All children in grades 1−6 meet for the Large Group assembly. To help the group gather before
class begins, you may play Video 9 or have them do a simple activity such as tossing spongy
balls.
Welcome (1 minute)
Hello to all of you! Today is the second lesson of our Superbook story, “He Is Risen!” How
wonderful to realize that Jesus, who never sinned even once, willingly paid the punishment for
everyone’s sins by dying on the cross. Let’s worship Him as we sing Follow Jesus.

Play Video 11: (Song) Follow Jesus (3 minutes)
Be sure to preview the song so you can sing along and do the motions with the children.
SuperTruth and Discussion (1 minute)
Our SuperTruth for today says, “Jesus fulfilled God’s plan of salvation by dying on the cross.”
What does the word “salvation” mean? Children answer. Salvation means to set free, to save,
to rescue or deliver.

Introduce Condensed Bible Story (1 minute)
If all children watched the Bible story video in the previous lesson, you may skip it here and go
straight to the Bible Background Video.
Does anyone remember how Chris treated his mother in our video last time? Children answer.
He was very disrespectful, wasn’t he! Now for the children who haven’t seen our Bible story
yet, we are going to watch a short version to see how Jesus obeyed God, even to the point
of death. For those of you who have seen the full video, watching this short version will help
refresh your memories!

Play Video 4: Condensed Bible Story (9 minutes)
Superbook takes Joy, Gizmo, Chris, and his mother to ancient Jerusalem. They witness Jesus’
prayer in the garden, His trial before Pontius Pilate, His death on the cross, and finally His
glorious resurrection.
Discussion (1 minute)
Why did Jesus pray in the garden? Children answer. Jesus wanted to have the strength to do
God’s will, not His own.

Introduce Bible Background Video (1 minute)
Now let’s watch our Bible Background Video and learn more about the events surrounding
Jesus’ death and resurrection. When Gizmo asks a question in the video, wait for him to
suggest some answers, then call out the one you think is right!

SuperVerse Discussion (1 minute)
Our SuperVerse from Psalm 22:16 says, They have pierced My hands and feet. King David
wrote this about 1,000 years before Jesus was born—yet this verse accurately predicted how
Jesus would be nailed to the cross! Let’s say our SuperVerse together. Children repeat verse.

Prayer and Send-Off (1 minute)
Dear God, Thank You for forgiving all our sins. We praise You for loving us so much that You
made a way for us to spend eternity with You! In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Today in Small Group, you’ll play a fun game about doing God’s will! Have a great time.

Game Time | Aim for God’s Will
Explore the Superbook story by playing a game of two “wills.”
You Will Need:
Before Class Begins:
• Make a copy of Aim for God’s Will Pattern: Page B1,
cut cards apart, and tape to containers.
• Arrange the containers as shown in the diagram,
with the one in the center representing God’s Will
and the others representing My Will.
• Crumple each sheet of construction paper into a
ball; then place one color of balls in one box and the
other color in the other box.
• Aim for God’s Will Pattern: Page B1.
• Six medium-size round containers—such as
waste baskets or beach buckets.
• Construction paper in two different colors—3
sheets of one color per child (or per team).
• Two boxes to hold the paper “balls.”
• Masking or painter’s tape.
• Mark or tape two lines and set up the game per the
illustration.
S
That was an amazing Bible story, wasn’t it! Jesus died on the cross for us and then rose
again from the dead to give us new life! Remember when Jesus was praying in the Garden of
Gethsemane? Why was He in such agony? Children answer. He had a big decision to make. He
could choose to keep on living His life, or He could choose to obey God and die on the cross to
pay the punishment for our sins. What did He choose to do? He chose to do God’s will. God the
Father didn’t force Jesus to die on the cross—Jesus willingly decided to obey God and give up
His life for us.
[
]
[
]
Does God force us to obey Him? No. Sometimes we choose to do what we want instead of what
God would want us to do. God created us and loves us, and He knows our future—so His will is
best for our lives. Let’s play a game where we aim for God’s will—represented by the container
in the middle. It’s not easy, though. Are you ready?
[
]
I
Divide the children into two teams. Give each team its own color of paper balls to throw. The
teams stand single-file behind the line, facing the group of containers. Teams play at the same
time. The first player of each team tosses three balls, aiming for the container in the center
representing “God’s Will,” rather than the surrounding containers, representing “My Will.” Each
time a ball goes into the “God’s Will” container, two points are scored. For every ball that goes
into a “My Will” container, a point is subtracted. Balls that don’t go into a container score zero
points. Play until each player has thrown three balls. Total all the points by counting up the
balls of each color in the containers; the team with the most points wins. Play more rounds if
time allows.
S
That was hard, wasn’t it? What did it take to hit the mark? Pay
close attention and focus. In real life, we all miss the mark, no
matter how hard we try.
[
My
Will

