THIS SUNDAY IN BIBLE SCHOOL

God Reveals His Goodness to the Jews

Passage: Ezra 7–10
Principle: Believers repent when they see God’s goodness and their sin.

Ask your child these questions:

How did God reveal His goodness to Ezra?
What attributes of God are found in Ezra’s prayer?

Help your child apply these truths in the following ways:

By studying, obeying, and teaching God’s Word.
By confessing their sin and changing their actions.
