The Bursting Balloon

Object Lesson on Sharing Your Faith

 

 

Materials Needed: A Balloon

 

Begin blowing the balloon up.  When its about half way full, begin asking, “Do you think it can take more air?”

 

As the answer continues to be “Yes” continue blowing the balloon up. Keep blowing the balloon up until it pops.

 

Ask “What happened? Why did the balloon pop?”

 

The answer is because there was too much air.

 

The only way more air can be put into the balloon is by letting some of the air out every so often.

 

 

Lesson: We get so much of Jesus put in us when we come to church, and that is a really good thing.  What is not so good is when we don’t let some of the Jesus in us out every once in a while.  How do we let some of Jesus out?  We tell our friends about Jesus and share Him with others.

 

Mark 16:15 ESV

“And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”
