Testimonials

The small group adult curriculum is rich, relevant and thought-provoking. Small groups will enjoy the teaching video, small group questions and daily scripture that is sure to encourage and inspire those seeking to build their relationship with Jesus and each other!

Heather Binkley

So we went to reading the script. A bit better. Then that went to asking the questions. Breaking down the script with questions. Reading some more of script. Answering questions. Let me tell you we love it. We never have enough time to get through the conversation. We have had one adult who has been going to church for years actually accept the Lord for the first time. I have a 70's plus adult who tells me that she has been going to Sunday School since she was a kid and for the first time in her life she looks forward to coming on a Sunday morning.
