Take your students on a journey through Genesis 28 - 31 as they explore Jacob’s middle years: his dramatic flight from Esau, Jacob's dream of a staircase to Heaven, and the six promises God made to him. This four-part Bible lesson provides unique learning experiences, including a colorful "Jacob's Ladder" floor to ceiling visual to help students grasp the powerful truth that Jesus is our Bridge - the only way to Heaven!
Lesson Highlights & Activities:
Reviewing Jacob’s Three “Grabs” – Students are reminded about Jacob’s history of grasping his brother Esau’s heel, birthright, and blessing.
Color Coding: Jacob on the Run – Students analyze Genesis 27:41 - 28:14 by color coding key dialogue and emotional phrases in the text which helps them understand Jacob’s fear and ultimately God’s assurances. ⭐️
Jacob’s Staircase to Heaven – Using an eye-catching "Staircase to Heaven" display (instructions and video link provided) and an associated worksheet, students identify the six promises God made to Jacob as well as Jacob’s conditional "IF/THEN" response.
Jacob Marries Leah & Rachel – Through a map activity and the "Jacob Deceived" worksheet, students uncover how Jacob, the deceiver, is deceived by his Uncle Laban—a pivotal moment in his story. ✅️
Jesus: The Only Bridge to Heaven – You will take your students to a nearby stairwell to illustrate the truth that we cannot expect to go to Heaven because our parents or grandparents are saved ~ we must all come to God on our own. This is illustrated by an interactive activity where a student rides on the back of an adult helper up the stairs to illustrate how Jesus carries us to Heaven, bridging the gap between us and God.
