This lesson and Magnetic Board Visuals were written by Cathy Whitacre.
This is intended for older students, but can easily be adapted for younger students.
Cathy loved to teach with Magnetic Board Visuals! But, magnets are not the only way to use them. You can hold them and lay them down as you teach each point. Or, use Velcro and add them to a tri-fold foam project board. These are slightly different. Cathy used crowns for each visual, so I did too. But, I used a lot of scriptures and to make it easier for the teacher and the students, I added a tab on the bottom with the scriptures. These can be used as-is; or you can cut the scripture tabs off. Add the number on the back and hand them out so the students take turns reading and they have their scripture in front of them.
The Venn worksheet: With Jesus in the center and being the King of Kings, discuss
earthly kingdoms vs. heavenly kingdom. Discuss the power of kings verses THE
King of kings. They are intentionally left blank for whatever you decide to discuss.
Students can even write a couple of verses to describe what the Bible tells us
about earthly kingdoms/kings and heavenly kingdoms/Jesus.
