Join us for a new 4-week BridgeKidz series from The Sunday School Store, beginning June 7, 2026!
Kids hear that freedom means “do whatever I want.” This series shows what Scripture says: true freedom comes from Jesus—freedom from sin, fear, and selfishness—so we can love God and people.
THE BIG IDEA
Jesus sets us free—then teaches us to use our freedom to worship, live changed, and serve others in love.
MEMORY VERSE
John 8:36
“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”
THEME HOOK
Kids discover the true meaning of freedom.
GOSPEL CONNECTION
Jesus broke the chains of sin by His death and resurrection. When we trust Him, He gives new life and the Spirit’s power to worship in every circumstance and to serve others.
