Who to go to?

1. Place the items below on index cards. You can then play matching games with them. Place the cards writing side down down in a grid. children turn over two cards. If the question matches with the occupation they get to keep those cards and try again. Otherwise they turn the cards back over and the next person tries to match two cards.

2. Make two sets of cards listing only the occupations. Divide the class into two teams and give each team one set. Call out the description and then the first team to bring you the card with the correct occupation gets a point. Award the team that gets the most points.

Application
A teacher may give us bad marks, but we can learn from our mistakes. A mechanic may take the car completely apart, but when he puts it back together it works. A dentist may pull a tooth, but he makes room for a new tooth. Sometimes the solutions to problems are very difficult or even painful. Also discuss the idea that we had a sin problem and as such need Jesus.
