Elijah Videos

Our recent study of the prophet Elijah's life took on more significance for us as we created video presentations of stories from his life.  After planning, writing a script, rehearsing, recording, and editing, these are the final products.  Enjoy!



Great job 4th graders!  
Now that you've studied Elijah's life, what can you learn from him about living your own life for God?  Please leave a comment with your thoughts.

    I really think that the videos cleared things up about those stories. They are really cool. My favorite story was probably the one about the widow.

    I think we all did a good job on the Elijah project and I think when they were doing the Elijah project they all had faith in them. God was helping them.

    Well Elijah always did what God told him to do. Also always prayed to God to help him in any situation that he had. So I think we should do the same as Elijah.

    kyle made me think that we should all remember that if Elijah never met God he would be a mere farmer

    I liked the way that Emilie did her part in the story when she had to be Jezebel. She gave me a really good picture in my mind about how angry she was great work!

    Well I think I like the one that Jillian, Trevor, and Luke maid because, when it said that Ahab was mad it really shoed that he was really angry that it was true that there was going to be a famine. Also all the parts have very good expositions and shoed how they were felling in that moment.

    Well Elijah always told the truth to each other and to God. So what I think what all of us should do is always tell the truth to other people and your family and friends to.
