Thanks for the amazing curriculum—it’s made a huge difference at our church.
Rev. Jeremy Hylen, St. Paul’s UCC (Sheboygan, WI)
The Sunday School teachers are loving this [Living the Word: Kids] curriculum that goes along with the Narrative Lectionary and watching the kids who attend service after Sunday School totally ace all the questions during the children’s message was awesome. Kudos to you and your team!
