We believe in offering you MANY creative choices to teach a Bible story, not just one. We welcome member-created content and also recruit creative volunteers to help us write innovative lessons for both Rotation Model and traditionally organized Sunday Schools.

In addition to all our public lesson forums, a volunteer group of creative Children's Educators and pastors works with our Lead Writers to produce extra-creative, broadly-graded Sunday School lessons for Rotation-style and traditionally organized programs. We call them "The Writing Team." Come See the Writing Team's Lesson Menu! and learn more about their work.Coming Soon: 7 Creative Lessons on The Story of Ruth

The lessons and ideas in our Bible Story Lesson Forums are organized by creative teaching mediums and classrooms such as art, video, drama, and cooking (which we call "workshops" for fun). Kids learn the same Bible story for several weeks in a row using different media and teachers each week. If you're using a traditional "new story each week" model, browse all the workshops for your story and pick one that fits your needs.
Here's a short video about the Rotation Model...Here's an example of a Workshop Rotation-style schedule for 2 broadly graded groups. View the presentations for more scheduling and scaling examples.
