Find out about what we learned in
Kids Ministry last Sunday.
Help make stories, and concepts "stick"
by having your kids participate
in the following discussions at home
make it stick!

in the car:
Today we continued our Christmas series, and we focused on the reason why Jesus came to the earth and was born in a lowly stable in Bethlehem. Jesus came to be our Savior, and He is the only one who can save us from our sins and help us to be more like Him. Have you put all your trust in Jesus, or are you trying to do life on your own?
-
Hanging Out:
Sin separates us from a holy God! Jesus was born and lived to die to pay the price for our sins so that we can be united with God. He took our punishment so that we could be forgiven. We mess up every day. We are so far from perfect. Jesus covers our imperfections because of His great love for us. Can you thank God this week for coming to earth as a baby to save us from our sins!
-
at bedtime:
Have your child repeat after you each day at bedtime, or make a silly song with hand motions to practice our verse of the month.
"Don't be afraid! I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people! The Savior, yes the Messiah, the Lord has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David!" Luke 2:10-11

parent time:
What you need to know:
It's easy to get caught up in striving to please God and earn his affection as humans. Are we as parents able to show our kids grace and reflect the Father's love for us. Our kids won't always listen, obey or get things right but we love them anyway! In the same way our heavenly Father loves us despite our shortcomings. How can we reflect this love to our kids and model for them what it looks like to give every detail of our lives to Jesus. Do we strive to earn his love, or do we surrender everything to Him and allow Him to work in our imperfect lives.
