Social media, entertainment, relationships and pop culture can influence who or what we follow. Take some time to talk through some of the messages your kids hear from these sources, and compare and contrast them with the truth of God’s Word.
Do these people, ideas or messages line up with the message of Jesus?
Do they help or hinder you from following Jesus?
What negative influences can be replaced by positive ones? What are they?

Play a game of Follow the Leader. Explain how important it is to not only follow people who are following Jesus but also to lead people in the ways of Jesus, yourself. Read the words of Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:31-11:1 and discuss them as a family.
Find
This week’s verse is in the book of Matthew. Help your child find the book of Matthew. Is this book in the Old or New Testament? How many chapters are there?
Create
For a long time, Christianity has been represented by the symbol of a fish. Encourage your child to paint, draw, sculpt or even create a mosaic to remind your family of Jesus’ desire to make us “fishers of men.”
