Over the last few years, our church has come to love the Sunday School curriculum from Children Desiring God. We have used their God-centered material in several formats including Sunday School, Children’s Church, Nursery, and the Wednesday night children’s ministry. I am personally very glad to promote Children Desiring God. Our kids (and Sunday School teachers) have discovered the Glory of God through this material.
The “ABC’s of God” is a 40 lesson curriculum designed for 1st – 3rd grade Sunday School. Although it can be adapted a little for age in either direction. It uses different letters to teach the character of God. The official description says:
Right thinking about God is essential for the life of faith. Using the alphabet as a framework for teaching the attributes of God, this study explores the delight that God has in Himself as the source, means, and purpose of all things. Each lesson asks and answers three key questions, “Who is God?” “What is He like?” and “How should I act toward Him?” as it presents a theology of God for children.

Random drawing winner is comment #73 Nathan Williams – I’ve contacted him by email. Thanks to everyone who entered. This was an overwhelming response and really shows the need for God-centered and doctrinally rich children’s ministry material.
Thanks to Children Desiring God for sponsoring this give away.
I want to win! This would be a great blessing to our children.
I want to win.
I would really love to win this for our church. I know almost everyone is suffering from tight budgets and low offerings, but even if we weren’t this would be a blessing. We have been looking for new curriculum and our present one will expire soon. Please pick us!
I am new to children’s ministry although I have been a high school teacher for the past 4 years. I teach ages 4-6 in a church that is a church plant. We do not have our own building yet and are renting a couple rooms in a building. We do utilize the resources from our parent church but I’m finding that the materials are not age appropriate nor are they helpful towards adapting for the age of children I teach. I would say that they are geared more towards 4th through 6th graders and not ages 4-6. Please help!
We would love to win!

Finally, a curriculum about how great God is instead of how wonderful we are! Everyone needs it!. (But I’d surely like to win for the kids, and the teachers!)
I WANT TO WIN!!! Always looking for curriculm that gets children to see the heart of God and how He relates to them – what better way than in a format that is already foundational to them. I have heard good things and would love to win!!
Hello! Our children’s ministry has no budget at all, so we would adore winning this to share with low-income children in the area! What a huge blessing it would be in our outreach efforts! Bless you for offering the chance to win it!
I work in the children’s ministry in a small church that is struggling to keep the doors open. Those involved in our ministry are untrained in teaching children. A good curriculum would be a great place to start in providing a model, stability, and enthusiasm is our chiildren’s ministry.
I want to win.
I absolutely, 100% for sure, want to win!!!
But more importantly, it is our children who will be the real winners.
