Cherub Wings 4: Follow the Leader

Description

FOLLOWING GOD'S CALL -- When little Samuel heard God calling him, he replied, "Speak Lord, for your servant is listening!" And so began a fascinating life of dedication to God's service! Children will also see how Jesus called Peter and Andrew to follow him as disciples and learn how Peter and Andrew's devotion to Jesus grew as Jesus gave them a huge catch of fish after they had tried all night and caught nothing. Cherub's fantastic lineup of songs, stories and illustrations shows us that we're never too young to hear God's call! Recommended for ages 3 - 7.

• "Fluffy, McDuffy, and Puffy" — a comical object lesson
• "If Anyone Will Serve Me" — a Scripture song
• "Here am I, Lord" — a poem
• "The Fishermen's Call" — an illustrated Bible story
• "Jesus Is Calling You" — a visualized song

Can Jesus call kids?

Follow the leader deals with Jesus calling us to follow Him. Not for pastors, priests and nuns, but for kids - like yours and mine, who live in an everyday world -- today. When I was a little boy, I really wanted to be called by Jesus, thanks to my dear mother, who taught me to love Him. But I was taught, sometimes directly, other times just in the way things were presented, that the calling of God in people's lives, especially children, was only something that happened long ago. It didn't seem to work the same today. This story turns that idea around, and encourages the kids that God can and wants to use them!

In Cherub Wings style, it's fun --even fascinating--, but it packs a message that's worth a lot. It touches lightly, but it develops the idea that Jesus has a plan for each one of us, and that if we are open to that plan, and want to know what it is, He will lead us in it, even if we're only kids.

As with the others I've seen in the Cherub Wings series (I haven't seen all of them), Follow the Leader is a strong Christian message, but it's not denominational or doctrinal. That is to say, it seems to be made to be acceptable by most all Christians, without causing disputes over controversial doctrines. It seems to be aimed at the grade school aged kids, but it's going to be hard for others in the family to leave the room while it's on. The cartoon graphics are very simple, but somehow they are very appealing to young and old.
