Parable of the Unmerciful Servant play mat folder game (available in the Parables Bundle)
HOW TO USE:
Kids put the pieces on the play mat as you read/discuss the story.
QUESTIONS TO ASK/DISCUSS:
What did the king first intend to do to the servant who owed him 10,000 talents? (Matthew 18:25.)
Why did the king change his mind? (Matthew 18:26.) How did he feel toward his servant? (Matthew 18:27.) What do you think it means to feel compassion?
What did the servant do after the king forgave the debt? (Matthew 18:28.) What did the servant who owed 100 pence (a very small amount) ask of the servant who had owed 10,000 talents? (Matthew 18:29.) How did the servant react to the pleas of his fellow servant? (Matthew 18:30.) What did the king do when he found out what had happened? (Matthew 18:31–34.)
What can we learn from the great difference in the debts owed by the two servants?
How are we sometimes like the unmerciful servant? Like the king? How do you feel when you forgive others?
When you do not forgive?
What was Jesus trying to teach the people when he told the parable of the unmerciful servant? What does Jesus tell us we must do in order to receive forgiveness? (Matthew 18:35.)
What did Jesus say when Peter asked him how often to forgive someone who has sinned against him? (Matthew 18:21–22.) What do you think Jesus was trying to teach Peter? (There is no limit to how many times we should forgive others.)
