Christmas movies have a way of changing the way you look not only about Christmas but also about life as we see characters on the screen transform from unbelief to belief, from stingy to generous, or from cold-hearted to compassionate. For the month of December, we’re taking a quote from one of those famous movie lines and “Triple-Dog-Daring” kids to show compassion to the people around them and even across the world.
We define compassion like this: caring enough to do something about someone else’s need. But when it comes to compassion, no movie even comes close to the greatest story of all time, THE Christmas story. The Christmas story can really be summed up in one verse of Scripture. And this is the verse that we want every child to memorize this month and carry with them the rest of their lives. It’s found in John 3:16: “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son. Anyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life” (NIrV).
If you look at the Christmas story, it’s easy to see that one aspect of God’s character is compassion. God saw our greatest need, and He met it in the most remarkable way. To get kids thinking more about this we’re taking the entire Christmas season to talk about compassion and ask a different question each week to get our CITY and ALLEY kids and families thinking about how they can show compassion this Christmas.

As God’s Son, Jesus deserved a palace with a throne, complete with servants waiting on His every need or desire. Yet for Jesus, it wasn’t about the lap of luxury or the fame. Jesus came for a different reason. He came to save us, and He focused His attention on serving, not being served. That is why in November we will be focusing on service: lending a hand to help someone else.
All month we will lean into God’s heart and discover what it means to reflect His character to the world around us. Our hope is that our CITY and ALLEY kids will soon discover something more about service. It’s not just what people do for us, but rather what we need to be doing for the people around us.
That’s why our memory verse this month is Matthew 5:16, “Let your light shine so others can see it. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will bring glory to your Father who is in heaven.” The purpose of serving others isn’t so people will see how good you are. Rather, when you serve others, they see a reflection of God, which brings glory to Him.
God is up to something big in this world, and the amazing thing is that He wants us to be part of it. This month as we learn what it means to lend a hand and serve others, we pray kids are inspired to use what they have to join in the work God is doing and make a difference in the world!

God is the only god. God is one of a kind with no beginning and no end. And everything God has created is unique and one of a kind. Each animal is not only different from other species, but also different from other like animals. No zebra has the exact same patterns of stripes. Each monkey has its own temperament. Each sparrow sings a slightly different tune. The same is true for people. God made each person one of a kind—even identical twins have unique fingerprints! That’s why we will focus on Individuality this month. Individuality is discovering who you are meant to be so you can make a difference!
All month we will be following the life of Timothy. We will do a little digging in the book of Acts so we can piece together a pretty remarkable story about a young man who discovered his unique God-given potential and did some amazing things! Our hope this month is that your child will begin to understand that God made them and has given them unique abilities to love and to serve others. Figuring out their gifts will have a lasting impact—not only because of what they accomplish right now, but because they are establishing a way of living that can change the course of their story!
