GO RISK!

Esther risks her life for God's people (Esther 4-7)
Bible Memory: Joshua 1:9

Dear Parent or Guardian,

Today your child learned that Esther risked her life in order to save the lives of her people. In response to today's Bible story, the kids were introduced to ways they could "GO RISK" for God. Talk to your child about talking risks and emphasize the fact that Esther asked others to fast and pray with her before taking any risks. How about that! Let your child to know your help will be there with any risks your child has chosen to do every single day.



Ask your child these question to review today's story.
  • What does it mean to take a risk? (to do something that is not always easy; do something when you don't always know what might happen)
  • How did Esther take a risk for God? (She put herself in a position where she might be killed)
  • What did Esther, Mordecai, and all the Jews do before Esther went to talk to the king? (fasted for three days)
  • What might happen because you decide to take a risk for God? (People might come to know Jesus and become followers of Him)
