Sometimes kids are right on!
Like at 5-day club last week - a little girl was asked how Jesus came to earth. She replied, "He came down from heaven and he was a baby, and his parents birthed him."
An eight-year-old boy explained Cain's punishment as "he had to walk away from God and others."
And a little girl who accepted Jesus as her Savior was positive that she was "part of God's family."
Other times, kids' thinking is just a little mixed up.
- "Jesus gave us our blood when he died."
- "Jesus shared his blood on the cross" (explaining Hebrews 9:22).
- "Adam and Eve left the garden 'cause they ate them pears and sinned."
Kids can be very confused: one little girl announced at club, "you won't sin when you're a mom!"
Another girl said "I thought Joseph was Jesus' father", when Jesus was called God's son.
It's an honor to teach kids the truth about Jesus... but it's fun to hear what they think you said about him too. :)
