Bible Story:
Exodus 32:1-35God’s people chose to sin against Him by creating a golden calf to worship while Moses was on the mountain. Their sin separated them from God because sin kills our relationship with God. They chose to worship a false god instead.
Story:
Fall
Everything was perfect in the world until we broke it. When humanity chose to sin, the world that was once perfect became messed up and broken. Sin is ultimately a rejection of God Himself. Because of sin bad things happen, we experience all types of pain, and death has come into the world. All of creation groans and wishes that the world be perfect and good like it was before.
Every child should know that:
- Sin makes us dead.
Every child should:
- Look around and acknowledge the ways that sin kills us and the world around us.
Every child should feel:
- Broken over sin and its effects on the world and our lives.
Every child should want:
- To experience new life in Christ.
