![]() ![]() ![]() Hans: “Ya, watch me lift this barbell through the roof into the outer atmosphere.” (Pretend to try to pick up the barbell several times. Time to show these kids how powerful our muscles are.” Hans: “Kids, hear me now and write to me next Christmas, hard times build up your puny spiritual muscles!”įranz: “No more talking. Maybe he’s the King of Spiritual Pumptitude.” Hans: “Hey, Franz, it sounds like that pastor has some really super-sized spiritual muscles!”įranz: “Ya, Hans. But then God builds us back up stronger than we were before!” I bet you had more muscle than even the pastor.”įranz: “Ya, Hans, but he said something that convinced me he is no girlie-man.”įranz: “He said that sometimes bad things happen to us and tear us down like puny muscle tissue. ![]() Hans: “Tearing down your muscles first is how weights work to….”įranz: “Hans, I went to church the other day.” Then, my body repairs my muscles and makes them stronger than before.” Hans: “Ya, and perfect pinky toe muscles, too, ya!”įranz: “Well, theses weights actually tear down my muscle tissue. Arnold Schwarzenegger, says, ‘No pain – no gain!’”įranz: “See this barbell here?” (Point to barbell.įranz: “They will give me perfectly shaped ab muscles and glutes.” Hans: “So true! As the King of Pumptitude, Mr. Hans: “Ya, maybe he had his mommy-wommy write it for him.”įranz: “Ya, right! Kids, hear me now and believe me later, you cannot get a properly pumped up body like this one (does a few poses) without pain.” What do you think about that?”įranz: “Well, Hans, I can hardly believe he could pick up a pencil to write with those teeny tiny muscles of his.” Hans: “Can you believe that, Franz? This girlie-man wants properly pumped up muscles without it hurting his weak and flabby body. Isn’t there an easier way to get properly pumped up?” (Crumples paper, and throws away.) Hans: “Dear, Hans and Franz: Lifting weights hurts my muscles. Franz celebrates letter with some exaggerated poses.) Hans: “But before we can pump you up tonight, we have a letter to read from one of our fans.” (Hans pulls out letter. My name is Hans.”įranz: “Ya, ya, and I’m Franz, and we’re here to….”īoth: “Pump….you up!” (Clap hands in unison on the word ‘pump.’ Then point to all the kids in exaggerated motions, and do poses like they would do at a body building competition.) Hans: “Good morning (afternoon, evening) little boys and girls. Use the following script (or modify to suit your needs): Practice the script (and your Austrian accent).Put on the sweats, and stuff them with newspaper to make it look like you’ve got huge muscles all over your body.O Attach the two Styrofoam balls to either end of the dowel rod. O Wrap the duct tape around the dowel rod from top to bottom so that it is completely covered. Make a set of “barbells” by following these steps:.Sheet of paper with some writing on it.Styrofoam balls (2 – six-inch diameter or larger).Thick belts (or something that looks like a weight belt).Newspaper (or something else to stuff inside your sweats to simulate muscles).Sweat pants and a sweat shirt (for both).It’s best if there are two leaders to do the lesson, but you can do it with just one. It’s a play off the Saturday Night Live skit on Hans and Franz, but the kids will not need to be familiar with the skit to enjoy the humor. This object lesson teaches that God uses difficult times and circumstances to make us stronger.
