Citizen Kids THROUGH THE Year

This Christmas Series is all about the greatest story ever told. From how the world was broken by sin in the beginning to Jesus being born! Christmas is all about the birth of Jesus and we are instilling why it was so important that Jesus was born.

Main Thing: Sin Breaks Things

Overview: Using the story of Adam and Eve, we talked about how sin breaks things. Choosing to do what’s wrong brings sadness, hurt, and brokenness into the world. God didn’t create the world to be broken and does not want sin in our lives. Our sin starts to separate us from God. But the good news and the greatest story is that God loves us so much that he sent Jesus to die on the cross for us, and take all our sin. He fixed what was broken, and gives us new life.

Discussion Questions:

• Why do you think it’s easy for us to choose to do what’s wrong?
