Sunday: moneychangers

Today's Sunday School lesson was about respecting God. (Specifically from when Jesus goes into the temple courts to basically find a market there and whips everyone out and turns over the money changers' tables.)

So the activity of the day was to play a game on a table. We played Bible Trivia. It was rather hard. There are a lot of details in the Bible, especially the old testament, and then it can be hard to remember names even if you remember the story. But I digress. We were supposed to be loud while playing. That didn't really work. Then someone came in and flipped the table over. (That was the real point of the activity). I had put a whole bunch of game pieces on the table and the noise makers that I was hoping they would use were still on the table, so it all went flying.

I think everyone was surprised at how effective turning over a table can be at stopping the activity, even the people that were expecting it.
