Grade 6, Unit 6

Jesus Teaches and Heals

Dear Parents,

Unit 6 gets to the heart of Jesus’ ministry, under the theme of healing. While Jesus’ ministry involved

 far more than healing, His healing miracles have special significance and relate to His teachings and

 practice.

This unit includes three distinct types of accounts: teachings, healings, and parables. While Jesus

 teaches His followers, including us, through everything He does, His ministry includes times when

 He is simply preaching to or teaching His listeners, as in the first group of lessons. The second group

 of lessons involves physical healings of all kinds. The final group of lessons includes parables Jesus

 uses to teach His disciples and others.

While there are different types of teachings, they all come back to the theme of healing: the physical

 healing of those with different diseases and the emotional healing of those suffering in other ways. But

 the greatest healing Jesus performs is the spiritual healing from sin and eternal separation from Himself.

Through faith in Christ, we receive healing as well: for our spiritual ills, for our emotional ills, and for

 our bodies as well—now and especially in our resurrection. Help your child understand how each of the

 accounts in this unit applies to our lives and how we can view each as a reminder of how much our

 heavenly Father loves us and wants us to spend all eternity with Him.

If you do not have a church home of your own, please visit us at Zion.
