Kids Care – Hey! It’s Not Fair!

Hey! It’s Not Fair!

We all know what it feels like to have the short end of the stick sometimes. Maybe you’ve been treated unjustly and don’t think you’re getting what you deserve. Have you ever wanted to just shout out, “Hey, it’s not fair.” Whatever the situation, God calls us to cry out to him, but he also challenges us to cry out on behalf of the poor.

As we read the news or our social media feeds, it becomes more and more apparent that global economic inequity is a growing problem. It appears that the rich are getting richer and the poor even poorer. The gap seems to grow wider every day. It seems unjust that in a world of abundance, nearly one in nine people do not have enough to eat. Twice as many girls as boys will never be given the chance to go to school. It’s not fair!

Kids Care – Hey! It’s Not Fair! is an opportunity for our children to look at the issues caused by inequity in our world. This five lesson children’s resource will help you to look at these problems from a biblical perspective and encourage your children’s group to engage the idea of global disparity through prayer, games, activities, stories, and fundraising suggestions.
