Who doesn't love it?
On the 14th, it was my turn for sharing time. The topic… “Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, all mankind may be saved.” – A concept that is difficult for adult to understand fully, let alone children between the ages of 3-11.
I managed to pull off a very simple, yet very powerful visual. With the help of styrofoam (sin) and chemicals (atonement), I was able to demonstrate how the Savior atoned for ALL of the sins and sorrows of ALL the people who live or have lived on the earth. As we repent, Christ will take away the burden of our sins. We can be forgiven and made clean… our sins will “disappear”.
I have since, received feedback from a few parents that this sharing time has made a tremendous impact on their children and they have since presented the same lesson to their own extended family members for Family Home Evening.
This is what makes it all worth it!
That is soooo neat!
