Fear Factor - Sunday School Version
My youth group kids (5-8 grade) are having a "Fear Factor" day, where they're going to play gross games and all that. When I mentioned this to them, the one boy said, "Cool - can we do a zip line across the Mississippi River?" All the girls said, "Gross! I refuse to eat any bugs or body parts whatsoever!" Scout told me she would absolutely not eat grasshoppers, which got me to thinking - John the Baptist ate locusts and wild honey. We could do this as a Bible theme and get all of our ideas from Bible stories (the Bible has some pretty nasty stuff in there). I dropped the idea when my husband said, "Sure - one of the kids could be Shadrach, and stand in the middle of a fire."

my girls took this a step further -
erma: we could cut off someone's head and serve it on a platter
scout: or we could get a slingshot and throw rocks at really tall people
at least they know their Bible stories...
Josh wants to walk across the Red Sea!
yeah, i was impressed with their ideas! ;)
i like the slingshot/tall people idea
(i don't count as really tall, do i?)
no, you're tall, but not really tall.
phewph
does 6'2" count as really tall?
probably. 6'3" definitely is.
why, who's 6'2"?
grrr, then yes, that qualifies as really tall ;)
are you saying scout should throw rocks at him? that might be an idea...
yeah, i thought so :D
yup - scout should throw rocks at him.
i can't see her throwing rocks at him just because, but she might do it for sunday school fear factor. busymommy's kids like throwing rocks though. we could tell them he's a duck.
:)
