Object Lesson Idea
Sorry I'm so late posting this. We do a different Reformation lesson every year as a break from our rotations. One year, we had a visit from "Martin" himself. Last year we passed out Bibles in various languages EXCEPT in English and asked children to read passages. When they couldn't, the leader said, "That's okay. I can tell you what it says." She then proceeded to make up ridiculous statements, like, "It says you should stand on one foot, hop, and cluck like a chicken." After a few laughs, we talked about how important it is to read Scripture for ouselves, and how a large part of the Reformation was getting the Bible into the hands of the people so they could read about God's grace for themselves.
