JESUS HELPS THOMAS WITH DOUBTS
Main Point: Jesus is real!
Summary: The disciples tell Thomas they saw Jesus – ALIVE – after he’d died! Thomas doesn’t believe them. He says he needs to see and feel Jesus’ wounds to confirm that Jesus is real. Jesus appears, and Thomas believes. Even though we can’t see Jesus, we can trust that Jesus is real.

Family Dinner Discussion: Why do you believe Jesus is real?
Continue the lesson throughout the week: Find objects that remind you that Jesus is real. For example.

- A Mirror – Jesus lives in you! The way you live can show Jesus to others.
- A Closet Light – The bulb lights up a dark closet. Jesus lights up the darkness in our lives.
- Soap – Jesus washes away our sins.
