Do You Know What's in the Bi-able?

Wednesday nights, with the 4th-6th graders, are an absolute blast!


We've been watching and learning from a great video series called "What's in the Bible" and the kids and grown-ups alike can't wait to get to class to see the next installment. This is a brand new dvd series from Veggie Tales creator, Phil Vischer--so you know it's awesome.


"What's in the Bible" is designed to walk kids through the entire Bible, giving them a ton of background information as well as emphasizing some of the most important points in God's Word. Of course, the videos are hilarious and entertaining. The music is contagious--we all go home singing the songs. Most importantly, the kids are learning deep truths.
The kids in this class are learning things that a lot of adult Christians may not know; stuff like--
--What's the 'canon'?
--What are the 3 problems of sin that God wants to deliver us from?
--Who lived when: Abraham, Joseph, Noah, Jacob, Adam, Isaac, Moses. AND, our kids can put these guys in the right order!! (How many grown-ups could do that?)
--How is a "pastry-ark" different than a "patriarch"?


The good news is: the kids have loved this series and have learned so much!
The bad news is: we've just about finished the most recent dvd and will have to wait until June until the next one is released...bummer. In the meantime, we'll be playing outside and learning what good sportsmanship & the Fruit of the Spirit have in common.


So, big applause for Adam, Ben, Caleb, Emma, Jacob & Renilo for all their hard work so far on the "What's in the Bible" series!


And, by the way, did you know we also have awesome classes for our preschoolers and 1st-3rd graders? Kids at CCF will tell you that Wednesday nights are good fun and good for them, too!
