Bible Story:
Genesis 3:1-21God made the first man and woman. He gave them everything they needed, yet they turned away from Him and sinned against Him. Because God made them male and female and created the first marriage and family, the consequence of their sin was felt by their entire family. Our sin affects everyone.
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 has broken our families.
Every child should:
- Be aware of the ways their sin affects their family.
Every child should feel:
- Burdened at how sin breaks our families.
Every child should want:
- Their family to be made new by Christ.
