Scene 1/7
Scene 1
Sin is choosing against God’s good way.
Sin is choosing against God’s good way. That means doing what God says is wrong or refusing a good thing we know we should do. Sin can hurt our relationship with God and the people around us. Romans 3:23 says everyone has sinned, so this is not about labeling one person as the “bad kid.” What does that truth help us remember?

“For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God. To him therefore who knows to do good, and doesn’t do it, to him it is sin.”

Romans 3:23; James 4:17Sin includes doing what is wrong and refusing good we know we should do. Everyone needs God’s grace; no one is beyond his love.
No wrong answers — this is yours.

Whichever you pick, we’ll walk one more scene before the reflection.
