NEW! COKESBURY KIDS BIG FAITH

Grow faith in kids that’s as big as their imaginations!

Grow faith in kids that’s as big as their imaginations!

Ready to think outside the box when it comes to children’s faith formation? Cokesbury Kids Big Faith is an exciting new quarterly curriculum from the creators of Celebrate Wonder, Deep Blue, Food Truck Party VBS, and more. Cokesbury Kids Big Faith helps children discover, develop, and practice their faith in God in a trusted community through timeless Bible stories, hands-on activities, and childfriendly themes. Big Faith offers faith-formation experiences that are tangible, applicable, and meaningful to children’s everyday lives.

BIG FAITH IDEA

Each year of Big Faith is designed around four Big Faith Ideas: Faith in God (each fall), Faith in Community (each winter), Faith in Jesus (each spring), and Faith in Action (each summer). Children will explore the Big Faith Idea each quarter through each month’s faith focus and theme.

MONTHLY THEMES AND FAITH FOCUS

Each quarter of Big Faith will be divided into monthly units with a fun, child-friendly theme. Within each theme, children will connect to the Bible stories in a creative way, as well as learn that month’s faith focus and a Bible memory verse.

FAITH RESPONSE

Within each session, children will be invited to respond to what they have learned to make faith personal to them. Cokesbury.

Cokesbury Kids Big Faith is a 13-week quarterly curriculum available in two age levels—ages 3-6 and ages 7-12. Big Faith gives you everything you need to lead a curriculum that’s fun and faith-building for kids.

Cokesbury Kids Big Faith is designed to be extremely volunteer-friendly. There’s minimal setup required, and each lesson comes with clear, concise instructions. With only a little prep, leaders can feel confident walking into class and exciting kids’ imaginations.

CLASS FORMAT

Continue the faith formation tradition that you know, love, and trust from Cokesbury Kids. Each session of Big Faith invites children to explore their faith in the context of their everyday lives. Within each session, children will be introduced to a faith concept; explore a Bible story together through storytelling and video; participate in age-appropriate, hands-on activities; and will reflect on and share what they have learned with one another.

SESSION INFO

Each session begins with a time for children to enter the space and begin to explore and connect with the Bible story. The children will then interact with the Bible story in several ways. Following the sharing of the Bible story, there is an opportunity for the children to have discussion, ask questions, and reflect. The age-appropriate activities in each session help children deepen their understanding of the Bible story through exploration and play, using various learning styles. Each session closes with the opportunity to share faith together. Each week the children will be invited to explore the Big Faith Idea for the quarter and share what they have learned about their faith within the context of their trusted community.

ADJUSTABLE TO FIT YOUR NEEDS

The lesson plans in Big Faith are flexible, so leaders can choose activities that best fit the needs of their class. This flexibility also means the curriculum works well with churches of any size. The ability to easily customize the lesson plan is one of the features Cokesbury Kids curriculum leaders appreciate most. Cokesbury.

MISSION POSSIBLE KIDS

Are you ready to inspire your kids to become their best selves, to do great things, to show them how to put their faith in action? Then get ready for Mission Possible Kids! It's exciting. IT'S REAL!

Mission Possible Kids empowers kids to become agents of change—in their own lives and the lives of others. Agents accomplish ”hands-on” TOP SECRET missions such as: stocking food banks, making gifts for kids in hospitals and shelters, helping nursing home residents, helping at animal shelters, and much more. MPK has helped over 5 million people worldwide!

Mission Possible Kids helps grow kids spiritually by doing God’s work; helps get parents more involved (everyone wants to be a secret agent!); attracts new families to your church as your kids get excited to bring friends; brings a heart touch and resources to people in your community who desperately need it, all coming from the children of your church. Helps kids inspire the rest of your church to get active in missions!

