The “Sunday School answer” is stereotypically Jesus, but the truth is that He is at the center of all things, in the Bible and in our lives. This lesson uses puzzles and pictures to demonstrate how we can step back and see the “big picture” significance of Christ. After His resurrection, Jesus came to His disciples and opened their eyes to understand that everything in Scripture and history led up to Him. Help children see how the Messiah is the “big picture answer” to our questions. He is the “missing piece” that satisfies and guides all things!

What’s the big idea? Sometimes we have a tendency to get caught up in smaller details and miss out on a broad scope of things. Sometimes we don’t understand the “big picture” God has for us, whether because of our own distraction or because God’s plans aren’t fully revealed. Stepping back helps us to see how essential the Resurrection is to our faith.  Jesus lived, died, and rose for us! All Old Testament prophecies and events lead up to Him, and all New Testament events spread His story. Jesus is always with us and will help us to understand when we lose our way.
