Week Three: God Is Always Willing To Give Second Chances….
By the end of this lesson, kids will learn that God can set them back on track if they admit their mistakes. Sometimes we make mistakes. Huge mistakes. But with God, it's never too late to move in a new direction. God loves us, in spite of our bad decisions. And even though we continue to make bad choices, he can use us to share his love with others. When we give our lives to Jesus, we are telling him, “I’m sorry. Please help me make this right.” It’s the first step in the right direction, the first step down the path God wants us to follow. Many people get so down on themselves for their bad choices. They begin to think they are truly bad people and don’t think anyone can forgive them. Jesus can! He forgave a liar like Jacob. He forgave other sinners in the Bible too. There’s nothing you can do that Jesus can’t forgive and make right. That’s something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. As godly kids, we can be thankful that Jesus loved us enough to die for us. We can be thankful that he can forgive all our sins. And we can be thankful that no matter what we’ve done, Jesus can make things right again!
Remember:
In today’s lesson, we’re going to learn about Peter and the big mistake he made. Peter was one of Jesus’ first disciples. He spent a lot of time traveling with Jesus. He watched him perform miracles and heard him teach amazing lessons to huge crowds of people. Jesus was one of Peter’s best friends. But, Peter made a mistake and turned against Jesus. When he was in a dangerous situation, he denied knowing Jesus to protect himself. Jesus still loved him. Like Peter, we remain part of Jesus’ family, even when we fail Him.

WHAT IS THE BIBLE: The Story Begins
WHAT YOU SAY:
During the Last Supper, the disciples argue about who is the greatest. Peter declares that he is ready to go to prison or even die for Jesus. Jesus responds by telling Peter that he will deny Him three times before the rooster crows the next morning. Then He adds, “When you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.” That night, when Jesus is arrested, Peter cuts off the High Priest’s servant’s ear and wants to fight, but Jesus stops him. The soldiers take Jesus to the High Priest’s house. Peter follows. Three times he is identified as one of the disciples. Three times he denies it. The third time, Jesus turns and looks at him. Peter remembers Jesus’ words. He goes out and weeps bitterly.
