Come and join us as the curtain rises on an action-packed adventure in Mark’s gospel!

“Jesus is Here!” is full of good news for everyone as we go back to basics to see who Jesus is and why he came. In this first act of a two-part series, we discover what God has to say about who Jesus is and we follow the drama as Jesus heals, helps, forgives and even quiets a raging storm! Where Jesus goes, good news follows.

These six lessons are jam-packed with games, activities, questions, and crafts, as well as leader’s notes and all-age talks, giving you the tools you need to teach big truths in an engaging way. Our parent take-home sheets help make connections across church and home life throughout the week.

Whether the children you teach are meeting Jesus for the first time or have heard these truths before, this series will challenge them to work out their answer and respond personally to Jesus’ big question, “Who do you say I am?” Mark 8:29.

Lift the curtain and enjoy discovering Mark’s good news together!

“Jesus is Here!” has been written to introduce Jesus to children in a simple but engaging way. These are essential truths that we all need to hear and understand, but the accessible language makes this a great resource to use if you are new to our lessons, just starting out in children’s ministry, part of a small team, or in a new church plant.
