"All Things New": Weekly Leader Training—Unit 35, Session 4: Obeying from Love
Understanding the depth and breadth of the gospel cannot happen until we have received Jesus Christ’s death on the cross as payment for our sin. It is the result of a lifelong journey that starts with God’s love and begins because of God’s initiative. The apostle John was able to speak about God’s love on a simple level, in...

“All Things New”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 35, Session 4—Children of God
Reading parts of 1 John can be confusing—if we don’t understand the letter’s context.

John was writing to the early...

"All Things New": Weekly Leader Training—Unit 35, Session 2: Clinging to the Promises of God
There’s nothing more humbling than being on a boat in the middle of a large body of water. You come to realize the level of faith you have in that boat to keep you safe. It’s convicting to grasp how often we can place our trust in something that is made by human hands and yet how hard it...

“All Things New”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 35, Session 2—Paul's Shipwreck
This week, we wrap up the Book of Acts and study the culmination of Paul’s journey to Rome. The shipwreck along the way garners most of the attention of these final chapters, and rightfully so, but I want us to turn our attention to the last two verses of the book. 30 Paul stayed two whole years in his...
