FAMILY DISCUSSION STARTERS
Deuteronomy 6:4
According to the verse, how many Gods are there?
Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14
According to these verses, how many persons are there in God?
There is only one God, but He is three different persons. Christians usually call this the Trinity.
Genesis 1:1, John 1:3, Colossians 1:16
What do each of these verses tell us about God?
God is the Creator of everything. He works in His creation. He is close to us! But He is not part of His creation. For example, God is not in a tree or a rock or a plant.
As a family, spend some time thanking God for who He is.