B
S
Read Romans 3:23: For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of
God’s glorious standard.
The only person who always hit the mark and obeyed God’s will
every time was Jesus. He chose God’s will even when it meant
dying on the cross—and because of that, we have forgiveness
when we miss the mark!

You Will Need:
Before Class Begins:
• Copy the Cross Pattern: Page A2 on cardstock for
children who missed Lesson 1.
• Use the marker to write “My Will” on one cup and
“God’s Will” on the other.
• Bible or the Superbook Bible app.

S
When Jesus prayed in the Garden before He was arrested, He said, “Father, if You are willing,
please take this _____ of suffering away from Me.” (Luke 22:42) What is the missing word?
(Hold up the cup saying “God’s Will.”) When Jesus talked about that cup, He meant suffering
and dying on the cross. (Hold up the cup saying “My Will.”) Jesus had to choose between God’s
will and His own will. (Read Mark 14:35−36:) He prayed that, if it were possible, the awful hour
awaiting Him might pass Him by. “Abba, Father,” He cried out, “everything is possible for You.
Please take this cup of suffering away from Me. Yet I want Your will to be done, not Mine.” What
was that last sentence? “I want Your will to be done, not Mine.”
[
]
Jesus was perfect and had never sinned, even once, so He had never felt the horrible feelings
of guilt and shame. As a human being, He must have dreaded the pain He would feel on the
cross. But even worse was that He would take the punishment and guilt for every sin ever
committed by every single human being! Jesus is the Son of God. He said in John 10:30, “The
Father and I are one.” And He knew that while He was carrying all of our sins on the cross, He
would be separated from His Loving Father in heaven.
(Hold up the cup saying “God’s Will.”) In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prayed that God’s
will—not His own will—would be done. Jesus chose what God wanted, not what He wanted.
Jesus demonstrated His love and obedience to God by laying down His own will in obedience to
God’s will. By doing this, He fulfilled God’s plan of salvation—dying on the cross so that our sins
would be forgiven. This is what our SuperTruth is all about today. Let’s say it together: “Jesus
fulfilled God’s plan of salvation by dying on the cross.”
When Jesus taught His disciples how to pray, part of His prayer said this: “May Your will be
done on earth, as it is in heaven.” (Matthew 6:10) How often do you think God’s will is done
in heaven? Children answer. God’s will is always done in heaven! On Earth, however, there
is a struggle. The devil may try to tempt us to resist God’s will and follow our own plan. And
because we are human, we are tempted by our own selfish desires to do what pleases us
instead of God. But when we ask for God’s help by praying, reading His Word, and obeying
His Spirit in our hearts, we have the grace to yield our own wills to His. (Put the “My Will” cup
inside the “God’s Will” cup.) With God’s help, our will can be His will!
[
]
Discipleship Challenge/Practical Application S
I
This reminds me of our Superbook challenge. Is anyone wearing your cross today? Children
answer. What happened when you prayed for God’s will to be done instead of your own will?
[
]
Allow time for children to share brief testimonies. Hand out the challenge materials to any
children who were absent for Lesson 1. Challenge the children to continue to place a priority
on praying for God’s will instead of their own each time they pray.

