OVERVIEW | This summer, we’re talking about the best friend ever with our kids. We want every child to know that not only is Jesus the best friend ever, but Jesus wants to be THEIR friend . . . forever! We want them to hear over and over that Jesus wants to be their friend forever. And not only does Jesus want to be their friend, but Jesus is a friend worth following. That way, when the time comes, our kids will be ready to follow Jesus here, there, and everywhere!

JUNE | Ready, Set, Move: Follow Jesus Here, There and Everywhere!
OVERVIEW | Since the beginning, God has always been deeply involved in the world. We see God’s handiwork on display in creation. We see God’s love on display through Jesus, who came to rescue us. We respond to God in faith, believing in what we can’t see because of what we can see. When we focus on what we know to be true about God and the world God created, we can have faith in what we can’t see or fully understand. We put that faith into action as we follow Jesus and show His love to the world.
LIFE APP | Faith: Faith is trusting in what you can’t see because of what you can see.
MEMORY VERSE | “Faith is being sure of what we hope for. It is being sure of what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1, NIrV
