The Heart of Worship
What comes to your mind when I mention King David from the Bible? You may remember how he had the courage to fight a giant or how he hid from King Saul who wanted him dead and then refused to kill Saul when he had the chance. You may think about his sin with Bathsheba and how he committed adultery and murder. Still, David was known as a man after God’s own heart. Do the children you teach have a heart for God? How does King David’s heart for God help us have a heart of worship?

How to Lead a Child to Christ: Counseling for Salvation
Leading a child to Jesus can be both exciting — and frightening. What if you say the wrong thing? What if she asks a question that you don’t know the answer to? How do you know if the child is sincere?
What To Do When Sunday School Lesson Ends Early
Your Sunday school class was going great! Jesus had fed the 5,000 and Jaxon was tracking right along with the story.
How to Keep Kids’ Attention in Sunday School Class
I’m on the children’s church teaching team at my church. I teach the younger group, which range from 3-6 years old. They are hilarious, sweet, and sometimes just plain squirrely! If something hits them funny it can be so easy for them to get distracted and before I know it they aren’t paying attention anymore!
Sunday School Lesson Introductions: 5 Ways to Engage Kids from the Start
“1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10! Ready or not, here I come!” Without fail, whenever I just start playing “hide and seek” in class without giving any warning, I have got the kids’ attention! What am I going to do next? Could it be fun?
Teaching Preschoolers Bible Lessons: Multisensory Learning That Makes SENSE
“Why are you eating toilet paper?!” It seemed like a reasonable question, but my toddler didn’t bother to answer as she crammed another piece of (clean) toilet paper into her mouth.
Classroom Management for Kids: Behavior Games That Make Sunday School Obedience Fun
“Did you bring your dinosaurs?” asked Riley as she rushed into class and scanned the room for Fluffy and Maximus. These T-rex twins are a favorite with many kids in my class, but others prefer my bright yellow Minions, Stuart and Kevin, or one of the many other behavior incentives that show up in my class regularly.
How to Teach Kids Songs in Sunday School: The SING Method for Engaging Children in Worship
As we started to sing, Karl rolled his eyes; slid further down in his chair; and crossed his arms as if to say, “I dare you to try to get me to sing.” It didn’t take long for the other 4th and 5th grade boys to follow his example and refuse to participate during songs.
Abiding in Christ
Okay, I admit it—I’ve got some favorite students in my Sunday school class. You know who I’m talking about—the student who sits up in her chair, helps her classmates, and always wears a cheerful smile. But sometimes the fruit we see in these children is coming from a wrong motive or heart attitude. Maybe they obey out of obligation or the desire to be better than their peers.
Children cannot grow God-glorifying fruit in their own strength, so how can we help them so that it will grow supernaturally in their lives?
Victory Over Sin
Victory! It’s what we play for, strive for, and fight for. Everyone wants to be a winner. It’s natural for children to push and grab to get what they want or throw a tantrum. But it’s good they don’t always gain victory in what they want because it would actually be bad for them.