They have pierced My hands and feet. Psalm 22:16b
10 Minutes
You Will Need:
• Bibles or the Superbook Bible app.
I
S
Hand out Bibles and ask a volunteer to locate and read the SuperVerse.
Our SuperVerse today was written by David and accurately describes Jesus’ crucifixion and
death on the cross. What makes it truly amazing is that David wrote this long before crucifixion
was practiced, and about 1,000 years before Jesus was born!
Jesus lived without sin yet carried our sins on the cross and took the punishment for our sins.
This was God’s plan of salvation that Jesus fulfilled. Jesus’ hands and feet were nailed to the
cross. This was an incredibly painful way to suffer and die. Jesus shed His precious blood to
cover and wash away—forgive—our sins.
I
S
I
Have the children say the SuperVerse together.
Let’s pray. Thank You, Jesus, for willingly enduring the pain on the cross and sacrificing Your life
to fulfill God’s plan of salvation for us! In Your name, Amen.

5 Minutes
You Will Need:
• Bibles or the Superbook Bible app.
S
(Repeat the SuperTruth:) “Jesus fulfilled God’s plan of salvation by dying on the cross.”
(Have children look up Mark 14:33 – 41 in their Bibles.) In our Bible story, Jesus was troubled
about what was to take place next in God’s plan—His arrest, trial and crucifixion.
I
B
Optional: Have volunteers read aloud, one verse at a time. Mark 14:33–41:
v. 33: He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He became deeply troubled and distressed.
v. 34: He told them, “My soul is crushed with grief to the point of death. Stay here and keep
watch with Me.”
v. 35: He went on a little farther and fell to the ground. He prayed that, if it were possible, the
awful hour awaiting Him might pass Him by.
v. 36: “Abba, Father,” He cried out, “everything is possible for You. Please take this cup of
suffering away from Me. Yet I want Your will to be done, not Mine.”
v. 37: Then He returned and found the disciples asleep. He said to Peter, “Simon, are you
asleep? Couldn’t you watch with Me even one hour?”
v. 38: “Keep watch and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation. For the spirit is willing,
but the body is weak.”
v. 39: Then Jesus left them again and prayed the same prayer as before.
v. 40: When He returned to them again, He found them sleeping, for they couldn’t keep their
eyes open. And they didn’t know what to say.
v. 41: When He returned to them the third time, He said, “Go ahead and sleep. Have your rest.
But no—the time has come. The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.”
S
Jesus knew He would soon be betrayed, arrested, beaten, and put to death on the cross. He
took His closest disciples with Him to pray in the Garden of Gethsemane. What an opportunity
for these men to show their love and devotion to Jesus by being with Him to pray! Instead, the
Bible tells us that the disciples couldn’t stay awake! This must have deeply disappointed Jesus!
Have you ever wanted someone to “be there” and support you when you were going through
a trial or difficult time? I know I have! We have a wonderful opportunity to strengthen others
with our presence and prayers of support and encouragement.
Often when we face a difficult situation, the first thing we pray is something like, “Please God,
fix this or make this go away. (Smile.) I just want this to be over, NOW!” We are to pray for
God’s help and protection, as Jesus did in the verses we just read! But first and foremost, He
prayed for God’s will to be done! We always need to seek God’s will when we pray for ourselves
or someone else. In our challenge each week, we are learning to make God’s will our Number
One priority over our own will when we pray.