In the “doing” of God's work—the way kids learn best—your Agents (kids) develop:

• Compassion

• Self-confidence and self-esteem

• Respect for self and others

• Strong work ethic

• Strong problem-solving skills

• Expanded worldview

• Leadership skills

• Positive outlook

• Resilience

• Bond to community and beyond

Mission Possible Kids TOP SECRET Missions – Get all the mission plans you need, all designed to show elementary-aged kids how they can become “agents of change.” Each Mission Possible Kids Mission includes:

• Director’s Plan—The project overview, Bible verse, supply list, and all the behind-the-scenes preparation steps to get everything ready to go. The last step shows you how to estimate the number of lives touched to help your kids understand their impact.

• Agent Handler’s Plan—The week-by-week breakdown that shows leaders how to teach the lesson and work the mission. If you’re planning to meet less often, simply drop out some of the extra activities.

• Templates—Easy-to-print worksheets, gift tags, cards, and game sheets.

• Photos—Sample photos to show the kids the people (or animals) your project may help. Just drop them in PowerPoint and you’re good to go.

Planning Your Mission Calendar – Kick off the first hour-long meeting of each year with “Agent Training” and end the year with a party to celebrate all that agents have done in God’s service. Many groups opt for a food bank collection every Thanksgiving as well. Then, fill in other months with any of the other great MPK missions.

Mission Possible Kids Supplies – Gather project supplies on your own. All projects require basic school supplies that you likely already have in children’s ministry—crayons, markers, pencils, glue or glue stick, and scissors. You will need paper and cardstock to make copies as directed. The other supplies needed vary by project. These are usually simple, inexpensive craft or office supply items, such as chenille stems, tape, sharp scissors for adult use, etc.

To reduce your supply budget for some missions, we recommend that you set out a collection box to gather inexpensive items you might need in larger amounts or donations from sponsors so that your kids can make a bigger impact than your budget alone might allow.

We’re on a mission!

• A COKESBURY EXCLUSIVE!

• An innovative way for kids to make a huge impact in their community and their world

• 4-week missions or choose one per month

• Enough missions for a school year but can be planned to fit the church’s schedule

• For grades K–6

• For small groups (1–4 people) and larger groups (5 or more people)

Mission Tracker – A big part of why Mission Possible Kids works is over time kids begin to understand that working together they can make a HUGE impact in lives touched. The Mission Tracker helps you do that. The Mission Tracker can take any form you like, as long as it enables agents to see their progress in a visual way. Got a creative bent? Create a human-sized magnifying glass (or show one in PowerPoint) where the stem fills in more and more each month reflecting the lives touched. Update the changing total in the circle of the magnifying glass each month. Unveil last month’s progress at the first meeting of each new month.

Inside Your Launch Kit – Here you’ll find everything else you need to run an action-packed Mission Possible Kids program:

• Logos and forms—The MPK logo (.jpg and .eps).

• Promotion Star Chart to track agent promotions— A step-by-step guide to using the Promotion Star Chart, Promotion Certificates, and rank info.

• Spy Games—Team-building activities to use all year long.

• MPK Coloring Pages—Your agents can choose their favorite Spy5 alter-ego.

All Systems Go! – Your kids are going to have a blast in MPK. But more importantly, you are instilling in them selflessness, compassion, and an understanding of what it truly means to be called to serve. You are forever changing their lives so that they can change others.

ROTATION STATIONS

• Fun lessons grab kids’ attention and keep them engaged with different learning styles

• Each full unit has 7 stations, so one unit can last up to 7 weeks

• Individual stations can be used to supplement Sunday school or VBS

• Bible stories are explored from multiple angles

• Made for Sunday school, but also great for Wednesday nights and summer

• Easy for volunteers—prep a lesson then share it multiple times with different age groups

• For children grades K–5

Rotation teaching is popular, and for good reason! As children visit a different learning station each week, they will explore each unit’s story—through art, cooking, games, missions, science, spiritual practices, and/or storytelling. As a result, each Bible story and its meaning will stay with them for life! Busy volunteers will love using their specialized skills without a huge time investment—they plan once, then teach the same lesson for several weeks to different age groups.

