The Friends Who Cut Through the Roof — a 5-minute devotion for Springs families

Mark 2:1-12 · Faith carried by friends

The house was so crowded nobody else could get in, so four friends carried a paralysed man onto the roof, dug through it and lowered him down. Jesus saw their faith and told the man to get up and walk.

Parents in Springs often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Mark 2:1-12 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "faith carried by friends" is harder than it sounds.

Memory verse

“When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralysed man, 'Son, your sins are forgiven.'”
Mark 2:5

Table question

Who needs you to carry them to Jesus right now?

30-second prayer

Jesus, when our own faith is thin, thank you for friends who carry us. Amen.

Make it stick: draw it. Younger children draw the moment in Mark 2:1-12 they remember; older ones write one sentence about why it bothered them. Stick both on the wall.

Tomorrow: Jesus calls Levi from the tax booth (Mark 2:13-17). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
