January 8, 2023: God Promises to Restore (Isaiah 43:1-4, 10-12)

To begin the session:

Distribute copies of the “Fear-o-Phobia” exercise from the activity page, which you can download here. Have learners work in pairs to complete as indicated. As time allows, ask learners to talk about how faith can help people overcome their fears.

After the activity, say, “In today’s text, Isaiah shares promises God gave to Israel, and us, to help calm fears.”

To encourage personal application:

Distribute copies of the “God’s Protection” activity from the activity page. Have learners complete as indicated.

After the activity, read Isaiah 43:1, replacing the words “O Jacob” and “O Israel” with a pause. Ask learners to silently say their own names in place of the pause.
