Thoughts from a 5th Grade Sunday School


I have always thought the Sunday School kids we teach are pretty thoughtful and insightful but today they seemed to be in rare form. Maybe it was the donuts we gave them for snack. :-) As Steve was building the lesson for our Sunday school class, he began by asking the kids a few questions and the kids answered here and there but today two answers were just classic.
Steve asked them what a pagan was and one boy raised his hand and said, "A disgusting person!" We tried not to laugh but we both cracked up. Then Steve asked about the symbolism of the lamb in the Old Testament and asked the kids what the Israelites did with the lamb. Again, one boy(diiferent boy) raised his hand and said, "They lit it on fire!" Again, we couldn't contain ourselves. They were so funny and these were serious answers! We love our Sunday School kids!!!!
