from God to make good decisions (Proverbs 1:7).

Prepare Your Children for a Lifetime of
Devotion to Christ with Our K-5 Curriculum.
Promiseland Curriculum is designed to provide an environment where kids
learn who Jesus is, how to follow Him, and how basic Bible truths can help them make the right choices now and throughout their lives. Interwoven
throughout the curriculums are these six field-tested core program values:
1.Child-Targeted — Bible lessons, songs, and activities are designed to be
taught in ways that best reach children.
2.Relevant — Promiseland lessons help children discover that God’s Word is written for them and can be applied to their lives, even in today’s culture!
3.Creative Bible Teaching — Because not all kids learn the same way, Promiseland Curriculum utilizes various creative teaching methods that appeal to kids, such as realistic drama sketches, video clips, storytelling, and contemporary music. With new surprises, games, and fun activities each week, kids become fascinated by Bible stories and want to learn more!
4.Intentional Shepherding — Life change happens best in a small, biblically
functioning community, where adults are modeling Christ to children by
believing, encouraging, knowing, discipling, and helping them become more like Christ.
5.Safe — Children learn best when they feel physically, emotionally, and spiritually safe.
6.Fun — Kids and adult volunteers, alike, come back week after week because they experience how Bible learning can be FUN through Promiseland Curriculum!
