What We're TeachingCHALLENGE ACCEPTED: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON JESUS' MINISTRY SERIES OVERVIEW: Great sports moments tend to involve people who accepted a big challenge, one that required courage and an ability to keep going. This month, kids will have fun using sports to learn about the many ways they can say yes to challenges bravely. Jesus accepted many challenges. Through the stories we know about him, we learn a bunch of things that help kids walk through whatever they are facing. Let’s cheer on every kid to be able to say, Jesus takes care of me, Jesus shows me the truth, Jesus helps me when I'm tempted, Jesus understands my challenges.
