Materials<\/strong>
\nBring in a variety of electronic and electrical appliances. Some ideas are: a mixer, a calculator, a game boy, a hair dryer, a telephone, a watch, a camera, a computer, a toy car, etc.<\/p>\n

Activity<\/strong>
\nAsk kids to describe what each device is used for and how each works. Ask them really tough questions about each so that they discover they really don’t know all the details about how they actually work. You can discuss electricity, power generation, motors, microchips, and many other very difficult details.<\/p>\n

Application<\/strong>
\nThe fact that we do not know all the details about how something works does not mean we cannot use it. There are many people driving cars that could never fix a car. Many people are using computers that don’t know how all the hardware works or how a computer chip works.<\/p>\n

In the same way, we may have lots of unanswered questions about God and life, but that mean that we cannot believe in God and put our trust in Him. The question is not HOW does it work, but DOES it work?<\/p>\n
