‘Just a Kid?!’ Teaching Series

AIM: The ‘Just a Kid?!’ Teaching series is all about helping children to see that they are never too young to know who they are in Christ and to do great things for Jesus – they can start right now. We pray that this series is a blessing in your group.

These sessions are designed to be ran as separate stand alone lessons or as part of a series. If you are using the full series we suggest that you keep the emphasis off serving within the ‘Saved By God’ and ‘Chosen By God’ sessions and simply focus on being saved and chosen. The serving element is covered in session 6 of the series.
