Supporting Parents to Lead Their Children to Discover the Greatest Treasure - Jesus Christ
Parents have the most influence in their children's lives. Our goal is to support them in their spiritual responsibility to shepherd & train their children in the word of God. We do this two ways: first, by teaching the word of God in the classroom, and second, to provide materials to help parents shepherd their children's hearts to be awakened to the joy of knowing Christ for themselves. |
"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure, hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field."
Matthew 13:44 ESV |

The New City Catechism is designed to help children not only learn sound doctrine but also to learn how to respond to it and live it out in their lives. Because parents have the main opportunity and responsibility to shepherd their children's hearts, our purpose is to provide tools for parents to engage their children in sound doctrine that God uses to transform their hearts. We recommend that parents direct and help their children memorize the catechism questions and answers and the memory verses.
The Gospel Project is a three year quest to discover the ultimate treasure; the Lord Jesus Christ; the divine thread that unifies all of the Bible. The downloadable PDF files immediately below will give you a three year overview of the lessons your children will be learning.

Old Testament Lessons for Children: In this class young children will learn the glorious deeds of the Lord, and His might, and the wonders that He has done (Psalm 78:4). Beginning in Genesis and highlighting important stories in the Old Testament, children will begin to see the ultimate value and worth of the God who created us for His glory.
The ABCs of God is designed to comprehensively teach the attributes and character of God to children. In order to biblically believe in and love God, a person needs to know who God is, what He has done through Jesus Christ, and how to respond to the revelation of Him found in Scripture. This is the purpose of this class
To Be Like Jesus helps answers these questions: What is salvation? How does someone become a Christian? What does it mean to become lie Jesus? Children will be taught elements of the Gospel message, its purpose, and its promise. A major portion of this study focuses on the doctrine of sanctification - the process by which a Christian becomes more and more conformed to the likeness of Jesus.
My Purpose Will Stand is a study for 5th grade children on the providence of God. The goal is to give children a solid theological foundation so that when the difficult storms of life hit (which they surely will), they will be prepared to "weather the storm" by trusting in our sovereign, loving, and purposeful God.
