Hey-O Kids Curriculum’s primary goal with the Stories of the Bible is to tell the stories from God’s word accurately and in a way that is engaging to children of all ages. This is Paul who told people about Jesus in lots of different places. One day Paul was walking with his friend Silas. They were being followed by a girl who was controlled by an evil spirt. Her owners used her to make money. After days and days of this happening, Paul got so annoyed that he turned around and told the evil spirit to leave her. So the girl was freed, but her owners got mad at Paul and Silas because they wouldn’t make any money off her anymore and they had them thrown in jail. The jailer locked them up. Around midnight, Paul and Silas were praying and singing to God and the other prisoners were listening. Suddenly, there was an earthquake and the chains of all the prisoners fell off. But Paul and Silas didn’t leave even though they could have. Several people decided to follow Jesus that night including the jailer and his whole family. And the next morning, they were released from jail and the city officials even apologized to them. Paul and Silas encouraged the Christians in the town and then continued on their mission to tell people about Jesus.
