Kids are naturally curious, and when you’re curious about who God is it’s easy to grow your relationship with Jesus. That’s why, in this 4-part series for Vacation Bible School, we’re going to engage kids’ imaginations! Kids will not only get curious about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics — but also about the God who created it all!


They’ll hear from early church leaders like Paul, Peter, John, and Timothy, who helped the first Jesus-followers wonder what made their stories unique, what gifts God gave them (and how they could use those gifts to serve), what they could learn from others, and how they could spend time with God.


Day 1

  • We’ll encourage kids to wonder about the unique story God is telling with their lives and how their story might connect with God’s big story of salvation through Jesus.
  • Big Idea: I wonder what makes my story unique?
  • Bible: Ephesians 2:4-10 — Paul teaches the church of Ephesus that God created and saved us for a purpose.


Day 2

  • We’ll help kids discover how God uniquely created them and wonder how they can use their unique gifts to love others and change the world together with Jesus.
  • Big Idea: I wonder what gifts God gave me?
  • Bible: I Peter 4:10 and II Timothy 1:6-7 — Peter teaches believers and Paul teaches Timothy that God has given us gifts we can use to serve others.


Day 3

  • We’ll encourage kids to practice healthy community and help them wonder how learning from, caring for, and loving others can help their relationship with Jesus grow.
  • Big Idea: I wonder what I can learn from others?
  • Bible: I John 4:11, I Peter 4:8 — John and Peter teach believers how we can love each other like God loves us.


Day 4

  • We’ll encourage kids to wonder how they can get to know and become more like Jesus through worship, prayer, and reading and memorizing the words God gave us in the Bible.
  • Big Idea: I wonder how I can spend time with God?
  • Bible: Colossians 1:9-12, 3:16, 4:1-3 — Paul teaches believers how to continue growing in their faith.
