Current Unit: The Southern Kingdom of Judah
God called Jeremiah to tell the people about a new covenant in which sin can be forgiven once and for all. Judah continued in sin and was removed from the land. God was right to punish His people for their sin, but He kept His promise to provide a king through David’s family. Ultimately, God punished our sin through His Son, Jesus, and made Him our King forever.
Song
Big Picture Question
- How did God plan to fix what sin broke? Before He created the world, God planned to send the Messiah to save sinners.
Memory Verse
- "If my people turn from their evil ways, then I will forgive their sins and heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14
- If my people (put arms out in front of waist facing up)
- Turn from their evil ways (act like you’re pushing something away to the left with both hands)
- Then I will forgive their sins (bring arms back around and cross at your chest)
- And heal their land (spread arms out toward waist with palms down)
