MARCH 22 BIBLE STORY SUMMARY
​In Luke 15:11-24, Jesus shares a parable to help people understand God’s amazing grace and forgiveness. A son came to his father and asked for his share of the inheritance. This broke the father’s heart, but he went ahead and gave the son what he wanted. The son wasted every last penny and hit rock bottom. He decided to go home to his father and ask forgiveness. The father was waiting with arms open wide and ready to have his son home. Our "Bottom Line" from this Bible Story is: Everyone needs to be forgiven. Everyone at some point will do something that hurts another person, and we’ve all done something that goes against what God wants for us. We all need forgiveness.  Thankfully, through Jesus, God offers forgiveness no matter what we’ve done.

To help illustrate forgiveness for them, I decided to reach back into my childhood and pull out my old trusted friends—Rocks. I want my kids to know that when they’ve been hurt by other people’s words  . . .

DISCUSSION TOPIC:
Read this month's memory verse:  "Put up with one another. Forgive one another if you are holding something against someone. Forgive, just as the Lord forgave you." COLOSSIANS 3:13, NIrV
​
Ask your child: "Is there anyone at school, home, or church that you need to forgive or that needs forgiveness from you?" Remind them that everyone needs to be forgiven and tell them about a time you had to choose forgiveness or when someone forgave you.
