Paul's Nephew Saves Him

This week begins the last part of our study of Paul in the book of Acts! Paul stays faithful and goes to Jerusalem, even though he knows that he will be put in prison again. Today's worksheet is about giving our time to God and can be used for several different lessons.

The Beatitudes: Preschool Printables

All the projects for the Beatitudes in this post are intended for preschool or kindergarten. I have simplified (a lot) the Blessed are... for each one, to be easier to discuss this with them and to be easier to understand.

Cathy's Corner: Week 3

This week continues the scriptures and thoughts of my Sister-in-Law Cathy Whitacre.

Paul is Captured in Jerusalem

This week we are studying about Paul being faithful to God and doing no matter what it takes to do the Lord's will. There is a Venn Diagram for the students included.

The Beatitudes: Bee-Attitudes Bulletin Board & More!

All the printables were created with a bee and beehive theme for this post. Next week will be the last post in this Beatitudes series and will be all preschool.

Cathy's Corner: Week 2

This week continues the scriptures and thoughts of my Sister-in-Law Cathy Whitacre.

Paul and Agabus

The people finally said, "Let the Lord's will be done". This is a shorter lesson, so I like to discuss other Bible people that did the Lord's will instead of doing what they wanted. There is a concept chart for the students to write about the Bible people that are being discussed.

The Beatitudes: More Printables!

This week's post for the Beatitudes I am posting this month has assorted printables. I have some that were created with the flower theme, and others with the bee & beehive theme that will be used for all of next week's post. Honestly, I was getting too much for one post, so added some here!

Cathy's Corner: Week 1

Please take a moment of your time to join us as I share daily scripture, thoughts and more from Cathy Whitacre. This is week 1.

 

Demetrius the Silversmith

 Paul is constantly teaching about staying faithful to God and don't worship idols. There are several applications for this lesson, and we talked about making God first in our life, obeying God and their parents. They loved their worksheet today!

The Beatitudes: Interactive Bulletin Board & More!

 

This week's addition to the Beatitudes Series is an Interactive Bulletin Board, Task Cards and worksheets. Next week will continue the same theme with all new printables!

Using Task Cards in a Bible Class

I asked Danielle Ringold to write a post about using Task Cards in Bible class. I have been asked how to use them and there are several sets available on this blog. My daughter has used them in public education, so she has listed some ideas for us. I have added some of our Task Cards through the post for you.

Paul With Aquila & Priscilla

Aquila and Priscilla is a great lesson to talk about Paul having a skill and more of the people that he worked with... physically to make money and Spiritually to spread the Word of God. Paul mentions them several times and always has good things to say about them. The project is a map with the locations that Aquila and Priscilla are known to be. We also know where Paul was at the same time, so there his locations are also discussed and marked.

The Beatitudes

I am going to have a post once a week this month for The Beatitudes. This week will begin the series with the lesson, visuals and more! I created two sets of visuals that you can use for younger or older students. These can also be used as a bulletin board. Come back next week for a really nice Interactive Bulletin Board with the printables to make yours (and more).

Jesus Spell-It-Out Wall Letters

Paul & Silas in Prison

This week we studied Paul and Silas. This is a really fun lesson! We also learn about Paul being a Roman citizen and how important that was in Paul's time.

God Makes Spring

This is a Bible preschool at home post, but the color pictures can be used in a preschool class to ask/remind students that God Makes Everything. There is also a Ladybug and Bee Make-Your-Own Template included.

Lydia

This week we discussed Lydia. I used bolts of different purple cloth for the visual, which the kids really liked. They took home purple cloth and shells. They also added purple cloth and shells to their IFA bags with the printable for today.

Timothy

This week's study in Acts is about Timothy. I created the printables for Timothy using the letters Paul wrote to Timothy. There is also a Tri-Fold Foldable option.

Paul Preaches About God at Mars Hill

There are so many different Bible facts that can be taught with this lesson. For this post, I decided on Names of God since Paul taught about God the Creator.

Apostle Paul Bulletin Boards

There are two bulletin boards for the Apostle Paul in this post. They both have the all the graphics included to print your own! Also, one of the bulletin boards has matching worksheets included.

Teen Tuesday: Grief

How do you deal with the unexpected suicide of a teenager in the community of the students in your class? Do you ignore it or do you teach a lesson that will help them deal with it? Teen Tuesday posts are written by Danielle Ringold. The basic lesson plan with scripture and questions are in the download for this post.

Paul Heals Man in Lystra

This lesson is Paul and Barnabas in Lystra. They healed a man and the people started to worship them instead of God! This really upset them, and Paul told them that they are just normal men teaching others about God that created everything!

Paul Preaches in Antioch

I love this lesson and being able to discuss some of the Old Testament people! There are two different printables for this lesson. One is a really fun Mini-Notebook set and the other is a one page Cross Foldable.

