It's a King Thing

Our new Sunday school term and curriculum begins on January 24.  Each lesson is designed with a bible story, a bible truth and a God Print (values learned when biblical teaching is applied to the world). Many of the bible stories are interactive and the children are able to participate in the story.  The lessons are centered on the tales of royalty in the bible-good kings, bad kings, good queens, bad queens-more than a dozen biblical stories in all.
