Sunday, October 11, 2026 Foundations – Who is God? · Week 1

God Creates Everything

Scripture: Genesis 1:1–31
Big Idea: God made everything and it is good

What we’re learning

God made a good world, and every person matters to God.

For youth: Our worth begins with being made in God’s image; it does not depend on achievement, appearance, or popularity.

Read it together: Genesis 1:1–31

Talk about it together

With children

What did God call good?
What is special about the people God made?
How could we care for a person or part of creation this week?

With teenagers

What do you notice about what God calls good?
How is being made in God’s image different from having a carefully managed online image?
When do grades, sports, or appearance start to feel like measures of a person’s worth?
How might this passage affect how you treat someone outside your friend group?

Pray together

God, thank You for making this world and for making us. Help us care for people and for the things You have entrusted to us. Amen.
