An Object Lesson on Integrity

🍌🍊Bethy offers an object lesson for kids on what integrity is, and what the Bible has to say about it. This object lesson was adapted from "Object Lessons, Games & Activities" by Kathie R. Phillips. 🍌🍊
___________________________________________________________________________________
Questions for Further Discussion:
1) What is Integrity?
2) What does it look like in a person when the outside and the inside match?
3) What does it mean in Proverbs 11:3 when it says " The integrity of the upright guides them"?
4) What would you do in a situation where no one would know that you stole the $5.00?
5) You can know deep in your heart what you would really do. If you don't like your honest answer, how can you develop more integrity? Or what would you say to someone else who wants more integrity?
6) What is an example you can share of a situation that you needed to have integrity in?
7) Who is a person in your life who has integrity?
8) Everyone can take personal inventory for these questions:
-Am I a person of Integrity?
-Am I an honest person in my heart?
-Do my insides and my outsides match?
9) Look up Acts 16 to see a positive example. Have the kids point out the integrity in this situation.
10) Look up Acts 5 to see a negative example. Have the kids point out what they should have done to have integrity.
