But thinking big often results in missing what's really important - the little things that are the real fruit of our ministry. The little things that make a big difference and, when added up, bring the big impact.

It's time to memorize with DiscipleTown!
"How to Memorize God's Word"The idea of memorizing Scripture can intimidate both kids and adults!  Get started with our new How to Memorize God's Word unit, the latest DiscipleTown Kid's Church curriculum from Karl Bastian and DiscipleLand.

Children will appreciate the incredible mind that God has given them, the importance of memorizing God's Word, and the benefits of doing so.

Furthermore, kids will learn to meditate on Scripture in order to allow it to sink into their very characters and wills, resulting in deeper, richer insights.

Using fun science, they'll know that God has wired them to learn and to apply what they learn.
