Made for Each Other (Ephesians 4:1-16) Sunday School Lesson & Activities for Kids PDF

God gives us special gifts and talents, and wants us to use them to bless others and serve Him. Ephesians 4 reminds us that God unites us and gives us abilities to use together with His church body. This lesson uses presents to illustrate the importance of our spiritual gifts. The Lord provides us with the tools we need to work wisely with each other. Encourage children to discover, embrace, and use their unique gifts to serve one another and the Lord. 

God gives us good things out of His abundant grace. We are not merely forced into following Him and serving with our gifts, but we can use our abilities to His glory. God wants us to work together as part of His body. We are called to one united faith with our fellow believers, and we can join together to build one another up in love. The Holy Spirit equips and enables us to speak encouraging words and to use our gifts for Him.