Small Group
He Is Risen! | Lesson 2
I
Encourage the children to find a place in the room where they can have a private prayer with
God. Encourage them to pray for a situation that they are facing or a decision they must make.
Ask the children to pray for God’s will over their own will. Encourage the children to then pray
for their families and other children in the room today. Stop by each child and offer a short
prayer of encouragement for them.
S
(Close with a group prayer:) Father God, please help us to always seek Your will in our lives.
Thank You, Jesus, for willingly coming from heaven to Earth to fulfill Father God’s plan of
salvation for us by living a sinless life and dying on the cross! In Your name we pray, Amen.

from the following alternative options.
Skit | Will or Will Not: Grades 1– 6
Demonstrate a tug-of-war between two wills.
10 Minutes
You Will Need:
Before Class Begins:
• Three actors to play “Child,” “My Will,” and
“God’s Will.” The two who play “God’s Will”
and “My Will” should be about equal in size.
The actor playing “Child” should be a good
reader.
• Select actors and give them the script to practice in
advance.
• In large letters, write “God’s Will” and “My Will” on
the two pieces of cardstock.
• Tape the “God’s Will” sign on one actor’s left shoulder.
• Marker.
• Tape the “My Will” sign on the other actor’s right
shoulder.
• Two pieces of cardstock.
• Duct or masking tape.
• Rope (about 6 feet).
• Chair.
I
Setting: Cue actors to enter the classroom but do not announce to the children. Place the chair
facing the children. The actor who plays Child comes in and sits down, looking very confused
and perplexed. The actors playing God’s Will and My Will walk in holding the rope between
them. They pull their rope tight and stand a couple feet behind the chair so that their signs
can be read by the children. The actors do not speak words but will make sounds of a physical
struggle during battle. God’s Will and My Will represent the struggle of wills inside Child’s
mind. They will move back and forth pulling and tugging, winning and losing ground as Child
deliberates what to do. Child talks aloud and is demonstrative with body movements and facial
expressions that represent the battle. Child pauses a few seconds between lines so God’s Will
and My Will can act out the struggle.
Optional: The teacher may read the all the lines while the children act them out.
Child: I don’t know what to do! I am SO confused! I want to watch that new TV
[
show so badly! (My Will slowly gains ground.)
]
[
But I know from reading the Bible that it is not a show I should watch. (God’s
]
Will slowly gains ground.)
[
But all the kids at school are allowed to watch it, so I should, too! Can it really
be that bad for me? I mean, my parents aren’t home tonight, who would
know? (My Will gains ground.)
]
(Heavy sigh.) I know who will see me—God! I know He would not be pleased
[
with some of the bad language in the show. (God’s Will gains ground.)
]
Well, I am older now and I should be able to watch what I want! (My Will gains
[
]
ground.)
[
But then, I know the Holy Spirit lives inside of me to help me make wise
choices and to stay strong against temptation. (God’s Will gains ground.)

He Is Risen! | Lesson 2
Maybe I can just watch part of it, and if I hear a bad word I will turn it off! Yes,
that would work! (My Will gains ground.)
]
(Child makes a disappointed face.) Now, why do I feel so bad inside after I
[
said that? I think I know my answer. That is the Holy Spirit warning me of
danger. I am going to follow God’s will, not mine! (God’s Will yanks and pulls
]
My Will completely out of the room. Child smiles and walks toward the door.)
Thank You, God, for giving me the strength to make the right choice and to
[
follow Your plan for my life!
S
]
Let’s clap for our actors! The actor who played the child had a tough decision to make! We all
have choices that we wrestle with each day. It’s not easy when it seems like everyone is doing
something we know we shouldn’t do. Just like in the Superbook video, Satan was speaking to
Judas to convince him to betray Jesus in the garden. Satan tries to tempt us and persuade us
to choose our will over God’s will. He wants us to make and follow our plans for our life, not the
plan God has for us! That was the intense struggle Jesus had when He prayed in the garden.
Jesus fulfilled God’s plan. He died on the cross and was resurrected. Jesus then left Earth but
sent us a Helper—God’s Holy Spirit. When we ask Jesus into our hearts, God puts His Holy Spirit
inside of us to strengthen us and help us make the right choices to follow God’s plan for our
lives.
Let’s say our SuperTruth together: “Jesus fulfilled God’s plan of salvation by dying on the
cross.”

