About this listen
Teachers, youth leaders, pastors, and VBS directors:
Kids love to learn through playing parts in fun plays, and they will have a blast with these 25 five-minute plays. Assign parts and let the kids listen to the play, encouraging them to be expressive. Each play teaches a powerful principle of scripture. Questions are provided at the end of each play for discussion.
To Sunday school teachers:
These plays make great introductions for Sunday school lessons. They can be used to begin a class, or as a fill-in if there is extra time. They can also provide the main theme for that day’s lesson. Each play is based on a scripture passage that teaches God’s word in a memorable way.
To pastors, youth leaders, and VBS directors:
The plays can also serve as lessons for children’s time in church, VBS, or children’s church. The plays would also make great introductions to sermons for the entire congregation.
Puppet ministry:
Another great option is to use these plays in your children’s puppet ministry. The plays take about five minutes and are easy to put on. Kids will have a blast acting out these stories using puppets while learning the truth of God’s word.
Please do not read the characters names before their lines. Let your voice identify the character.

This is a book about discovering what we really need. There are a lot of second-best options, but we weren't made to live a second-best life. Finding what we actually need is different than what we are often offered. There are many books full of opinions, steps and programs. This isn't one of them. This is about craving the things that matter. Things that don't just work, but last.

Do we love people like Jesus loves them?Jesus loved verbs. He loved action words such as live, come, rest, learn, hear, give, go, and even die. Wouldn’t it make sense that the people who claim to follow Jesus would love the same words Jesus loved?Unfortunately, somewhere along the way someone tried to make the word Christian an adjective. So now people speak of "Christian" books and "Christian" music and "Christian" schools.
