed sides. Saul’s transformation into Paul reminds us no bad guy is so bad they can’t be redeemed!

The “Big Bad”- Revelation warns of one more bad guy who is coming. He won’t come with horns and an evil grin, but with a smile and a smooth tongue. We need to be careful of false teachers of all kinds, and the best defense is a strong relationship with Jesus.
