New Resources - Vacation Bible School

Ready to cook up some fun? Cokesbury's Food Truck Party VBS invites children of all ages to get on a roll with God as a parade of Food Trucks rolls into their neighborhood for the summer's biggest party! This VBS invites children to pray as Jesus teaches us in Matthew 6:11; "Give us this day our daily bread." The goal of this VBS is to help children build on the practice of using daily prayer to turn to God for their needs — and also to serve as the hands of God in ensuring that the needs of others are met.

Five session video on the following topics: 1. Where Faith and Politics Meet, 2. Christ, Christians, and Culture Wars, 3. How Should We Live? The Ethics of Jesus, 4. Spiritual Maturity and Seeing Gray, 5. What Would Jesus Say to America?