Rotation Stations is flexible—purchase and download a full unit (all seven stations/weeks) for deeper, more engaged learning. Or, for a shorter rotation, choose one or more of the seven individual station downloads available for each unit. Makes a great midweek resource!

All stations are divided into three age categories: All Children, Younger Elementary, and Older Elementary. Cokesbury.

FOLLOW ME CURRICULUM

Follow Me: Biblical Practices for Faithful Living is a curriculum that is based on practices Jesus did and taught us to do as faithful followers. Written for people of all ages who wish to live out their faith, this new curriculum examines where these practices are found in the Bible and how they have been used in Christian faith then and now. Westminster John Knox Press.

The Children’s Leader Guide, the Multi-Age Leader Guide and the Youth Leader Guide contain helpful information for leaders about the practice, the sessions, and supplies; background information about the practice; at-a-glance activity symbols; reproducible/emailable resources; and more. The Adult Leader Guide contains a summary of the practice and the four (or six) sessions, background information, activity and discussion options, and leader preparation. The Adult Reflection Guide is a workbook or journal for adults that allows for self-guided study of the practice. The Congregational Guide provides materials for the pastor, educator, and church leaders to connect the practice with congregational worship and life.

Lament - Jewish and Christian faith connect lament and hope. Through studying this practice, participants will learn how the laments in the Old Testament express raw emotion, but also confidence that God is listening and will eventually set things right. This 4-session unit focuses on four practices in the ritual of lament.

Celebrate Communion - Throughout this unit, participants will learn that Communion is a physical act, a spiritual gift, and a call for a pattern for living, in which we receive the gifts of God, give thanks, break them open, and share them with one another and the world.

Cross Borders - Jesus encountered many borders in his ministry. This practice shows how we, as followers of Jesus, can cross border by taking actions to reach out to others who are different from us in order to love them and build bridges of understanding and justice.

Do Not Fear - It’s been said that the phrase “do not fear” appears 365 times in Scripture. In this unit, participants will learn that the command to “do not fear” does not mean that there is nothing to be afraid of or that we can eradicate fear—it means that God will walk with us through whatever fears we have.

Worship God - Worship is the primary way to follow Jesus and other practices flow from this communal activity. In Worship God, we learn that worshiping God involves disciples (and seekers!) gathered then sent out and then gathered again, creating an ebb and flow of the communal to individual and societal and back again to communal.

Comfort Those Who Mourn - We all mourn at times and need others to console us and accompany us as we recover. This 4-session unit teaches that as we nurture our own ability to comfort others, it is equally important to be in touch with how we grieve ourselves. Through the practice of comforting one another, community bonds are strengthened.

Make Disciples - In this 6-session unit, participants learn that making disciples, at its simplest, is an invitation to others to live as followers of Christ. It is not inviting others to have an identical faith to one’s own; it’s an invitation to live into a faith that meets a person’s spiritual needs and contributes to the goodness of the community.

Care for Creation - In Creation Care, participants will see that creation care is not just a political issue, it is a faith issue. Caring for creation offers us a way of following Jesus—the one who taught us that God’s love is more powerful even than death—and we will receive a word of hope as we live out our calling as disciples.

Walk Humbly - Humility is hard to grasp. Through studying these sessions, participants will learn that humility is found in the knowledge that life is not a prize to be seized, but a gift to be received with gratitude. All our achievements, our powers and possessions, ultimately come from God and return to God—everything is grace.

Living in Faith Together

LNEW LIFT (LIVING IN FAITH TOGETHER)

What will your church offer for spiritual formation this year? This could be the time to try an intergenerational approach! LIFT brings generations together around a table for four activities: share food (Breaking Bread Together), enjoy fellowship (Playing Together), worship (Praying Together), and study the Bible (Studying God’s Word Together). When generations mutually invest in one another, Christ-centered relationships grow and intergenerational ministry is born. You can invite two or more generations to learn in small groups around tables where 1–2 key leaders prepare and guide sessions. There is no set order for using LIFT resources. Churches choose themes based on the desired topic and/or Scripture. Sessions within themes are not cumulative, so churches choose the sessions they desire within each theme.

