OK, friends! 1-2-3! Eyes on me! (Kids look at emcee.) It’s great to see all of your eyeballs! My name’s ______, and I’m your emcee! Let’s vote on something. If you do not like talking on the phone, raise your hand. (Some kids raise their hands.) Good to know. Now, moving on—listen up as our Konnect HQ friends talk about our Konnect rules!

I love to honor God with my offering! Now, let me read you today’s point: Everyone sins, but God’s grace wins. Say it with me loud and proud! (Together with kids) Everyone sins, but God’s grace wins. Great! Now, I asked you earlier who doesn’t like to talk on the phone—well, there’s someone on Konnect HQ who isn’t loving it so much today, either! Let’s watch and see who it is!

It was tough to hit that target—but your small group leaders gave you grace, and you got a pretty sweet bracelet, anyway! God’s grace is like that—we don’t deserve it, but we get to be forever friends with Him when we follow Jesus. Let’s say our point about that together. (Together with kids) Everyone sins, but God’s grace wins. That’s it! That’s what you need to know! Now, watch this quick video, and don’t forget to stay close to your small group leader while we worship God!

Those are some good rules, and participating in everything we do in here is a great way to follow them. It may even impress your small group leader! Or … You might even impress me! Which is a good thing, because we’ve got some offering to pick up. I’m checking right now to see who would be great at that! Watch our offering video, and I’ll choose a couple of kids! (Choose helpers.)

Luke tried to be nice, but even he couldn’t do it! The fact is, we all mess up sometimes. We all have sinned, and we all deserve to be punished for it. Thankfully, God has given us grace, instead—He forgives us when we choose to follow Jesus. Let’s say the Bible verse about that together. (Do motions and say in rhythm with kids) Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. Great! Now let’s play a game about grace in our small groups!

Okay! Say the ABCs with me one more time! (Together with kids) Admit, believe, choose! If you want Jesus to be your leader, tell your small group leader and let your family know! I’m gonna pray for you guys. Bow your heads! (Kids and leaders bow their heads.) God, please remind us that we all need grace. Thank you for your forgiveness through Jesus. In His name we pray, amen! Now stick with your small group until you get checked out!
