Day 5: Living the Kin-dom Now (Heaven on Earth)

Theobot reached the final quest in her journey to explore the Kin-dom. She had seen the difference between Pharaoh's kingdom of fear and Jesus' Kin-dom of love. She saw God's rescue plan when he parted the Red Sea, opening a new way for his people where there was no way before (Exodus 14:21–31).

She finally understood. The Kin-dom of God isn't a place we have to wait for. Jesus said, "The kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21). It's here and now! When we choose love, courage, and service, we are bringing a little piece of heaven to earth. We are living out Jesus's prayer: "On earth as it is in heaven." We are walking on the new path God has opened for us.

Key Question: What can we do to bring the Kin-dom to earth?

Final Challenge: The Kin-dom Celebration

Today, Theobot won't just act out a story; she will become a tool for building the Kin-dom. Your challenge is to use Theobot to do something good for others.

Choose one of these two missions:

Mission A: Theobot the Encourager

  1. Think of someone in your group or class who you want to encourage.
  2. Program Theobot to deliver a message of kindness.
  3. Record a message using the sound recorder, like "You are a great friend!" or "God loves you!"
  4. Program Theobot to travel to that person.
  5. When she arrives, have her play the encouraging message, flash her lights in beautiful colors, and display a smiley face :) on her LED screen.

Mission B: Theobot the Gatherer

  1. If you are doing a service project, like making lunches for the hungry or collecting items for a charity, Theobot can help!
  2. Create a "collection zone" on your table.
  3. Program Theobot to help gather items. You can attach a small paper scoop to her front.
  4. Program her to go out, collect a small item (like a piece of paper representing a prayer or a bottle cap representing a donation), and bring it back to the collection zone.
  5. Each time she successfully delivers an item, have her play a positive sound and flash green.

By completing this final challenge, you and Theobot are not just learning about the Kin-dom—you are building it. You are bringing heaven to earth, one act of love at a time.
