The God of the Past: Big Events!

Kid City Ministry the Week of September 13, 2020

Christ Church families, this week we start our study of Church History. Hopefully you received a copy of our new devotional, Big Events!. (Please let me know if you need one!) The first three reflections fall under the topic of “The God of the Past,” which we will explore in the video linked below. Parents please read these at your breakfast or dinner table or at the bedside of your children in order to talk with them about the person and work of Jesus Christ, on whom the church is founded. Please use the other resources linked below whenever works best for your family. This might be during the sermon, before or after the service, or sometime during the week. Our prayer is that by studying Church History together we will grow in our understanding of God and how he has been faithfully at work to build up a people for himself for thousands of years!
