When Moses Glowed

You may go to the Pursue God page Here for this week's discussion

Watch the video above and talk about it with your family.

When Moses came down the mountain, everyone could see that God rubbed off on him.


In today’s lesson, we’re going to talk about an event that happened after Moses came down the mountain and saw the Israelites worshipping a golden cow. Remember, Moses had gone up the mountain to get the 10 Commandments from God. So, when he returned, he couldn’t believe what he saw. He was so angry that he threw down the stone tablets that the commandments had been written upon. So, God told Moses to come back up the mountain, with new tablets, so God could give him the 10 Commandments again. While Moses was up there, God decided to remind Moses of just how powerful and awesome he was. He passed in front of Moses, allowing Moses to catch a glimpse of his awesome power and love. God’s power was so strong that Moses’ face glowed. The reason-Moses was reflecting just a portion of God’s power. When Moses returned to the Israelites, they could see that Moses was different. Did you know that this can be true of us, too. When we spend time with God, he will rub off on us, too. We can reflect who God is to our friends and family by the way we talk and act. Let’s all be good reflectors of God’s love!


Key Points:

  • Moses obeyed God and went up the mountain a second time.
  • God walked in front of Moses and gave him a glimpse. Exodus 33:19-23
  • When Moses came down the mountain his face was shiny! Exodus 34:29-30
  • The more time we spend with God, the more he rubs off on us.
Memory Verse:

| Colossians 3:10 Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.

Talk About It
  1. What’s your favorite part of the video? What’s one thing you learned from it?
  2. Describe some of your favorite traits about yourself. (hair color, eyes, height, smarts). Who in your family are you most like?
  3. Why did Moses go back up the mountain? What did he ask of God?
  4. What happened to Moses once he saw God? How did the people react when they saw Moses?
  5. Read Galatians 2:20. What do you think this verse means? What did Jesus do for us to help us in our battle against sin?
  6. How will you apply this lesson to your life this week?

In DC Kids, we use Pursue God ministry resources to help your kids learn and grow. After much research, we found that much of the Pursue God curriculum aligns with our beliefs. From time to time, we'll update this area so that you, parents, can have God-centered conversations with your children while you also learn. We want to partner with you in teaching your children lessons from the Bible that can help them develop a strong foundation in their Christian walk. Each week, you'll receive a video with a discussion guide to help you build a healthy conversational culture in your homes.

Use Your Memory to Earn Bible Bucks Every Week!

Along with bringing your completed devotional, a Bible, or a friend, If you can memorize and recite the memory verse from the previous week, you can receive a Bible Buck each week! 

Buckarama Store Prizes!

Kids can also spend Bible Bucks in our make-shift store during our Buckarama celebration or at other times throughout each quarter. We'll designate certain prizes based on the amount of Bible bucks earned. For example, students can earn candy with 1 Buck, or an even bigger prize such as a plush toy for 5 Bible Bucks. We'll update you on whenever our store is open!

Students still have opportunities to earn Bible Bucks on Buckarama Sunndays. They get a buck for showing up, for bringing a Bible, bringing a friend, or by reciting a few memory verses on that day! There are lots of opportunities for your child to earn bucks. We just want to encourage each child to study the Word! With your help, parents, we will continue to cultivate good Bible study habits in our children.
