Why This Matters

We believe that children NEED to hear Biblical truth, especially in today’s culture. They are bombarded with so many things on a daily basis that have the potential to impact them negatively. Bible2School is offered to children in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade because that is the age their brains start to develop morals and values and their thinking goes from concrete to abstract. In fact, kids at this age often ask big, life questions. Thanks to the national released time rulings, we can help these children learn about God’s love for them DURING their public school day!

Bible2School is Impacting Children, Their Families & Friends

Our program focuses on 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders, however, Bible2School is also impacting the childrens’ families and friends. Since close to 60% of the children in our programs do not regularly attend a church, many of the children are hearing about God for the first time. This also means that these children are coming home and talking about Jesus to their parents and siblings. In fact, 15% of parents shared that they started attending a church because their child attends Bible2School. We believe THIS is how we can change communities.

See Lives Changed Through Bible2School

We thrive on Godstories — little glimpses of God working through the children in our programs. Check out just a few of our favorite Godstories below.

Watch Ivy’s powerful baptism story!

“I’m very glad that Bible2School exists because I never would have accepted God into my life because I probably would have never heard about Him!”

“Wait, there’s a heaven? There’s really a heaven?!”

One of our young boy's eyes grew wide as his small group leader joyfully shared about Heaven, Jesus, and the God who created and loves him.

“I want to take good notes!”

A little girl came to her Bible2School program with a notebook in hand. She wrote ferociously during the lesson. She told her leader “I want to take good notes because my Dad wants to know how to trust in God!”

"I gave my Bible away..."

A 2nd grader shared “I don’t have the comic book Bible anymore that I got at Bible2School. I gave it to my neighbor who doesn’t know Jesus.”

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments I give you…Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road…Deuteronomy 6:5-7
