Parent and Family Resources
We maintain an updated list of resources to help in the spiritual development and faith formation of your children and family.
Online Lessons
If you’re not able to join our in-person Awesome Adventure classes, or if you’d like to review the material again as a family, we invite you to use this curriculum to study the Bible together at home. We’ve included activity pages for kids, videos to watch as a family, and discussion questions and prayer guides to help you walk through Scripture together. We pray this is a time of discipleship and spiritual growth for your entire family.
