The Kid
One of the best parts of the Christmas season? The way it reminds us that Jesus — a Kid born into the middle of nowhere in a place so small, so inconsequential that it didn’t even register on a map — changed everything, both then and now. This series will help your kid realize that, because of Jesus’ arrival, everything from how they see themselves, their situations, their fears, and the people in their lives can change for the better.
WEEK 1: Christmas is about the Kid who changed everything. (Luke 2:1-7, John 1:46)
WEEK 2: The Kid shows us that Christmas is for everyone. (Luke 2:8-16, Matthew 2:1-2, Matthew 2:9-11a, Matthew 2:16)
WEEK 3: The Kid changes how you can see your fear. (Luke 1:28, Luke 1:30-33)
WEEK 4: The Kid changes everything, especially you. (John 3:16, John 10:10)
REMEMBER THIS
Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod... So the family went and lived in a town called Nazareth. Matthew 2:1, 23, NLT
