An easy to do gospel illussion from Richard Lenski

You can use this gospel illusion from Richard Lenski in your children's ministry, Sunday school or kidmin. You don't have to be a Christian magician to do this trick on the Bible story of Daniel.

Verse:

Daniel chapter 6

Goal:

To teach the story of Daniel and the Lion’s Den. How he survived as found in the book of Daniel chapter 6.

Material Needed:

- thumb tip 
- two silks

(this YouTube video explains how the trick works)

You will probably have to make this.  My lion silk is a twelve inch and the Daniel is a six inch silk. Daniel and Lion’s Den silk set and thumb tip. You can also write lion on the larger silk and Daniel on the smaller silk.

Setup:

Start out with the silks ready. Have Daniel in your hand and display it.      

Create an unforgettable experiment for your Sunday school class

Did you know that you can create the most beautiful colour effects, even a rainbow, in a bowl of milk? The only things you need for this is a bowl of milk, different colours of food colouring (liquid) and a drop of washing up liquid.

This is not just a really fun craft, it is also a cool science experiment that will appeal to both the girls and the boys in your Sunday school class or your children’s ministry.

You can combine this experiment with several Bible stories or Christian themes:

The story of creation - creating something that is beautiful  (Genesis 1)
The story of Noah and the rainbow – creating a rainbow in the milk (Genesis 9:8-17)
The story of the Bethlehem star – creating a star in the milk (Matthew 2: 1-12)|
The theme of light conquering darkness – this works really well if you use lots of dark colours in the milk.
The theme of the cross – maybe it is an accident, but most of the effects in the video below change into a cross.

Well, it's very easy. All you need is two oranges and a jug of water. Fun, easy, healthy and unforgettable!
