Love Your Church for Kids

Love Your Church by Tony Merida launched in 2021, just as many churches and ministries were getting going afresh with in-person gatherings after the pandemic. It was an amazingly timely release—for many churches, it proved to be just what was needed to refocus and reset for the months and years ahead. We produced a small group kit to go with the book, and this was enthusiastically used by small groups in churches across the globe.

In one church in McCaysville, Georgia, children’s ministry director Sally Morris decided to work on producing a kids’ curriculum to go alongside the book. It meant that the children and young people in her church could follow the same teaching plan as the adults, so that the whole church learned together. After completing the curriculum in her own context, Sally sent us what she’d written, asking if it could be offered to other churches.

That curriculum is what we’re now excited to be able to share on our website for free download!

Each of the 8 studies takes a chapter from Love Your Church and presents the key concepts in a way that is digestible for children. It features fully written-out teaching material, including visual illustration ideas, discussion questions, introductory games, and optional extra activities.

Whether you’re working through Love Your Church as an adult congregation or not, we hope this resource will provide valuable teaching for the children at your church as they learn what it really means to be part of a church family.
