These are some recommended resources for parents, leadership and children in your church. Use them and catch the 2020 Vision!

The latest research reveals that 75% of the children raised in evangelical churches are leaving the faith.  It appears that the church is hemorrhaging its covenant children out into the culture.  Did Peter know something that we don’t when he preached, “For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off…”? 

The newest SHOW ME JESUS curriculum support from Great Commission Publications is a 300+ page Bible coloring book. However it is much, much more than a coloring book.  Along with the 158 reproducible Bible pictures for coloring are 158 pages filled with activities and classroom helps for teaching the story depicted on the coloring page.

What is the 2020 Vision?  Here at Christian Education and Publications we want to help the local church with training and resources that will enable you to spend this decade focused on training up a generation of Kingdom disciples.

Over 100 people involved in children's ministry attended a conference sponsored by CEP and GCP, January 12-14 in Atlanta.  Continue to check this page as more content is posted after the conference.  Scroll down to see resources and news from the conference.

Sue Jakes recommends gifts to give to children.

Why should your church buy a video or DVD to show one time when it can have unlimited access to over 1,500 selections? From Bible study to kids' entertainment, from doctrine to money management, the video library maintains a comprehensive inventory of videos and DVD's for your church to use in its Christian education program.

The 2008 WIC Love Gift is helping CEP provide resources and training for equipping our churches to make disciples of the next generation. Making disciples of the next generation is the very heart of Christian Education and Publications. We believe our heart is in the right place. Read more and see the video and consider your opportunity to give to this ongoing ministry.

I remember when I first began teaching high school students thirty years ago. I was told  never to smile before Christmas and to make sure they knew who was boss.  I was quite young then, so there was “some” wisdom in those words.  However, now as I teach our high school class at church, I see a need to be much more honest and real with these young people.
