Summary
Today, we explore the powerful hymn, "How Great Thou Art." Together, we'll dive into the inspiring story of Pastor Karl Boberg, who was moved to write the original poem after experiencing a fierce storm in the Swedish countryside. We'll discover how this poem evolved into the beloved hymn we know today, thanks to the teamwork of believers across the world.
We encourage the kids to marvel at God’s creation this week and see how it reminds them of His greatness.
Take a moment this week and listen to this hymn with them. It's a popular one so you can search it online, Youtube, or Spotify and listen for free.
Enjoy!
