Hey families!

We are BACK in person! 🎉

This Sunday, we’re discovering…
Big Idea: When we make mistakes, we can make things right.
Bible Story: Nathan Reveals David's Sin (2 Samuel 11:26-12:13a)
WHAT YOU DO
Watch the video! Sing and dance along to the worship songs, watch the Bible story, and connect the big idea to real life!
Talk about each of the questions to keep the conversation going
Do the activity together to have some fun and reinforce the big idea!
Talk It Through Together
Question of the day! (all ages!)
Go around the room and ask the question: “What was the best part of your weekend?”
Story Questions:
What did the rich man do wrong in Nathan’s story? (Even though the rich man had many sheep, he stole a sheep from a poor man to prepare a meal for his guest.)
What did David do when he realized the story was about him? (He immediately prayed to God and admitted what he had done wrong.)
When is one time you learned something from a mistake you made?
When we make a mistake what can we do to make things right?
Connect to the Big Idea (ACTIVITY)
Write a note of advice or encouragement to yourself at some point in the past when you made a mistake, or write a note of encouragement to your future self that you can read when you make a mistake in the future! You can use the prompt attached below (or pull from your August Church Kit!) or write your own!
Have you ever looked back on something you did before and wished someone had given you some good advice to avoid that mistake or handle it better? We can't go back to the past and change what's already happened, but we don't need to linger on guilty, embarrassing, or ashamed feelings because we can learn from those moments. When we make mistakes, we can make things right.
YOU DID IT!
Continue the conversation all week by talking about how we can let God’s unchanging love impact how we act in the world
