Control Your Tongue
Key Verse
James 1:26
Additional Verses
James 3:3-5; Psalm 39:1; Proverbs 18:21; Philippians 4:8
Materials Needed
- Horse bit and bridle.
Object Lesson
(Hold up the bit and bridle.)
Do any of you know what this is? (Wait for a response.) This is a bridle for a horse, and this metal piece here is the bit. Do you know where the bit goes? It goes in the horse’s mouth! Then you hold on to the reigns and when you pull on one side it causes the bit to tug on one side of the horse’s mouth and he will turn in that direction. When you pull on the other side, then she will turn that way. Do you know what happens when you pull them both at the same time? The horse should stop!
In the book of James it talks a lot about learning how to control our tongue. In James 3:3 it says that a bit is very small but it can control the entire horse. That means that if you want to control a gigantic horse all you need to do is control the bit in its mouth.
In James 1:26 it tells us that we may try to act religious, but if we cannot control our tongue then our religion is worthless. If we learn how to control this tiny bit then we can control a huge horse. If we learn how to control our tongue we can control our whole body.
We control our tongue by only speaking good and honorable things. When we gossip or when we tell lies or say bad things about people we are not controlling our tongues at all, and the Bible says that our religion is worthless.
Let us learn how to control our tongues. If you are tempted to say something that you shouldn’t maybe you should walk away for a few minutes. Maybe you should bite your tongue! Maybe you should think of something nice to say instead.

The Gold That Lies
Key Verse
Proverbs 12:22
Additional Verses
Proverbs 6:16-19; Colossians 3:9-10; Exodus 20:16; Proverbs 12:19; Leviticus 19:11
Materials Needed
- Fool’s gold
Object Lesson
(Hold up the piece of fool’s gold.) Does anyone know what this is? (Wait for a response but don’t tell them if they are correct or not.)
There is a story of a miner a long time ago that went to find gold. He spent long days digging and sifting for specks of the precious metal in the dirt. He hoped that he would be able to strike it rich, but he never found very much.
When he was about to give up he found this amazing beautiful chunk of gold. He was so happy and excited that he finally struck gold. He carefully wrapped his nugget of gold and took it in to town so that he could get it exchanged for money. When he took it in the man behind the desk took one look at it and laughed and told the miner that it was NOT gold at all, but it was fool’s gold. The man hung his head and walked away not even bothering to take his chunk of worthless fool’s gold with him.
(Hold up the fool’s gold.)
This chunk of fool’s gold looks really pretty but it isn’t worth very much at all. It is kinda of like a lie. When we tell a lie we try to make our self look better by not telling the truth. But God sees right through that and He tells us in Proverbs 12:22 that he hates lies.
Have you ever told a lie? Have you ever tried to make something look better than it was by not telling the truth. We need to obey God and tell the truth and not be like this piece of fool’s gold.

Sticks and stones
May break my bones
But words
Will never hurt me.
We have all heard this rhyme, and although it sounds kind of cute, it’s really not true at all! Words do hurt. If someone says something rude to you or lies about you, you may smile on the outside and try to look tough, but on the inside it hurts a lot! It feel like a nail has been gaming driven straight into you.
(Take out the board and nail a nail into it).
Each time someone says something hurtful it is like driving another nail into you. (Drive another nail).
Maybe sometimes you get angry and say something mean or hurtful to someone else. Guess what that is doing? That is like driving a online game nail into them. (Drive another nail).
Sure, sticks and stones may break our bones, but words can certainly hurt you! (Drive another nail).
(Hold up the board with the nails in it).
The sad thing is that many people go through life with all of these nails stuck in them. They don’t go away very easily. Maybe is something a parent said, or a friend, or a teacher that still bothers you years and years later.
Only through God’s help and being willing to forgive other can these nails be taken out.
(Take out all of the nails and then hold up the board).
