What is this unit about?
The gospel story unfolds through Jesus’ death and resurrection. Jesus - our perfect Prophet, Priest, and King - rose on the third day. The final days of Jesus’ ministry on earth showed how He is the true Redeemer who rescues us from sin. As the final days of Jesus’ earthly ministry drew near and His rejection was at hand, He continued to warn all who would listen to turn from sin and trust in Him. Failing to believe in Jesus and to love God has consequences.
Why is this important for our kids?
It is becoming uncommon for kids to have consequences for their choices and actions. The grace of the gospel shows us we are always forgiven for sin, a rejection of God and this grace he freely gives will have eternal consequences for us all. Let’s guide our kids hearts towards their loving heavenly father who, in His mercy, has not left us in our sin.
