Christian Sunday school is the place to get children motivated to live the principles of Christ. Use these ideas and discussions to show how they can put Christianity into action everyday.

I like to use the lesson of Joshua crossing the Jordan to remind my 6-8 year olds that everyone is important and valuable to God. I also use this Sunday school activity that can be done outside or inside.

The Sunday school material in the story of Daniel in the lion’s den is a great story to engage your 12-14 year olds in a discussion of self truth and doing what is right. Drama works well with this age group and helps them to act out consequences of making wrong choices.

Use your time in children Sunday school to help your 9-11 year olds think about who they are, how they are special to God, and what makes them unique.

It is hard for all of us to stop and take the time to listen and really pay attention to the important people in our lives. Use the story of Mary and Martha in church Sunday school to teach this valuable skill to your class of 6-8 year olds.

Engaging our 12-14 year olds in class isn’t always easy. These Sunday school lessons for teens using the story of Samson work great to grab their interest and to get them thinking about their own strengths and weaknesses.

As a teacher of youth Sunday school, I feel it is vital to show children the connection between what is happening in the world today and how to relate it to their beliefs. My 9-11 year old students like to feel they can make a difference in their world and this lesson can start them thinking about ways to do that.
