Jesus in His Hometown

Read page 186 in The Peace Table or Luke 4:14–30. Talk about times when you’ve felt left out or treated unfairly. Pray “help me” prayers. Stand in the doorway of your house and ask God to help each person as they go to work, school, church, or other places this week. Make “good news” scrolls. Have each person make a paper scroll, writing or drawing a “good news” message (“God loves you,” a heart, or something similar) in the middle. Mix up the scrolls and have each person choose one to keep this week as a reminder of God’s love.
