Lessons, and the method behind them.

Every class day is built as a deck of teaching cards — the scripture block, the questions, and the invitation, on one screen. The decks are here to take and use. So is the reasoning behind how they are built.

This year’s theme

The parable of the water

Climb the hill. Drink the water. Then go tell somebody how good it was.

Three drawn panels and two verses of Isaiah (Isaiah 12:3–4) that the whole year hangs on — faith and works to get up the hill, joy at the tap, and praise on the way back down.
