Growing in Christ

All Ages - Classroom Based

Christ-centered curriculum for every age Touching hearts. Changing lives. Learning together.

Concordia’s Sunday School is all about Jesus. Each week, kids connect with the Bible and each other. They learn of God’s love and forgiveness through Jesus, and grow in faith together.

Each week kids, youth, and adults delve into the Bible through age-appropriate Bible readings and activities. Together, they explore the Bible, draw life connections, and learn more about the traditions of the church.

How It Works Flexible lesson layouts and easyto-use materials make Growing in Christ perfect for classrooms of all sizes and students of all ages.

1 Opening (10 minutes)

Each lesson is divided into four parts that reinforce the Bible story using different teaching techniques.

This relationship-building time helps leaders and kids prepare their hearts for Sunday School and introduces the week’s Scripture verse and Bible story.

Each week, all ages explore the same Bible story. With take-home materials kids and adults can grow in faith as individuals and together as a family.

Kids get to the heart of the Bible story through discussion, skits, music and singing, Bible readings, articles, and more.

3 We Live (15 minutes) 4 Closing (5 minutes)

Kids learn and internalize the Bible story through crafts, games, and other activities.

Reviews the Gospel points and Bible verse, then closes with a prayer.

Every story in the Bible points to Jesus; so should your Sunday School.

Most people make a decision to follow Jesus during their elementary years. That’s why we believe one of the most important things we can do is help elementary kids see Jesus in every story of the Bible and learn to trust him in every area of their lives. Each week, whether you are sharing a Bible story from the Old or New Testament, Elementary Sunday School will show you how all of the Bible leads us to Jesus. Because nothing is more important than a child’s relationship with Jesus.

1-800-521-0751

PRESCHOOL - ELEMENTARY When Josh came to Sunday school, he often seemed lost. Not that kind of “lost”— just a kid who didn’t connect. He heard the Bible stories but didn’t relate to them. And he was always the first to line up at the door when class was over.

Then you tried something new. A fresh, large-group/ small-group approach called Living Inside Out.

WOW kids with exciting quarterly modules like these!

Now josh is excited to sing and learn during the largegroup celebration. He opens up and shares during the small-group interaction. Suddenly he sees that Jesus means something special to his life.

Changing kids’ lives isn’t just something you talk about anymore.

...with large-group WOW! Small-group POW! Everything you love about Sunday school—the excitement, the joy, the thrill of experiencing Jesus—is everything you’ll love about Living Inside Out, too. Living Inside Out combines the fun energy of large-group experiences along with the intimate impact of small groups. You get interactive worship, games, skits, and more that let kids spend their time doing the Bible lesson, not just listening to it.

It’s perfect for any church size. All you need is one “up-front” personality plus a handful of adults who like to hang out with kids. Churches say it’s the most volunteer-friendly program they’ve ever used.

Just like you, Living Inside Out does big things…without missing any of the small details that make your ministry special.

Each quarter of Living Inside Out includes 3 themed modules that serve all age levels.