He Is Risen! | Lesson 2
Game | Pour Out the Love: Grades 1– 6
Play an action game about God’s plan of love.
15 Minutes
You Will Need:
Before Class Begins:
• Bibles or the Superbook Bible app.
• Place six marbles each in two cups.
• Four small plastic cups.
• Twelve marbles.
• One bucket.
S
We have been discussing how Jesus prayed to God in the Garden of Gethsemane. Jesus called
God’s will a “cup of suffering.” That cup represented all that Jesus was about to go through to
fulfill God’s plan for His life. By this plan, God poured out His love on us. That is what this game
is about!
I
Divide the class into two teams that stand facing each other with about 4–6 feet between
them. Each team forms a line with their players standing shoulder to shoulder but not touching
each other. Place the bucket at the end of both lines, where the last player of each team can
reach it. Hand the first player of each team the cup containing marbles. Hand an empty cup
to the second player of each team—next to the player with the marbles. The first player must
pour the marbles from the cup into the second player’s empty cup. The first player then hands
the empty cup to the third player. The second player pours the cup of marbles into the third
player’s empty cup and hands the empty cup to the fourth player. Both teams continue in this
fashion until all players have played and the last player pours all the marbles into the bucket.
S
B
You are all winners! That’s because Jesus pours His love into our hearts. Luke tells us this
about Jesus’ last meal with the disciples.
Read Luke 22:20: After supper He took another cup of wine and said, “This cup is the new
covenant between God and His people—an agreement confirmed with My blood, which is
poured out as a sacrifice for you.”
S
God pours His love into us; and Jesus willingly sacrificed His life so that our sins could be
forgiven and we could live with Him for eternity—this was God’s plan of salvation! Let me read
to you what the Bible says about this.
B
Read Romans 5:5− 8 NKJV: Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been
poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. For when we were still without
strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die;
yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own
love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
S
Those are powerful words, aren’t they? Did you hear the part that said, The love of God has
been poured out in our hearts? Yes, God loves us more than we can ever understand; so much
that He sent His only Son to die for us. That was God’s plan that Jesus fulfilled!

15 Minutes
You Will Need:
Before Class Begins:
• Bibles or the Superbook Bible app.
• Copy the King of Kings Cross Pattern: Page B2, one
for each child.
• King of Kings Cross Pattern: Page B2.
• Pencils.
I
Provide a cross handout and pencil to each child. Do you remember the part of the Bible story
video when the soldier fastened the sign on the cross as ordered by Pilate? The sign was
written in three different languages: Greek, Hebrew and Latin. These were common languages
in that part of the world. The sign said: “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.”
S
We are going to fill in the blank lines at the bottom of the cross. But, first I want us to look
up some Bible verses to give us a hint at what we should write on those lines. Please look up
Philippians 2:8–11. (Divide the verses among four children to read aloud:)
B
v. 8: He humbled Himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross.
v. 9: Therefore, God elevated Him to the place of highest honor and gave Him the name above
all other names
v. 10: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the
earth,
v. 11: and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
S
These verses show Jesus’ love and respect for God and His will for Jesus’ life. Because of this,
God honored Jesus by placing His name above all names in both heaven and Earth. Every
single person will bow to Jesus for all eternity! That means forever and ever!
B
S
Choose a child to read Revelation 19:16: On His robe at His thigh was written this title: King of
all kings and Lord of all lords.
Wow, that is bigger than what Pilate wrote on the sign, wasn’t it? Not just King of the Jews but
king of what? King of kings, Lord of lords. Now, does anyone have an idea of what we should
write on our cross? King of kings, Lord of lords. Yes! Let’s go ahead and do that right now!
[

I
S
]
Children fill in the blank lines on their cross with “Jesus: King of kings and Lord of lords.”
Yes, Jesus fulfilled God’s plan of salvation by dying on the cross, and then He rose from the
dead to reign as King of kings and Lord of lords for all eternity!
Let’s pray right now: Dear Lord Jesus, we worship You because You are the King of kings and
Lord of lords. You are more powerful than anything else in the universe—even the power of
death! Please give us Your power to choose God’s will above our own will. In Your name, Amen.
