  1. Family Crosstrainers Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart. Recite them to your children and talk about them when you are at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you rise. (Deuteronomy 6:6-7)

  2. We Can Turn to God When We Sin 2 Samuel 11:1-12:10 Psalm 51:1-12

  3. We Can Turn to God When We Sin • Think about a time you got in trouble when you were a kid. What did you do? What were the consequences? • What did that experience show you about the effects of sin? On you? On the one who caught you? On your children today? • Think about a recent time one of your children did something wrong…

  4. 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17, 26-27, 12:1-7a In the spring when kings march out to war, David sent Joab with his officers and all Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David remained in Jerusalem. One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing-- a very beautiful woman. So David sent someone to inquire about her, and he reported, "This is Bathsheba, daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah the Hittite."

  5. 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17, 26-27, 12:1-7a David sent messengers to get her, and when she came to him, he slept with her. Now she had just been purifying herself from her uncleanness. Afterward, she returned home. The woman conceived and sent word to inform David: "I am pregnant."

  6. 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17, 26-27, 12:1-7a The next morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah. In the letter he wrote: Put Uriah at the front of the fiercest fighting, then withdraw from him so that he is struck down and dies. When Joab was besieging the city, he put Uriah in the place where he knew the best enemy soldiers were. Then the men of the city came out and attacked Joab, and some of the men from David's soldiers fell in battle; Uriah the Hittite also died.

  7. 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17, 26-27, 12:1-7a David told the messenger, "Say this to Joab: 'Don't let this matter upset you because the sword devours all alike. Intensify your fight against the city and demolish it.' Encourage him.“ When Uriah's wife heard that her husband Uriah had died, she mourned for him.

  8. 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17, 26-27, 12:1-7a So the LORD sent Nathan to David. When he arrived, he said to him: There were two men in a certain city, one rich and the other poor. The rich man had a large number of sheep and cattle, but the poor man had nothing except one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up, living with him and his children. It shared his meager food and drank from his cup; it slept in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.

  9. 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17, 26-27, 12:1-7a Now a traveler came to the rich man, but the rich man could not bring himself to take one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare for the traveler who had come to him. Instead, he took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for his guest. David was infuriated with the man and said to Nathan: "As the LORD lives, the man who did this deserves to die! Because he has done this thing and shown no pity, he must pay four lambs for that lamb.“ Nathan replied to David, "You are the man!

  10. We Can Turn to God When We Sin 2 Samuel 12:13a David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD.”

  11. Psalm 51: 1-4, 9-12 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me. Against you, you alone, have I sinned, and done what is evil in your sight, so that you are justified in your sentence and blameless when you pass judgment. Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.

  12. Psalm 51: 1-4, 9-12 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your holy spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and sustain in me a willing spirit.

  13. We Can Turn to God When We Sin • God wants us to repent • Repenting means turning to God • Repenting allows us to receive God’s forgiveness • No matter how bad the sin, God wants us to be forgiven • Forgiveness doesn’t get rid of the consequences of our actions

  14. Jesus Connection We repent (re-turn toward God) because God turns toward us in Jesus Christ and frees us from our bondage to Sin

  15. We Can Turn to God When We Sin How can you make it easier for your children to ask for forgiveness without excusing what they’ve done?
