Every great movie tells a great story. When we see those stories played out on the big screen, we can learn a littlemore about ourselves and the world around us. Jesus knew how powerful stories could be, and he made them a bigpart of how he taught his followers. In this 5-week series, kids will hear some of the stories Jesus shared that can helpthem see the big picture of a life spent following God. Kids will see thatGod helps us know what's true,the wayswecan give back to God,howGod sends us helpers,thatGod gives us second chances,and howwe belong in God'sfamily.​
