• What did the older brother want the Carpenter to do when he came to his house?
• Do you think that would have helped his relationship with his brother?

• Why do you think he did that?
• Was it fair for him to do that when the brother wanted a wall?
TITLE: Be a Bridge Builder
Learning Episode 3
Planning to Build Bridges of our own!
Intro: The Carpenter ‘physically’ built a bridge between the 2 brother’s farms, but when we break friends we need to
build bridges too – this is about trying to put the R back in! In fact, some people call this RECONCILIATION which is a
very long word but it basically means putting the R back in (which is why it starts with an R!).
