Intro Konnection Point Konnection Worship Konnection

Hi, kids! Welcome to Konnect! I’m so glad you’re here! My name’s ______ and I’m your emcee! Raise your hand up high if love to watch videos, TV, and movies! (Kids raise up their hands.) Wow! That’s a lot of you! It’s a good thing we’re having a very special Konnect today! We’ll actually watch some videos and commercials you may have seen on TV or YouTube before. Before we start that, let’s go over our Konnect rules! Watch with me!

It’s so great to be able to give to God! Let’s learn today’s point. It says, “Make a pure choice. Only watch what honors God.” Repeat it after me loud and proud! Make a pure choice. … (Kids repeat) Make a pure choice. … … Only watch what honors God! (Kids repeat) … Only watch what honors God! Super! Now here’s the moment we’ve been waiting for! Watch in the Konnect show to see which commercials and videos you’ve seen before!

Looks like everyone had a favorite commercial this week! And it looks like there was someone in your group who helped you figure out what was pure in those commercials! They’re here every week, and they’re here for you! They’re your small group leader. Turn to your leader and give them a high five! (Kids high five their leaders.) Great job! Now, get ready to worship God with your loudest praise voice!

Giving Konnection Verse Konnection Life Konnection

Did you notice? We’ve got three rules! When you follow them and make choices that put others first, your small group leader might just give you a Dot sticker! If you get a Dot, you can take it to the Konnect Window after we’re finished to get points and earn awesome prizes! Okay! I’ll choose a couple of friends to pick up the offering while we sit up straight and tall and learn what offering is all about. (Choose helpers.)

Wow! When you watch TV, videos, or movies, you might just be reminded of a truth about God! You also might have a choice to say, “No!” to watching something that really doesn’t honor God at all! Tell your neighbor, “No!” (Kids tell their neighbor) No! Great! Let’s practice our Bible verse. Say it with me. (Do motions and say in rhythm with kids) Titus 1:15 To people who are pure, all things are pure. But to those who have twisted minds and don’t believe, nothing is pure. … Great job! Now let’s see which videos and commercials our small groups liked the best today!

I’m so glad when I hear the ABCs! They remind me that Jesus makes us right with God! If you want Jesus to be your leader, tell your small group leader today, and they can let your family know. There’s something very exciting about that: baptism is next week! Baptism is a way to show everyone around you that you chose Jesus to be your leader. If you chose Jesus as your leader, ask your parents if you can get signed up to be baptized! Now it’s time to talk about what we can do this week to watch out for what’s pure and turn off what’s not. God will help us know the difference!

Intro Konnection Point Konnection Worship Konnection

Hi, kids! Welcome to Konnect! I’m so glad you’re here! My name’s ______ and I’m your emcee! Don’t forget it! There’s someone else here that you really need to get to know—your small group leader! Make sure you know their name right now! (Kids check small group leader’s name) Okay, pop quiz—shout out your leader’s name on 3! 1—2—3! (Kids shout out their small group leader’s name.) Great job, guys! Now let’s watch a quick rules video with our friends, Ray and Luke.

It’s so great to be able to give to God! Let’s learn today’s point. It says, “Love pure! Love others the way God does.” Repeat it after me loud and proud! Love pure! … (Kids repeat) Love pure! … … Love others the way God does. (Kids repeat) … Love others the way God does. Super! Now I know Valentine’s Day is coming up. Maybe that’s why our point is all about love. Let’s watch Konnect HQ to find out!

I watched all of you play that game, and your small groups can definitely tell the difference between God’s love, and mushy gushy selfish love! I also noticed someone in your group who helped you figure it out! They’re here every week, and they’re here for you! They’re your small group leader. Turn to your leader and give them a high five! (Kids high five their leaders.) Great job! Now, get ready to worship God with your loudest praise voice!

Giving Konnection Verse Konnection Life Konnection

So we’ve only got three rules. Not too bad, right? When you follow them and make choices that put others first, your small group leader might just give you a Dot sticker! If you get a Dot, you can take it to the Konnect Window after we’re finished to get points and earn awesome prizes! Okay! I’ll choose a couple of friends to pick up the offering while we sit up straight and tall and learn what offering is all about. (Choose helpers.)

Konnect HQ figured out real love is putting others first, being kind, and respecting them the way God does. That’s way better than Valentine’s Day cards and mushy gushy stuff! Tell your neighbor, “Don’t be mushy gushy!” (Kids tell their neighbor) Don’t be mushy gushy! Great! Let’s practice our Bible verse that tells us why we love others. Say it with me. (Do motions and say in rhythm with kids) John 13:35 “If you love one another, everyone will know you are my disciples.” Great job! Now let’s play a game to see if you know the difference between godly love and selfish, mushy, gushy love.

I’m so glad when I hear the ABCs! They remind me that Jesus makes us right with God! If you want Jesus to be your leader, tell your small group leader today, and they can let your family know! Today is a very special day for some of the kids here, because they were baptized! That means they believe the ABCs, they live a life that follows Jesus, and they want the whole world to know! If you were baptized this weekend, tell your small group all about it! Then your small groups can talk about how to love others God’s way.

