Here is the latest handout for the Romans Study for Kids. You can find any previous information in this study in my Romans Project category.
Romans 2:1-11
1 Therefore you have no excuse, everyone of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.
2 And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things.
3 But do you suppose this, O man, when you pass judgment on those who practice such things and do the same yourself, that you will escape the judgment of God?
4 Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?
5 But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,
6 who will render to each person according to his deeds:
7 to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality,eternal life;
8 but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.
9 There will be tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek,
10 but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
11 For there is no partiality with God

This is what the Pre-K through 5th grade studied last Sunday in Children’s Church. They will get this handout to take home with them after we have completed all of Romans 2 in class together. I hand out the take home study at the conclusion of each chapter (unless there is a major divide within the chapter) so that they can over the chapter at home with their parents. Their parents are also studying through the book of Romans in “Big Church”.
