Summary: “I’m sorry” are two of the hardest words for someone to say. Even when the person who hurt us finally says those two words, it can be even harder for us to say,“I forgive you.” Forgiving those who have hurt us is not an easy thing to do, but not doing it is even worse. For a Christian, that’s not an option. We must not live our lives holding unforgiveness towards someone, no matter what they have done to hurt us. If we do, it hurts us much more than it ever hurts them. In this lesson, the children will learn from the story of Jacob and Esau. They will learn a healthy way to handle conflict - even in the family - and how to forgive others.
