object lessons

Very good ideas with very little extra preparation needed. Was quite satisfied with my purchase.

My review

It has been a great help for our Children's Church. Great condition and very helpful.

Exactly what I've been looking for.......

This book is everything I've been looking for! I teach a Sunday School class of kids ages 2-10. The lessons in this book are wonderful and very adaptable for different ages! I love lessons that contain something visual or hands-on, because the kids seem to comprehend lessons better that way. I absolutely LOVE this book! I'm so happy to have run on to it! Click on the picture of the book to "Look Inside", and you can preview a few of the lessons before purchasing. You will see exactly why I love this book so much!

An excellent resource

I used this book to plan several children's sermons for our church. It is easy to understand, easy to prepare, and a breeze to adapt and deliver. Many people commented on the messages I delivered, how fun they were and how the ideas presented were so important. I recommend this book to both ministers and laity who need a well written children's ministry resource.

One of the Best in the Genre of Object Lessons for Children

I can't believe no one has reviewed this book yet. Once a week I teach at a chapel for Pre-K and K children at a private Christian school. So I look at a lot of books on children's sermons. The children's sermons in this book would also work very well with grades 1-5. You know what? Even adults would enjoy it. I thought this book was considered a classic, which is why I'm surprized it hasn't been reviewed yet. Some object lesson books are very good, but they require a lot more preparation than I have time for. These lessons are very easy to prepare. They're all one or two pages, and easy to memorize the essential points; Most importantly, they keep children's interests as you're presenting the material.
