Just a fun introduction to teaching on the power of the tongue.

Magic Trick (Don't worry, you CAN do this - because you don't really DO anything.) Show ...

God wants us all to go up to heaven - and it is whether you have Jesus inside that determines that.

Time is always passing and we cannot get it back. Someday, the ultimate alarm will go off and we will meet God.

When YOU accept Jesus as your Savior, He wants to leave His mark on you - a transformed life! And in exchange for your giving your life to Him, He will protect you from the Enemy and the ultimate consequences of your sin.

Jesus is the only way to heaven, He is like the Key to Heaven!

Where we build our life is important – Will we build it on God’s Ways or World’s.

What we build our life UPON is important. We must build it upon the WORD OF GOD, not the wisdom of the world.

Many magic tricks rely on false assumptions...

Being connected to God gives you power.

We all need a source of power outside of ourselves, or we will get drained spiritually.

How we can protect ourselves from the attacks of the enemy.

It is foolish to think that if we allow bad things into our life that good will come out.

Sin gets in the way of God being able to do things in our life.

This is some introductory information for using the "Kids in the Word" Kid's Church curriculum from Kidology.org  

Jesus rose from the dead to fix the problem of death once and for all.

The Bible is like .....

You look in the mirror and see what needs to be fixed before you are presentable to the world, but God’s Word shows us what we need to fix to be presentable to God and others.

God is the perfect Father.

Just as real glasses help many us see objects in perspective, spiritual glasses can help us see things with a godly perspective.

Here is a great 'back to school' lesson that shares the Gospel using school supplies.

The book of Acts contains amazing stories of faith and courage. It is easy to think of these heroes as being extra special or extra spiritual, but they were ordinary people, just like us! Kids can be challenged to be bold and brave for God in their neighborhoods and schools!

The Bumbling Duo Discover and Discuss the Trinity.  

This lesson uses the examples of several women in the book Acts to teach that we need to discover what our gifts and abilities are, and then use them for God and His Kingdom!

The bumbling duo saves the world from a mother who was forgotten on Mother's Day—and all children are warned to love their mothers.

Everyone loves to be encouraged! We all like compliments and pats on the back. Barnabus was given his name because he was known for encouragement. This lesson’s aim is to challenge kids to become encouragers – to be the kind of kids that build others up rather than tear others down. Our human instinct when we are hurt or attacks is to tear the other down, but in this lesson they will learn that when they build others up – everyone succeeds!  

A complete lesson with MANY activities on the theme of the new year. Use the whole lesson or just parts of it.

Every kid has people in their life that seem hopelessly lost. Bullies that pick on them, or stuck up girls that look down on them, or mean adults who make life hard. It is easy to write them off as ‘bad people’ but kids need to learn that everyone is loved by God and no one is a ‘lost cause’ or beyond God’s reach. It may surprise them to learn that the Apostle Paul was once an arch enemy of God – he deserved to be ‘zapped’ but God chose instead to forgive Saul and turn his zeal and energy to good, and renamed him Paul. Kids need to pray for and be hopeful for even the meanest and toughest people in their lives, if they can learn to do that, they will be started on the path to being a change agent in the lives of others their whole life!  

This lesson can serve as an Easter lesson as well as an introduction to a unit on the book of Acts. Kids love super heroes because (like adults) kids both wish they were more powerful and that they could have help when in need. Well, Jesus meets both those needs. When we need help – He is there, and He invites us to more than just ordinary people, he calls us to be heroes for him! A hero is someone who puts the needs of others above their own needs, and kids do that every time they witness for God! Jesus proved he was the ultimate super hero because not only could he do amazing things, but he did something no else had ever done or ever will do: He was able to raise Himself from the dead! And if he can raise himself, he most certainly can raise us too!

Evolution is not a science, it is a theory that turns to science for evidence, but IT is not science. Creation and evolution are the same in that regard – what differs is the evidence!

This unit is PACKED with lesson ideas, skits, puppet routines, crafts, puzzles, and much more! A great download to teach or supplement ANY Christmas unit!

This lesson introduces children to the origin of sin into our world, but also touches on the appeal of sin that remains even today. The creation lesson laid the foundation for our creation and our being made ‘free’ and the last lesson on being made in the image of God that is stained, this lesson will bring them together with Adam and Eve’s fall with a two-fold application. First, that Jesus has provided salvation, and secondly, that we need to fight temptation daily so that we don’t also make mistakes (sin) that can have long lasting consequences.

Explain the importance of putting Jesus first in your life!

Sometimes the things of the world appear to be more attractive than the things of God, but we have to remember that in the long run, choosing God’s Way will always be better!

Be careful not to lie. The key is to tell the truth, just not the ‘whole truth’ because that is what the world/Satan does.

Satan traps you by tempting you. He makes you think it is only a little lie or a small thing and that will give you a lot of pleasure.

What is a muzzle? Do people ever need muzzles?

Demonstrate the phone and talk about how helpful it is. (for talking to friends and family, getting help, directions, reminders, etc.)

Don't buy the lie of evolution.

Where did the world come from?

We need to get a grip on God!

The “Magic Box” - Show a box empty, and then ask kids what they would like for you to make ‘appear’ in the box…

Sin causes friendships and relationships to be torn.

Imagine you are all alone and lost in the woods and a giant monster is chasing you and you trip....

Step aside, Sam I Am, Jimmy Jim is here, and he wants you to try Jesus! This is the classic Dr. Seuss story, "Green Eggs and Ham" rewritten by the Kidologist with Jimmy Jim trying to get a grumpy old man to try Jesus - in a house, with a mouse, or in a box with a fox, etc. It is a fun way to illustrate the value of witnessing persistently.

Lots of people try to predict the future, in books, magazines, and on TV, but the truth is, you can’t! It is impossible because NO ONE HAS BEEN THERE – but God HAS been there, He is there!

A story of a 17 year old girl having her Faith in Jesus Christ being tested by her boss.

Bunny and caterpillar learn some lessons about how God answers our prayers indirectly or does not answer them for a reason.

A boy believes that he is getting 50 bicycles from his grandpa, when really he is getting 50 bicycle playing cards.
