We're in the month remembering Christ's coming, and the resulting hope, love, joy, and peace we've been given.
Shades Preschool, Shades Kids, and Shades Students all have various Advent resources to help your family worship throughout this season.
We also taped four episodes of The Shades Podcast specifically for this time of year. Bradley Patton sat down with Sarah Kent, Stephanie Hartsell, and Jeremy Horton to discuss how to walk through these Advent guides with preschoolers, children, and students. But they also talk about what truth of Christ's coming for us means to them. Each episode will release over the next four weeks. Be sure to subscribe to the podcast below!
It's never too early to learn that Jesus came and was born exactly as your child was born. He was just like them in every way. Our preschool ministry has created these Advent stickers and workbooks for your child to complete. These materials are a great chance for you to sit together as a family and talk about what this season means for us as Christians. For more information, or to have our Preschool Advent Guide mailed to your home, email Sarah Kent.
Our children and preteen team have put together a collection of resources to assist your family walking through Advent. The good news of what Jesus is did for us is found in our need for Him; our children and preteens are at the age where they're beginning to understand sin. Thus, Advent is a great time to introduce or reinforce the hope found in Jesus. To receive the Shades Kids Advent Guide via mail, email Stephanie Hartsell.
We're all drawn to heroes. Dramatic rescues get our hearts pulsing, and no rescue in human history turns around more than Jesus coming to bring redemption to us ... God with us. Our student ministry has created a great guide for your student to study this Advent season. To learn and know that Glory came down and met us where we are.
