Welcome to SHINE! KidMin

This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
 
At SHINE! KidMin, our Elementary school kids will learn to let their lights shine for Jesus. On Sunday mornings we use the 252 Kids curriculum by Orange to teach our kids what it means to grow in three key ways
  1. In wisdom: making good, Godly choices
  2. In stature: good physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health
  3. In our relationships with God and people
 
Below you can find an overview of what we are learning this month during Sunday school!
 
On Wednesday nights our Children’s activities are called G.L.O.W. or Go Light Our World. During this time, our goal is to teach kids how they can share the light of Christ with the world through music and as we continue our weekly Bible lessons.

This month our SHINE! Kids are talking about the connection between SELF-CONTROL and God’s character, as shown through God’s Big Story, the Bible.

There are a lot of choices that we need to make in life. Some of those choices can help us grow and shape us positively. Others can pull us in different directions, leaving us struggling to figure out which choice is best. What do we do when we’re confronted with all of these choices? Do we rush ahead? Or do we pause and let God lead us toward the best way to act? Self-control is a fruit of the Spirit. It’s one of the ways we can tell that God is transforming our lives and that we’re growing in our faith. Thankfully, we don’t have to find self-control on our own. When we follow Jesus, God’s Spirit is with us and helps us make the wise choice.
During the month of October we will be looking at these lessons from the Bible:
  • Jesus Tempted in the Wilderness – Luke 4:1-13 – Be ready to do the right thing.
  • Choose Your Words Carefully– Proverbs 12:18 – Think before you speak.
  • David Spares Saul’s Life – 1 Samuel 24 – Think before you act.
  • Too Much of a Good Thing – Proverbs 25:16 – Know when to stop.