Teen Tuesday: Christian Love

Another interesting lesson for Teen Tuesday! This week is about love. Christian love. Love for others. I just had to listen to this song on YouTube while I work on this post! Anyway, The Teen Tuesday lessons are written by Danielle Ringold and she teaches the High School young ladies on Wednesday night.

Paul & Elymas

Today our lesson is about Saul and Elymas. We also learn about Saul, and he starts being known by Paul. This is an easy concept for the students. I tell them my name is Debbie or Deb. And, if there are others, I use their names. There is a Venn Diagram printable to use with today's lesson.

Lion Project for Daniel

This is a short post with an idea for a lion face for Daniel in the Lion's Den. I did this with preschoolers and they loved it! This can be used for Bible class or homeschool.

Teen Tuesday: Being a Good Friend

This week's Teen Tuesday post is about Being a Good Friend. The conversations were interesting, again! This week's lesson is a freebie and has a scripture poster that can be used with or without the lesson. These posts are written by Danielle Ringold.

Paul Escapes Damascus in a Basket

Today's' lesson has a printable with a basket, of course! It can be used any lesson that you want to discuss being a worker for Jesus

New Bulletin Board Ideas

This post contains a couple of new general bulletin board ideas. They were created by several different people and they have allowed me to share them with you. I have posted them in basically the order they were added to the church building walls. Thanks to everyone that permittedd me to use them!

Teen Tuesday: Gossip: The Unspoken Sin

Teen Tuesday is written by Danielle Ringold. She is currently teaching the high school young women on Wednesday nights. It is very interesting to listen to these discussions! Gossip is an issue that affects any age group, man or women. For this post, I created a set of Concept Charts that can be used for just about any Bible discussion.

Saul Blinded by the Light

This week's lesson begins Paul! I created a set of printables that I used on a project board, but they can be used as a mini bulletin board, etc. There is also a Heart Bubble Concept worksheet that works great for a discussion starter.

Winter Bulletin Boards By Nicole

This post is bulletin boards that my niece Nicole Whitacre has allowed me to share with you. Nicole has written a few words to tell you what she used to make the bulletin boards. Thanks so much Nicole for letting me share them!

Teen Tuesday: Grace Based Living

This week's Teen Tuesday is about Grace based Living. This was such an interesting lesson for the students, that it was carried over to another week, and could have been even longer! After sitting in this class, I feel that this lesson would also be good for a Teen Day, etc. There is so much for them to discuss and think about! The post is written by Danielle Ringold!

Cornelius & Peter's Vision

Our lesson today takes a look at Peter's Vision. We will talk about the Old Testament laws concerning clean and unclean animals. We will also learn about Peter visiting Cornelius. There are a couple of puzzles for today's printables.

Paul Pocket Chart & Word Wall

This Word Wall for Paul is part of an interactive bulletin board that I use for the Apostle Paul during our study of Acts.

Teen Tuesday: Anger

This week's Teen Tuesday was very interesting! What angers Teens? What angers adults? How do teens handle it? What does the Bible say about anger? These are some of the areas of anger that we discussed. And, as usual, there was so much to say, we didn't get to do everything that was planned! Thanks to Danielle Ringold for writing this!

The Creation For Kids: Day 7

 Welcome to the last day, Day 7, of this series! God created everything and saw that it was good in six days, then He rested on Day 7.

The Creation For Kids: Day 6

Several websites collaborated together to share ideas for The Creation found in Genesis. So glad you are here for Day 6 of this week long series! This one was the most fun day for me, since I love the animals that God created on Day 6. We also get to learn about Adam and Eve being created on Day 6.

Peter is Freed from Prison

This week we discuss Peter being set free from prison. God sent an angel, and they walked right past the guards! There is a game to play and review for the lesson. The game can be used just as a game board, or it can be used as a file folder game. It is short but should really help make the review fun for the students!

This week's Teen Tuesday is about God's Grace. What is it? What does grace cover? This is a great discussion lesson! The Teen Tuesday lessons are written by Danielle Ringold and they are being taught in the Wednesday evening Teen young ladies class.

Philip & the Ethiopian Eunuch

This week we are studying the Ethiopian Eunuch. I decided to make Bible Facts Flash cards to use as review since the Eunuch was studying the Bible to learn what God wanted, and we are also told to study the Bible. There is also an updated scroll!

There is a new Scripture posters & worksheet pack!

Teen Tuesday: Spiritual Accountability

At the start of every New Year many people create resolutions about how they will make themselves better in the New Year. These resolutions usually have to do with health, fitness, relationships, or personal needs. However, many people over look the most important type of resolution that could make- spiritual resolutions. How can a person improve themselves spiritually for the coming year? How can they draw themselves closer to God? This topic is written by Danielle Ringold.

Stephen

Our study is about Stephen, and we will review some of the Old Testament people that he talked about and discuss Jesus. For our IFA: Investigating Facts in Acts addition, there is a printable evidence card with directions to make an evidence bag. This can be used for any lesson! There is also a Fill-in-the-Blank STEPHEN Flap Book. The kids love these!
