Explanation
This Bible take-home bag was inspired by Young Children and Worship which combined the Parable of the Lost Sheep, Psalm 23, and the Good Shepherd of John 10 into one cohesive story. Without the storytelling kit, this bag would be pretty bland — three of the books have the same text! But I’m hopeful that being able to act out the story will up the fun quotient.