Intro Konnection Point Konnection Worship Konnection

It’s great to see all of you! My name’s ______ and I’m your emcee! All this month, we’re talking about being pure. Clean. Like soap or nice, clean water. But I’m not talking about when you’re dirty and you need a bath … I’m talking about keeping icky, sticky sin right out of your heart! Repeat after me, “Pure heart!” (Kids repeat) Pure heart! Super! Now listen up as our friends Ray and Luke talk about our Konnect rules!

I love to honor God with my offering! Okay, let’s learn today’s point. It says, “Stay pure. Say, ‘No!’ to sin.” Repeat after me loud and proud! Stay pure. … (Kids repeat) Stay pure. … … Say, “No!” to sin. (Kids repeat) Say, “No!” to sin. Way to go! Now, I heard some talk of hidden candy and stolen sunglasses on Konnect HQ—let’s see what’s going on, and whether or not the crew chooses to stand up to temptation!

Eww! Sin is nasty when we let it build up in our hearts. I’m so thankful Jesus always loves us and will make us pure again when we ask for His forgiveness. And I want to stay pure, too! Today’s point can help all of us with that. Say it with me! (Together with kids) Stay pure. Say, “No!” to sin. If you get tempted, you do not have to sin! God will give you a way out! Tell your neighbor, “You’ve got a way out!” (Kids tell their neighbor) You’ve got a way out! Well done, friends. Now we can learn about worship!

Giving Konnection Verse Konnection Life Konnection

Great listening! Now show me what a good audience looks like … Fantastic! Participating in everything is a great way to follow our Konnect rules, and it may even get you a Dot sticker from your small group leader. If you get one, you can show it off to your family so they know what a great job you did, and you can take it to the Konnect Window to get points for prizes! Now, while you learn what offering’s all about in this next video, I’ll choose a couple of friends to pick up the offering! (Choose helpers.)

Wow! At Konnect HQ, they had to get the tempting stuff out of there and help each other out to say, “No!” to sin. God gave them a way out so they could stay pure! Let’s say the Bible verse about it together. (Do motions and say in rhythm with kids) 1 Corinthians 10:13 But when you are tempted, God will give you a way out so that you can stand up under it. Great job! Now we’ve got a little science experiment to do in our small groups—and let me just say—it’s gonna show how gross sin gets when you don’t say, “No!” to it.

Okay! Say the ABCs with me! (Together with kids) Admit, believe, choose! That’s great! If you want to start following Jesus today, let your small group leader know, and they’ll talk about it with your family. God kept it simple for us to get to know Him: when we admit our faith in Jesus and follow Him, we’re God’s friends! He’ll help us grow closer to Him. And the closer we grow to God, the better we’ll get at saying, “No!” to the things that tempt us to live our own way instead of God’s way. There’s always a way out, and God will help you to see what it is. Talk to your small groups about that right now!

Intro Konnection Point Konnection Worship Konnection

Welcome to Konnect! My name’s ______ and I’ll be your emcee! This week, we’re talking about what we can do to lead others to choose God’s way instead of sin. Yell out, “Be an example!” (Kids shout out) Be an example! Aww—you sound like a bunch of old grandmas! Try it louder! (Kids shout out) Be an example! That’s better. Now don’t let that thought escape from your head while we watch Ray and Luke break down the rules for us!

I saw some generous kids in here! Today, our point is, “Live pure. Don’t tempt your friends to sin.” Now repeat it after me. Live pure. … (Kids repeat) Live pure. … … Don’t tempt your friends to sin! (Kids repeat) … Don’t tempt your friends to sin! Way to go! Now that you know the point, let’s see what links the crew on Konnect HQ find to bring it home!

Raise your hand up high if your group was the best at getting the pom-poms in the buckets! (Kids raise their hands.) Wow! That’s fantastic! Now, I’ll say the first part of the point, and you kids finish it for me. Ready? (Kids respond.) I can barely hear you! C’mon, are you ready? (Kids respond louder.) Great! Finish it off! Live pure. … (Kids shout out) Don’t tempt your friends to sin. Amazing! Now watch this worship video and get ready to dance and sing for God!

Giving Konnection Verse Konnection Life Konnection

Now, how many rules were there? Show me with your fingers! (Kids hold up 3 fingers.) That’s right, three. Follow them so you have a great time, and some of you might even get Dot stickers from your small group leader! They’re good for points at the Konnect window! Now it’s time to show honor to God with tithes and offerings. Watch the offering video while I choose two friends to pick up the gifts you brought for God! (Choose helpers.)

Looks like Nik and Peyton were not leading each other toward God’s way at first—but then it clicked, and they helped each other do what was right instead! The Bible verse they learned about that can help us, too. Say it with me! (Do motions and say in rhythm with kids) Romans 14:13 … make up your mind not to put anything in your brother’s way that would make him trip and fall. You sounded great! Now we’ve got a game to play to help you figure out how you can be careful around your friends so you’re leading them to God’s way and not to sin!

When I found out Jesus died for me to make me right with God, I was surprised He knew everything about me and still loves me so much! If you want to follow Jesus, let your small group leader know, and they can talk to your family about it. Having Jesus in your heart is the first step in learning what things are good for everybody and what things might tempt others around you. As you get to know Jesus more, you’ll be able to lead others better and better to follow the rules they need to follow and make the choices that keep them pure! Go ahead and talk more about living pure and helping others in your small groups!
