We are continuing our study about the time of the Judges in Children’s Ministry. We are learning that the fair punishment for sin is death. But as our memory verse for this unit, Romans 6:23, reminds us, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Who is the strongest person you have ever known? This week, we are learning about Samson, a really strong man who was one of the people God called to turn the nation of Israel’s eyes from themselves and point them to God. (Judges 13-16) Unfortunately, Samson did not live the life he was supposed to lead. Samson’s sin led to his own death, but God used his death to save the Israelites from their enemies.

Use the Family Devotional to learn more as a family this week. Samson’s story reminds us of Jesus. Fortunately, Jesus lived the live he was supposed to live. Jesus never sinned, but God sent Him to die on the cross and rise again to rescue people from sin and give them eternal life. Thank you, Jesus, for paying the wage for our sin!

The Family Devotional includes opportunities for families to read and memorize God’s Word, share a worship experience, do activities and more!

Registration for our Family Experience with MrJ, August 1-4, 2022 from 5:00-8:30 PM, is now open! Registration and information is available ONLINE.
