CityKidz' Stories - Episode 2!

Last night CityKidz' Stories performed Episode 2 "Bad Habit" for the children from the neighborhood.  The same schedule is played through every Wednesday, kids are picked up from their house, dropped off here at the church.  From there they go to the cafe and eat a wholesome meal, then move into the auditorium for the start of the show!

This week a new creature made it's debut, "The Bad Habit"!  The show started off with Lil' Morris trying to ditch this little critter.  Mr. Hinklee and the Bass Monster tried to warn Lil' Morris that bad habits aren't so easily dropped!  Sure enough, The Green Van Villain Gang shows up, with Lil' Morris AND the Bad Habit!  Not only is Lil' Morris back following the Bad Habit, but the whole gang is infected by it too!

But no worries, Bass Monster, as always, has the answer from scripture and what God tells us to do about those things that keep us from Him.  By the end of the night, the kids had learned that bad habits make us feel guilty, and unloved, which is a lie.  Instead we are each loved by God in spite of our bad habits, and if we want to end those habits, we can follow what James tells us in chapter 4 verse 7 of his book, "Submit to God...resist the Devil...he will flee!

The kids even had a chance to offer up some of there bad habits to God by placing them in a food dish for the Bass Monster to devour!

We had a lot of fun, but in the end it all comes to a serious point, do they know the free gift of God through Jesus?  There was a quiet moment at the end of the show, and the kids were taught they are dearly loved by God, and He wants them to know it!  They were taught how Jesus provides the way for us to be able to have that relationship with a God who has no bad habits.  During the invitation, over 10 kids went with counselors to pray and ask Jesus into their heart!

We can see God working in the hearts of these little ones.  When we do a show, kids are coming to know Christ, and seeds are being spread everywhere!  This is the main reason of us being here, to spread the message of love of God through Christ!
