Discussion Starter:
We’ve all done it. In an instant we’ve done the one thing we weren’t supposed to do for the whole world to see.
In this case, Manuela gave a contestant on The Price is Right a brand new car when she wasn’t supposed to, which is awesome. But in our case our mistake might not be so awesome.
The Bible says that we all make mistakes, we all sin. (Romans 3:23) But the good news is that that Jesus offers forgiveness, even when we sin accidentally. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)
3 Questions:
- When was a time you messed up but it turned out great?
- Would you rather win a $20,000 car or $10,000 in cash?
- Is it easier for you to notice your own mistakes or mistakes in others? Why?
Chew on this:
Is there a difference between an intentional and accidental sin in God’s eyes?
