“All Things New”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 35, Session 2—Paul's Shipwreck
This week, we wrap up the Book of Acts and study the culmination of Paul’s journey to Rome. The shipwreck along the way garners most of the attention of these final chapters, and rightfully so, but I want us to turn our attention to the last two verses of the book. 30 Paul stayed two whole years in his...

"All Things New": Weekly Leader Training—Unit 35, Session 1: Preaching in All Circumstances
Paul was able to give his defense before Festus. Paul’s accusers knew they couldn’t get what they wanted as long as the trial was in the Roman court system.

“All Things New”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 34, Session 4—Running the Race

I can understand them conceptually, but not experientially. But when Paul talks about an athlete training or running a race—now, that’s...

"All Things New": Weekly Leader Training—Unit 34, Session 3: Breaking Down Barriers
After a brief greeting, Paul in Ephesians 1 praised God for all He accomplished through Christ for our redemption and restoration (vv. 3-4). Paul thanked God for the believer’s maturity in faith in Christ. By His glorious grace, people chosen from before the foundation of the world have come together in praise of His glory in Christ (vv. 6,12,14)....
