To begin the session:
Distribute the “Baby Gifts” exercise from the activity pages, which you can download here. Have learners complete it individually in a minute or less before discussing conclusions as a whole class.
Say, “As we study today’s lesson, consider how the baby announcement and gifts reveal the child’s importance to the gift-givers and gift-receivers.”
To encourage personal application:
Distribute copies of the “Faith in Action” activity from the activity page. Have learners complete it individually in a minute or less before discussing conclusions in small groups. Challenge them to complete the first step of the activity during class, then complete the rest of the activity throughout the upcoming week. Give individuals the opportunity to share about this experience at the beginning of the next class time.
