Proprietary in the Kingdom?
“…and He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and understanding, in knowledge and all manner of workmanship…” Exodus 35:31
Repeatedly throughout the book of Exodus we see God endowing the children of Israel with wisdom, knowledge and understanding for all manner of craftsmanship, workmanship, and leadership. I do not imagine that following their grasp of situations they sat amongst themselves and debated patents or copyrights. The people fully understood that the knowledge they so recently found themselves privy to was entirely from God. We seem to have lost this ability over the last few thousand years. Read more

Creating a Slideshow in ACDSee For Children’s Ministry
by Josie Moody
Chances are your head is full of ideas for putting together a slideshow, which means you are off to a great start. For those of you who have put their creative reflexes on holidays and are looking for ideas to use in children’s ministry, keep reading. For end of summer, early fall ideas, you could use pictures from your church’s Vacation Bible School program, or Kid’s Camp. You could also use photos from other sources (with permission) to highlight a lesson being taught, such as ‘creation’, parables, or a children of the world/missions theme. Another popular idea is to recap all the events or highlights of the past year (harvest, fundraisers, baptisms, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Passover, and Easter). It would be wise to try and include photos of all the kids that attend your children’s program, if using photos from different events, so that no one feels left out. Kids do enjoy seeing their pictures projected on a big screen and it makes them feel important. Read more

Media Use in Children’s Ministry
by Josie Moody
Is media really that important in working with children today? I’m sure I’m not the only one who has asked that question. The fact is, most kids in today’s world are tech savvy. They are learning to read and do basic math on the computer, and their school assignments are required to be typed before they’ve even learned the proper finger placement on the keyboard. When not in school, kids are regularly entertained by either tv, gaming systems, mp3 players, ipods, ipads, itouches, or iphones…you get the idea. With that said, we can’t seem to get away from media and technology, so we may as well use it for good. When you approach teaching in a way that sparks the interest of young, eager minds, you are not just “keeping them occupied for a bit”, but you are actually equipping them for a future in serving Christ.

Why Forgive?
Written by Deborah Downs Basehore
Cor 2:7 “…you ought rather to forgive and comfort him lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with too much sorrow. Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love to him.”
I have been thinking a lot over the last year about the concept of forgiveness. The more I thought on it and compared my understanding against scripture the more I realized I was not properly grasping the motivation and intent behind forgiveness. I had always assumed that forgiveness on my part was for myself; that I had to forgive so that I would feel better and be able to move past the offense. While this may be a byproduct of forgiveness it is not the proper intent behind the act of forgiveness. I would never say that God forgives me so that He can feel better about His situation and move on. Why does God forgive me and shouldn’t his reasons for forgiving also be my reasons for forgiving? We are told in Matthew that God’s forgiveness to us is proportional in some degree to our forgiveness of others. And so I must assume from that, that my forgiveness should bear similarities to the forgiveness of God. Why then does God forgive? Read more