Sessions include step-by-step instructions for preparing and leading each of the four activities. Sessions are led by one or two facilitators and take 45–60 minutes depending on the activities chosen.

LIFT can be used in Sunday school, special gatherings, offsite events, midweek, summer, Advent, Lent, dinner time, at home, and VBS. GenOn Ministries.

WONDERFULLY MADE: Loved by God

Mark Huffman, Tanya Eustace Campen, and Leigh Meekins

The preteen years are tough. Changes are happening to preteens’ bodies, minds, and emotions which makes it hard to know exactly what’s going on and what hard topics to try and discuss with their parents. Wonderfully Made provides kids ages 10–12 the opportunity to not only ask questions about growing up, but to get faith-based answers as well. The curriculum covers physical development and spiritual connection while helping preteens establish a foundation for their life in Christ. Abingdon Press.

FATHOM: A Deep Dive into the Story of God

Fathom is a Bible study for teens with lessons that are a blend of narrative and traditional theological approaches to understanding the Bible story. Each lesson will focus on one passage that will launch into the larger context of God’s story, and how that story is meant to be theirs. Fathom is suitable for groups with middle schoolers, high schoolers, and any combination of the two. But unlike many other resources, it acknowledges the differences between older and younger youth and the way they learn. It provides activities specific to each age group, as well as activities for mixed groups in which older youth have leadership opportunities. Fathom gives leaders the option to let youth take ownership of their learning through teaching and leading alongside adults. Fathom creates space and tension for teens to wrestle with how to interpret and experience the Bible. Abingdon Press.

AFFIRM: God's Call / The World's Needs / Your Purpose

Affirm is a 6-week discipleship refresh from confirmation with an emphasis on following Jesus and spiritual practices. Providing leaders with the tools to enlist the support of their church and parents to help students grow stronger and go deeper with their relationship with Christ.

Continue the confirmation journey. A lot happens in the months and years after students make their first faith commitment. While teenagers have a basic understanding of what it means to be Christian, they still need help developing, deepening, and strengthening their faith.

Affirm is a devotional resource written with that challenge in mind. This discipleship resource provides a flipped classroom experience, enabling teens to articulate what they believe and why, helping them see how faith can be practiced in their everyday lives.

Through Affirm, teens will learn about and put into practice the following truths: They are called to be both disciples and disciple makers; to experience deeper faith alongside their church family. They should talk about what they believe and why and practice faith in their everyday lives.

Youth leaders will find everything they need to guide their teens through a transition in their faith journey, including tools to help enlist the support of parents and the entire church family. In addition to the Student Guide, Affirm includes a Leader Guide, Mentor Guide, Parent Guide, and a DVD for use as a group series, a small group study, or for a weekend retreat. Abingdon Press.

Unlike the learning participants may have experienced in other groups, this in-depth study of the whole Bible emphasizes the biblical concept of covenant as a unifying pattern through all the books in the Old and New Testaments. It underscores the unique relationship that God chooses to have with us as God’s people, a relationship grounded in the faithfulness of God’s love and on our ongoing commitment to stay in love with God while we share signs of that love with others.

Each episode connects to an aspect of the covenant relationship, which is summarized in the heading of each participant guide.

Inviting United Methodist people to embrace our distinctive United Methodist identity and enlarge our vision for ministry

Authentic, relevant, and educational resources for study, prayer, and faithful living.

We are sharing a dynamic moment in the life of The United Methodist Church—a time of remembering, reaffirming, and renewing. The United Methodist Publishing House (Abingdon Press and Cokesbury) is offering a new collection of relevant resources to inform and encourage clergy and laity as we draw from the deep well of our tradition and step forward with confidence and hope. We recommend these new resources for your edification and use as leaders, teachers, and spiritual guides with fresh ways to explore and teach United Methodist identity and practice.
