In my experience, anytime someone on social media mentions Jonah and the whale, there’s always someone in the comments arguing that the Bible never says whale.

Except it does in some translations, including one of the most popular translations of all time, the King James Version.

Let’s explore what the Bible says, what it means, and whether or not Jonah was swallowed by a whale or by a big fish or other sea creature 🏊‍♂️🐋

So many stories in the Bible have a water element, and if you want to add a fun effect to your Bible lesson try using a spray bottle!

As you teach your lesson, walk past some of the students and spray a little water in their direction when you get to parts about water. The excitement of not knowing when they'll get sprayed will help hold their attention, and feeling the water will help cement the story into their minds.

TIPS:

-Use a clean spray bottle that has only ever held water. Do NOT use bottles that have previously held cleaning solutions or other chemicals that could cause irritation or harm.

-Have a "No Splash Zone" in your classroom. Some students may not want to get wet and they shouldn't have to worry about it. Let them choose, and honor that choice. Do NOT, even jokingly, spray the "no splash zone" kids.

-Don't soak the kids with water. Set the nozzle to mist and only do a few sprays per section.

-Don't use water near open Bibles.

Have you used water in any of your lessons? How did it go? What tips do you have for other teachers?

Sometimes teaching can feel frustrating because you're not sure if your students are really getting what you're saying... And then moments like these happen and it reminds you that your work is not in vain!

If you feel discouraged, keep on keeping on and remember: you might be reaching students in ways you're not even aware of!

Okay look, I know this is probably a controversial take. But I stand behind it.

Church is important. Moms are important. And you know what? YOU are important.

Here’s the deal: if you want to be at church on Mother’s Day, even if it’s hard for you, that’s wonderful! Do it.

But if going makes your pain feel unbearable and you dread the day coming and would literally rather be anywhere else, it’s okay to take the day off.

What if there’s nobody to fill in for you?

Let me ask you something: if you got into a car accident on the way to church and had to go to the hospital instead of church, who would fill in for you?

Who would teach your class? Who would lead the kids choir? Who would guide the kids to pass out the Mother’s Day gifts?

Ask those people to fill in for you.

Your church will not fall apart because you need the day off. Your moms will still be honored, because there is ALWAYS somebody else in the church who can step in (unless you are literally the only staff member).

This post isn’t telling you not to go, it’s telling you that it’s okay to choose what you need, whether that’s going or not going.

And for those who serve and have wonderful Mother’s Days, can I ask something of you? Show grace to those who are hurting. Show love. Be willing to step up and take on an extra task. Ministry isn’t only about serving the non-staff members of the church; it’s about serving and loving one another—all of us.

We're just kidding... but how cool would that be if it were true?!!

Fun fact: Since the astronauts have internet access, they COULD download any of our Bible resources and use them up in space! Annnnd, that means since you have internet, you can download and use our resources wherever you are, too!
