Joshua and the Spies
| Category | Spiritual Development |
| Resource Owner | Compassion International |
The lesson “Joshua and the Spies” teaches children about the importance of looking through the eyes of faith as they hear about the story of Joshua and Caleb disagreeing with the other spies in The Promised Land. The children will pledge to be more faithful in their own lives, rather than depend on looking through their human eyes. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 23rd lesson in the 1st Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “God is With Us” unit.
