Sin Entered the World

    08.28.22 | Grace Kids

    Ever since Adam and Eve sinned, all people have been born as sinners. Sin separates us from God, but God still loves us. God promised a Rescuer would come from Eve’s family. God sent His Son, Jesus, to rescue people from sin and bring them back to God.

    Discussion Questions:

    What is sin?

    Why is sin bad?

    When do you feel most tempted to sin?


     Family Prayer:

    Mornings
    Ask God to help you obey His Word today. Why are His rules for your good? How does obedience help you to enjoy Him more?

    Evenings
    Confess the sins of your day. Be specific and ask God to forgive the ways you’ve disobeyed Him. How has Jesus provided forgiveness for sin? How can confessing our sins help us to grow?


    Family Activities:


    For Fun...

    1. Spend a day gardening with your family. You could do yard work around your house or find a community garden to volunteer time with. Assign each member of your family a task such as pulling weeds, tilling soil, planting seeds, or gathering produce. Discuss the curse of sin seen in the difficulties of growing good food.

    2. Make a small bowl of ice cream for each person. Instead of sprinkles and chocolate syrup, top your bowl of ice cream with dirt and dish detergent. Ask if your kids would still want to eat the ice cream. Discuss how the ruined ice cream reminds us that God’s perfect creation was broken by sin. Even before the garden, God had a plan to make His creation new again through Jesus Christ.  Prepare a new bowl of ice cream and enjoy it with your family.
    Supplies: ice cream, good toppings, bad toppings

    To Serve...

    1. Choose a friend or family member in need of prayer. Send an encouraging card or gift to let them know your family is praying for them. Remind your kids that we live in a world broken by sin—which is why we see pain, sickness, and even death all around us—but God has provided hope in Jesus as the promised Savior. 
    Supplies: card or small gift
