Faith Steps for Siblings in Conflict
A Sunday school teacher received this prayer request: “I share a room with my sister, Little Miss Innocent, who always gets me in trouble. Pray I don’t kill her!” Sibling rivalry is as old as Cain and Abel and abounds in every culture. How can we as teachers help children walk by faith at home?
Talking to Children about Bullying
When Janice walked into Bible class everyone stepped aside. If Janice was in a good mood and got her way class went well. If not she would push kids out of their chairs, tease them about their looks or call someone stupid. When the teacher asked Janice to step into the hall, she rolled her eyes and said no. Janice’s bullying hurt others but it also kept her from learning about the love of Jesus.
Discipline that Molds Lives
Based on my experience as a public school teacher I’d like to offer you four major tools to build good discipline in your club or classroom.
Calling All Children to Pray: North Korean Children Need to Meet Jesus
Child Evangelism Fellowship® (CEF®) is calling on Christians worldwide, especially children, to pray that God will throw open the doors of North Korea to Good News Clubs (GNCs).

How to Teach Boys
Our teaching is often stacked against boys. It appeals to girls who enjoy reading, writing and talking. But boys usually learn better when their bodies are in motion. So be creative—include moving as part of your teaching process.
The One, Two, Three of Story Teaching
Telling or reading a Bible story is the major teaching method used with young children. But few have studied the “science” of this approach to relating God’s truths. Let’s begin with three important stages of presenting a story that will make a difference in kids’ lives.
Teaching Girls
Surprise! Differences between girls and boys start in the brain. Girls have a stronger pathway between the two hemispheres of the brain and their frontal lobe is more developed. Therefore they are usually better than boys at language, reading and fine motor skills like using a pencil.
Equipping Kids to Face Disappointments
Many times children find themselves dealing with difficult and sometimes disappointing situations. At a Good News Club recently a child shared about a difficult situation at home and was seeking guidance on what to do.
Effective Classroom Management
As we started our praise time, Trevor and Jason began wrestling! They were having fun but their misbehavior disrupted the rest of the class and defied authority. Should I correct them in front of the entire group? Should I lecture everyone about paying attention? Should I ignore the misbehavior, hoping it will stop?
