The Way, The Truth and the Life (FULL kit)

The Way, the Truth, and the Life Story Kit

“I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” — John 14:6

The Way, the Truth, and the Life Story Kit invites children into the hope and beauty of Jesus’ promise that He is our guide, our truth, and our life. Through Scripture-rich storytelling, hands-on play, and visual symbols, children discover what it means to follow Jesus along His good and trustworthy way.

This set is part of a larger series exploring the “I AM” statements of Jesus found in the Gospel of John.  Six complete kits will be released over time, each designed to help children discover more about who Jesus is.  The Way, the Truth and the Life is the third set to be released and can be used in tandem with the Epiphany season if desired.

What’s Included (Full Story Kit)

*Story Mat (18" × 30")

The two toned story mat acts as simplified dark / light visual and story scene for the stories to be re-enacted.  The mat has a felt-like polyester top with a non-slip rubber base.  It provides a beautiful, durable foundation for storytelling.  (Note: this story mat is used in multiple story sets, so it is versatile!)
