A couple of weeks ago, Green Pea's Sunday School teacher shared a story from class with me. She changed the bulletin board in their classroom to an Easter theme, including, among other things, a cross and the words "Thank you Jesus". She gave the kids an in-depth explanation (at least for 4 and 5 year olds) of the significance of Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross to the kids and how under the Mosaic Law people had to sacrifice their best lamb to atone for their sin. She told them that it would be something like if they had to give up a favorite toy when they sin. She concluded by emphasizing how thankful we can all be that Jesus was willing to be the perfect sacrifice for our sin.
Green Pea raised his hand when she asked if there were any questions. "You forgot to put an exclamation point after the 'Thank you Jesus'", he corrected her.
