Prepared by Teachable Heart Ministries

2 Timothy 3:16

“All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” NIV

Which version is right?

• KJV, NKJV, NIV, LB, NLT, NCV, ASV….Which one should I use?

• Check the different versions • Use the one that best suits the

message or life application

The Honor…• Week after week in Sunday school, kids

church, and mid-week, you will have opportunity to teach Scriptures to children. You may be teaching a memory verse or simply reciting verses which support your message.

Be creative!• Say it, sing it, rap it, or echo it• Show it- use pictures, props, or object

lessons, with food, with balloon illustrations, tricks and illusions, optical illusions, act it out (word by word), sign language, rebus, life application skits, and puppets

• Send it- take homes, scripture in my pockets, puzzles, bookmarks, coloring pages, verse crafts

• Do it- Sword Drills games, scrambled scripture games, and service projects

The Divine Agent and the Promise…• Jesus said… “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit,

whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” – John 14:26 (NKJV)

• Whatever method you use, God’s Holy Spirit is the divine agent at work in the hearts of the children you minister to.
