"You are the light of the world...let your light shine before others that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Matt: 5:14 - 16
This verses of scripture is presented in social studies lesson 3. There was another scripture in lesson 2 from 2 Thessalonians 3:10 regarding strong work ethic. Having a strong work ethic and being the light of the world are two themes the early colonizers used to build strength and character. They looked to the Bible when they were weary and in need of encouragement. I believe these passages can be strong foundations for our students. I commend them to you for family discussion and consideration.
2 Thessalonians 3:10 and Matthew 5:14-16
