The Devotional Life of the Sunday School Teacher
Author: James Russell Miller
Publisher: Darolt Books
ISBN: 6586145775
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
One of the most significant words in the teaching of Jesus, is that in which he gives his command concerning the care of the children. He asked Peter a question, "Do you love me?" and when he got a satisfactory answer, he said to him, "Feed my lambs." He had in mind the figure of a shepherd. David had sung, "The Lord is my shepherd." Jesus himself had used the figure to describe his own tender watchfulness over his people. They are his sheep. The children are the lambs. The word used here means, "little lambs." This suggests that the very youngest children are included. They were infants that were once brought to Jesus, whom the disciples would have kept away, but whom he welcomed so warmly, saying "Allow the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not." This book will help people teach children in Sunday School and in ministries dedicated to teaching children.

Super Bible Games for Ages 8-12

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The "tween" years can be a scary and complicated time in a child's life. Dealing with rising expectations, peer pressure and discovering one's self can be overwhelming. These 46 games will engage and reinforce important Christian values and lessons in a fun and playful way. Each game corresponds with a Bible story or situation so that the children are not only listening to the stories, but engaging in an activity that utilizes other senses to create a fun and multi-faceted learning experience! Studies have shown that game play is one of the most effective teaching tools for keeping children's attention. These games are perfect for 8-12 year olds, but can easily be adapted for other ages. The activities are designed to be played after reading the related Bible story. For example, after the story of Samson and Delilah is read, play 'The Good Apple/Bad Apple Game' to illustrate how easily negative influences can affect us and how to resist peer pressure. Recite the bolded teaching script to make connections between the Bible story, the game and real-life situations. Use the discussion questions to encourage deeper personal connections and understanding of the lesson. Finally, the related bible verses found at the end of each game have been carefully chosen to reinforce the learning concept from another section of the Bible and encourage further reading. Thankfulness, patience, teamwork, persistence, obedience, honor, respect and truthfulness are just a few of the topics addressed throughout these lessons. Overall the emphasis is on the vastness of God's love for us so dig into His word and have fun!

Show Them Jesus
Author: Jack Klumpenhower
Publisher: New Growth Press
ISBN: 1939946409
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
In this transformative resource for youth workers, children's ministry teachers, parents, and VBS volunteers, Jack Klumpenhower teaches how to discover the gospel connections in every Bible story. Show Them Jesus is an instruction manual for teachers of kids and teens written by a lay Bible teacher with thirty years of experience. With a simple framework and real-life examples, Jack helps teachers identify and communicate the heart of the gospel to each child in each lesson. Show Them Jesus challenges the culture of low-stakes, low-expectations teaching and invites teachers to do nothing less than teach and treasure the good news of Jesus—in every lesson. Instead of leaving kids with lessons about changing their behavior, Show Them Jesus offers a new way by sweetly, masterfully, and powerfully showing kids how the gospel really applies to their lives and changes them for eternity. In sharing example after example from his years of experience, Jack provides readers with a more enriched view of Jesus and how to teach this gospel perspective in a classroom setting. This life-changing tool will complement and enrich existing lessons or teaching materials, and it's appropriate for teachers of children and teens in any setting. Millions of church kids are growing up and deciding to leave the church. If we are not primarily teaching our kids about God's love for us in Christ, we may miss our opportunity to capture their hearts. Don't miss your opportunity to show them Jesus.
