Parable of the Wicked Tenants

Use this animated video to teach kids about the Parable of the Tenants: "The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third. Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way. Last of all, he sent his son to them. 'They will respect my son,' he said. “But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him and take his inheritance.' So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.” Matthew 21:35-39 (NIV)

Join Jesus, Peter and John as Jesus runs a new parable past his disciples. Kids will learn that God sent many men before Jesus like Noah, Moses, David and lots of prophets; all telling people to turn away from their wicked ways. Finally, He sent His son, Jesus, who was ultimately crucified for bearing the same message of all those before Him. God gave them a chance. He even gave them a second chance—and a third. But when they rejected His Son, that was their last chance. He is our last chance too—our only chance to have eternal life in heaven with him.
