What does it mean to imitate Jesus? How can we be more like Him? This lesson focuses on the incarnation and humility of Christ, described by Philippians 2. As Christians, we will never be fully perfect like Jesus was, but we can still strive to live in humble service as He did. Use the concept of copying and imitating to help kids understand what it means to live after the example of our Savior.
Living like Christ is a tall order, and can seem intimidating or impossible. This passage encourages us to serve others, but even more than that, shows how much Jesus did and does for us. He was God, but did not cling to His divine privileges, choosing to empty Himself and live with us. He came to love and serve us. Jesus gave the ultimate demonstration of humility. In love and gratitude to Him, we put others first because He put us first.
Passage: Philippians 2:1-18
