Lesson Description

A man named Philip was a leader in the early church. He often went from place to place telling people that Jesus was God’s Son. For a time Philip was in Samaria telling people there about the Lord. Then through an angel, God directed him to travel south on a desert road that went down from Jerusalem to Gaza. He obeyed, and as he traveled on that road he met an Ethiopian official who was in his chariot traveling back from worshiping in Jerusalem. The official was reading from Isaiah’s prophecies in the Old Testament but did not understand what he was reading. Philip explained that he was reading Scripture that spoke directly about Jesus, even though it had been written hundreds of years before. Philip told the man that by believing in Jesus, people can receive forgiveness of sins and eternal life. The man became a believer that day and was baptized. Philip’s experience gives us just one example of how the people in the early church told others about God’s Son Jesus Christ—something we who love Jesus need to do in our day as well. The People in the Church Shared About Jesus Bible lesson for older preschoolers is about Philip’s encounter with the Ethiopian Eunuch and teaches that I can tell others about Jesus.
