背经节(12分钟)
你们要儆醒，在信仰上站立得住，要作大丈夫，要刚强。凡事你们都要在爱里作。
-哥林多前书16:13-14
在黑板上写下这段经文，让孩子们朗读几次。然后擦掉一个词，比如"儆醒"，让他们再朗读。然后再擦掉一个词，然后再擦掉另一个词，每次让孩子们凭记忆正确地朗读这段经文。直到所有的词都被擦掉。
故事与讨论(15分钟)
引言：
现在沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌已经担任巴比伦省的行政官，你可能会认为他们的麻烦应该结束了。然而事实并非如此。接下来发生的事情完全出乎意料。尼布甲尼撒王决定制作一个金像，一个近乎九层楼高的巨大金像。完成后，所有的宫廷官员都被邀请参加落成仪式。在仪式期间，向所有人宣布了一个特别的声明。每当听到特定的音乐时，每个人都必须跪拜这个金像，否则就会被处死。但沙得拉、米煞和亚伯尼歌属于神。他们会敬拜这个金像以保住生命，还是即使面临死亡也忠于神？让我们看看发生了什么。
读 但以理书3:10-30
让孩子们跟着圣经一起读这一段。每当你读到沙得拉、米煞和亚伯尼歌的名字时，让孩子们大声地与你一起说出这些名字。（在这个简短的段落中，每个名字都会被说12次。）
问题讨论：
1.人们什么时候应该崇拜金像？（每当听到音乐时。）
2.被抓到的不敬拜金像的人会受什么惩罚？（在火炉中被杀害。）
3.为什么沙得拉、米煞和亚伯尼歌有勇气拒绝跪拜金像？（他们相信神会拯救他们。）
4.沙得拉、米煞和亚伯尼歌在28节中做了什么，让王如此钦佩？（他们信靠神，愿意舍弃生命，也不愿侍奉或敬拜其他神。）
5.三人完全未受伤地出来后，王赞美了谁？（神）
6.在困难、压力或迫害时，我们如何找到所需的勇气以保持对神的忠诚？（答案会各有不同。）
课堂活动(15分钟)
备选-课堂活动(8分钟)
解释给孩子听，我们与神的关系越紧密，当面对困难时，我们就越有勇气去做正确的事情。
应用(4分钟)
给每个孩子一张纸和一支铅笔，请他们写下至少三种情况，在这些情况下，他们可能需要勇气，以保持对神的顺服。一些例子包括当其他孩子取笑一个学生的基督教信仰，或者当有人拒绝听取一个基督徒对创造论的看法。如果时间允许，让孩子们分享其中一个情况，并询问他们在那种情况下会如何反应。作为基督徒，我们可以在这些时候建立勇气，以保持对神的顺服。
上周，我们发现声誉是通过反复做某事来建立的。要在困难和世俗压力面前保持勇敢和顺服的声誉，我们必须祷告和阅读神的话，一次又一次地寻求神的帮助。希望我们永远不会面临像沙得拉、米煞和亚伯尼歌那样的生死时刻。然而，在生活中，我们会发现自己处于许多情况中，如果我们屈服于压力或背弃正义，对我们或他人都可能会造成很大的伤害。告诉他人圣经所说的内容、真理以及耶稣是主需要勇气。但我们可以做到，因为神会一直帮助我们。

THE PROPHET DANIEL
LESSON 2: A REPUTATION OF COURAGE
After completing this Sunday school lesson, the children will learn that God gives them the courage and encouragement they need to remain obedient to Him, even during tough times, worldly pressures, and persecution.
TOPICS Courage, Daniel, Fearing God, Protection, Stand Firm, Shadrach Meshach & Abednego
AS KIDS ARRIVE (7 minutes) Fire Escape (Maze) Click here
OPENING PRAYER AND PRAISE (5 minutes) Further info? Click here
MEMORY WORK (12 minutes) "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love." 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 NIV
Write the memory verse on the board and have the kids say it a few times. Then erase one of the words, such as "guard" and have them say it again. Then erase another word, then another, each time having the kids say the verse correctly from memory. Continue until all the words are erased.
SCRIPTURE READING AND DISCUSSION (15 minutes) Introduction: Now that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were acting as administrators over the province of Babylon, you would think their troubles would be over. Well think again. What happened next was totally unexpected. King Nebuchadnezzar decided to make an image of gold. A huge golden statue, nearly nine stories tall. When it was finished, all of the court officials were invited to the dedication ceremony. During the ceremony, a special announcement was made to all the people. Everyone must fall down and worship the statue whenever they heard certain music playing, or else be killed. But Shadrach, Meshach and Adednego belonged to God. Would they worship this golden image to stay alive, or remain faithful to God even if it meant death? Let's find out what happened. Read Daniel 3:10-30 Have the children follow along in their Bibles as you read this passage. Except each time you come to the names of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, have the kids say these names with you out loud. (Each name is said 12 times in this short passage.) Discussion Questions: 1. When were the people supposed to worship the golden image? (Whenever they heard the music played.) 2. What would happen to someone who was caught not worshiping the image? (Killed in a furnace.) 3. Why did Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego have the courage to refuse to bow down to the statue? (They had faith that God would save them.) 4. What did Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego do in verse 28 that impressed the king so much? (They trusted in God and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any other god.) 5. Who did the king praise after the three came out completely unharmed? (God.) 6. How can we find the courage we need to remain faithful to God during times of trouble, pressure or persecution? (Answers will vary.)
CLASS EXERCISE (15 minutes) Fiery Furnance (Skit) Click here
ALTERNATE CLASS EXERCISE (8 minutes) Being Close to God (Activity) Click here
If using this activity, explain to the kids that the closer our relationship is to God, the more courage we will have to do what is right when faced with difficult situations.
APPLICATION (15 minutes) Give each child a sheet a paper and a pencil, and ask them to write down at least three situations in which they might find themselves where they would have to be courageous in order to remain obedient to God. Some examples include when other kids are making fun of a students Christianity, or when someone refuses to listen to a Christian's views on creation. If time permits, have the children share one of their situations and ask them how they would react in that situation. What can we do as Christians to build up courage to stay obedient to God during these times? Last week, we discovered that a reputation is built by doing something over and over. To have a reputation for being courageous and obedient during times of difficulty and worldly pressure, we must seek God's help over and over through prayer and reading God's Word. Hopefully we will never be faced with a life or death situation like that of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. However, during our life we will find ourselves in many situations that if we give in to the pressure or turn our backs on doing what it right, it could be very damaging to us or to others. It takes courage to tell others what the Bible says, what the truth is, and how Jesus is the Lord. But we can do it because God will always be there to help.
NEXT WEEK Come back next week to see how some fingers frightened a ruthless king.
