The Never Ending Story of God

August 31, 2010

UpStreet (K-5th grade)

This past week we launched the beginning of a new curriculum series for this year. Yes, we are still teaching a big idea each month, and yes, we will still have a bottom line each week.

But this year we are going to spend 10 months tying the big themes of the Bible together in order to help our kids see the BIGGER story of God. We’ll write more about The Never Ending Story of God later.

We started at the very beginning of the story with Creation and Adam and Eve. Our Big Idea for the month is Obedience.

Obedience - Doing what you are asked to do by those who are over you.

As we tell the Bible stories this month, we will be introducing the beginning of The Never Ending Story of God. Themes like: God created the world. God created and loved people. By our disobedience, sin entered into the world.

Think of this video like a “title package” that leads right into the live Bible story telling.

    Love the Video! Our church is currently working on writing curriculum for the major topic of the Bible (currently Creation). I noticed that in September that you said that you had not plans to publish the curriculum then. Has that changed? If so i would like more information. Thanks ~ Jennifer

    That would be great Kendra! Thanks! You are welcome to email me directly using my gmail account. Also my family and I have visited Buckhead before and loved the Childrens department (well we loved everything about the church). I would like to bring the children’s director from our church to visit sometime if that is possible. Again feel free to contact me. Thanks ~ Jennifer
