John 3:16

Cade is in AWANA again this year. I was working on his verse for the week yesterday. It's John 3:16, a familiar verse to many people. And Cade almost had it down. We were working on it in sections...

"For God so loved the world..."

Good Cade! That's it. Ok, now say the next part...

"that He gave His one and only Son...."
Yes! Good! And???

"that whoever believes in Him... will get a treat?"
Hmmm. Not quite, Cade.

To be fair, we hadn't gone over the last phrase of that verse yet. Cade was just guessing at the rest of the verse. So I told Cade that yes, it is a treat that you get. But not candy. Not candy, son. Something even better. I don't think Cade can imagine anything better.
