“The Mission Begins”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 29, Session 2—Stephen's Sermon
If you are a little older—more “experienced”—like I am, you can remember a time before passwords. Do you remember those pre-Internet days when the only things we had to remember were locker combinations in school and perhaps a four-digit pin once in a while? How things have changed.

“The Mission Begins”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 29, Session 1—Ananias and Sapphira
Sometimes I wish they had broken chapters in the Bible up differently. Keep in mind that chapters and verses are not part of the inspired Scriptures.

“The Mission Begins”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Christmas—Jesus Was Born
When many of our kids (and us too perhaps) think of Christmas, they think of trees, lights, decorations, presents, special meals, and family gatherings. There is nothing at all wrong with these aspects of the Christmas season, but we know that there is more, much more, to Christmas. In John’s prologue to his Gospel, he provides a fantastic summary...

“The Mission Begins”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 28, Session 2—Peter Healed a Man
Are you weary? Do you feel stretched thin—far too thin? This year has surely been a trying one, hasn’t it? We have taken a beating personally. We have taken a beating in our ministries. And we have taken a beating as a nation, and beyond. What we desperately need right now is rest. We need refreshment. Which is why...
