CRAWLING IN FAITH


Just as we learn to crawl before we can walk, we believe that the foundation for growing in our faith is understanding who God is!

The world was once sad, and our relationships with God were broken, but God had a plan to save us from sadness and sin. He loved us so much, that He sent His son Jesus for a very special reason - to save us from the mistakes and the loneliness that were making us sad! Because of Jesus, we have a way to fix our relationships with God and each other. Because of Jesus, we can live in forever happiness with God!

Who is God? GOD IS A SAVIOR!

WALKING IN FAITH

WHAT IS THE BIBLE?

These Kindergarten brains are getting bigger and bigger each week as we learn more about the Bible.

Sometimes the dark can feel scary. When we can’t see where we’re going, or see what’s around us, it’s easy for us to get lost and confused. But the Bible has an answer - JESUS! The Bible says that Jesus is the light in the darkness. He shines bright and shows us the way when things are feeling dark and scary! The Bible also says that we have the power to be a light, too! This month, we’ll learn that we can shine God’s light when we choose Jesus!

APRIL GROWKIDS SERIES: Glow in the Dark

In the dark, a world of neon colors comes to life. Whether it's the soft green of glow-in-the-dark stars or the bright colors of bioluminescent creatures, light can break through the darkness. When the world needed some light, God sent Jesus because he glows in the dark, and he can teach us how to shine with God's light, too! In this (modified) five-week series through the Gospels, we'll follow Jesus' life leading up to Easter to see some of the ways he can shine bright in our lives. As we explore, we'll see Jesus is the light in the darkness.

SPRINTING IN FAITH

What does it mean to follow Jesus? What does it look like? What does it feel like? God sent the Holy Spirit to live with everyone who believes in Him, and He promised that it would help us answer these tough questions.

When God created humanity, he said it was very good. He created us in His image, not only In physical appearance, but also in the way we could live - meaning we could live a life that would paint a picture of His love and goodness to the rest of the world. God’s GOODNESS isn’t something we can live up to on our own, but choosing to live a life full of choices that follow Jesus can help shine the image of His goodness all over the world!
