UNIT OVERVIEWS:

"In the Beginning . . . Growing into a Life of Faith"

 

3 - These Bible story favorites will inspire children to trust and obey God's good and protective guidance.

1 - Celebrate Easter as you help children embrace the truth that Jesus is their King. He is alive, and He is always there for them.

2 - The power of prayer becomes tangible as your class pictures Paul and Silas praying while in prison chains. As the children imagine these men being freed from prison, they can understand how prayer can help them and their friends through anything, anywhere, and anytime.

4 - Children learn how to relate to Jesus as they watch Matthew throwing a party to celebrate his friendship with Jesus; men lowering a paralyzed friend through a roof because they trust Jesus' mercy; a young boy offering his own lunch so Jesus could feed other hungry people; and disciples spending time to learn from the friend who transformed their lives and ours.
