Remember that children are an important part of God's kingdom. It is our goal that our curriculum, along with your guidance, will teach the children to cherish and to choose God and his kingdom.

The Cincinnati Church provides excellent child care and classroom instruction for children from infants to teenagers... our Kingdom Kids!

Since 1998 we have been using an exciting new curriculum from Discipleship Publications International that greatly enhances our ability to provide a solid biblical program of instruction under the leadership of Andy and Andrea Erickson.

They are supported by nearly 20 coordinators that help assure the teachers and assistants have everything they need to make each weekly lesson spiritually valuable, informative, and fun.

WHO ARE THE KINGDOM KIDS?

Children are as much a part of the body as are adult disciples! They need our hearts, our attention, our convictions, our love, our care and our concern. We must be in the battle for their souls! (Heroes, DPI)

Where do we fight this battle? In the classroom, on the playground, at church and on our knees! God has moved powerfully to create a curriculum that will arm us to be victorious in this battle. Children's ministry leaders from many churches have spent countless hours to make sure that these lessons help our children develop a fundamental, vivid and practical knowledge of the Scriptures and a personal faith in God. A Biblical advisory committee has reviewed each lesson to ensure that the material is Biblically sound. Many others have added their educational experience and expertise to make these lessons fun and life-changing-not only for the children, but also for you!

This has truly been a kingdom project led by God and accomplished through the amazing effort of hundreds of volunteers. Nothing like this has ever been done before and could only be accomplished in God's kingdom.

The Kingdom Kids two-year curriculum includes both preschool and school-age lessons. Seeds of Faith takes the children from preschool through second grade. It introduces them to six exciting and dynamic learning centers:

Bible Story, Life Application, Craft, Game, Scripture Memory and Bible Skills. In all lessons, the preclass activity provides a preview of the current lesson and a review of preceding lessons. This curriculum plan will take the children through both the Old and New Testaments with units such as: The Adventures of Moses, Creation, Young Heroes for God, and Obedience. Together with a Parent Letter for each unit, these lessons promise to help children relate Biblical concepts to their everyday experiences. Seeds of Faith is truly the beginning of our children's spiritual growth.

Where Seeds of Faith ends, Generation Next picks up. This curriculum begins with the third grade and continues through the preteen years, training each student to make godly choices. Using the Bible, students will explore God's awesome creation, travel through the Red Sea, dig up evidences, cross over to the Promised Land and even peer into the empty tomb. These lessons allow the students to apply important Bible principles to their everyday lives. Generation Next takes the seeds planted and waters them such that each student has the foundation to make his or her decision to be a disciple for life.
