How to Create Your Own Scripture Jar ✨

Take a look at our guide on creating a meaningful Scripture Jar for children! This simple project helps kids connect with God's Word through all their emotions.

Materials Needed

1.Container

A mason jar or any clear container with a lid works perfectly. Choose one that's easy for little hands to open.

2.Writing Materials

Colored paper or popsicle sticks for different emotions. These will hold your Scripture verses.

3.Decorating Supplies

Markers, scissors, and optional items like stickers or ribbons. These add a personal touch to your jar.

Step by Step

✅ Step 1: Print & Cut – Download and print the Scripture slips, then cut them out neatly. ✂️

✅ Step 2: Choose a Jar – Find a small jar, cup, or container to store the scripture notes. You can even decorate it to make it extra special! 

✅ Step 3: Fold & Fill – Fold the scripture slips and place them in the jar, ready to be picked one by one. 

✅ Step 4: Daily Scripture Time – Let kids draw a new verse each day, encouraging reflection, discussion, and prayer. 

How to Use the Scripture Jar

✅ Identify Emotion — Help your child recognize what they're feeling. "It seems like you're feeling scared right now."

✅ Select Verse — Choose a scripture from the corresponding color. The physical act of drawing a verse builds excitement.

✅ Read Together — Read the verse aloud, perhaps multiple times. This reinforces the message and aids memorization.

✅ Discuss Meaning — Talk about what the verse means and how it applies to their situation. Make connections to daily life.

✅ Pray — End by praying together, incorporating the verse. This teaches children to apply Scripture in prayer.

Making it a Family Activity

Create Together
Set aside a special family craft day. Each family member can contribute verses that are meaningful to them.

Daily Routine
Draw a verse each morning at breakfast or before bedtime. Make it a consistent family tradition.

Share Insights
Take turns explaining why a particular verse is helpful. Children often have profound spiritual insights.

Emotion Check-ins
Use the jar as a conversation starter about feelings. "Which color do you need today?"

Using the Jar in Sunday School

✅ Group Project
Have children create scripture jars together. Each child contributes verses to a collective jar or makes individual ones to take home.

✅ Lesson Theme
Connect the jar to lessons about emotions in the Bible. How did David express feelings in Psalms? How did Jesus show emotions?

✅ Memory Game
Draw verses and challenge children to memorize them. Create friendly competition with small rewards for verses remembered.

✅ Emotion Scenarios
Role‑play situations that trigger different emotions. Then draw relevant verses to learn biblical responses.

Teaching Opportunities

1.Memorization Techniques

Use the jar to practice creative memorization methods. Try singing verses, adding hand motions, or creating acronyms.

2.Bible Navigation

Show children how to find verses in their own Bibles. Teach the order of books and how chapter and verse numbers work.

3.Historical Context

For older children, briefly explain who wrote each verse and when. This builds understanding of the Bible's historical nature.

4.Real-Life Application

Discuss specific situations where each verse applies. "How might this help when a friend hurts your feelings?"

Expanding the Concept

✅ Meaningful Gifts
Create scripture jars as thoughtful presents for birthdays or special occasions. Personalize them for the recipient's specific needs.

✅ Church Projects
Organize a church‑wide initiative to create jars for new families, hospital patients, or nursing home residents.

✅ Adult Versions
Adapt the concept for adults with more complex emotions and verses. Add journaling prompts or reflection questions.
