A Thirteen week journey from before the earth was created, to the Garden of Eden, through Tabernacle of Moses, to the Garden of Gethsemane, right to Mary's Alabaster box. The time is now to bring a generation into the heart of worship The word radical means an extreme difference of what traditionally is the case and/or to form bases for or getting to the root of something. In the case of this Radical Worship curriculum both of those definitions encapsulated what this curriculum is all about. Today worship is widely been defined by the two fast songs and one slow song we sing in our adult and children congregations; a definition defined by tradition and religion rather than ones heart crying out in devotion, obedience, and love for their God in a lifestyle of worship. Deep within the pages of this Radical Worship curriculum you will lead your children on a journey to redefine what true biblical worship is all about; changing what they think and feel about worship. Along with redefining true biblical worship for a generation, this Curriculum brings a generation back to the ancient order and principals of God's blueprints of worship saturated in the pages of His word; re-establishing a strong foundation of how we are to worship a Holy God.

A 13 Week Curriculum to Lead Children into an Understanding of the Principles of the Kingdom of Heaven and How to walk as a Citizen of God's KingdomThrough the view finder of a kingdom, your children/youth will receive the revelation that the bible is a history book of both past, present, and future, depicted the life of a king, His kingdom, and His citizens. It will become more than some stories of long ago, but become a relevant history book into the 21st century. They will learn about the original government established on this earth well before any other, as well as the constitution of that government we call the bible that surpasses any earthy government constitution or laws on this earth. They will gain an understanding as to the culture of their new nation as they receive the kingdom of God and how it can operate in their lives to bring them power, joy, and victory on this earth. They will discover their own purpose for being born on this earth and feel a since of belonging to something greater than themselves. A fear of God will be reestablished in their heart for God's kingship as they approach His throne as their King, and they will regain a new level of authority that comes from a spirit of humbleness and reverence for their king and His kingdom.

A 13 Week Curriculum to lead children into how they can become the living stones of 1 Peter 2:4 through some of the most popular stories of stones in the Bible.Many times in scripture God uses metaphors and illustrations in the natural or seen world to describe things in the spirit or unseen world. One of these times in scripture is found in 1 Peter 2:4. First through a detailed word study of the use of "stone", both in the Old Testament and New, children will begin to see some of the most popular and well known stories of the bible in a completely different way. What has always seemed like simply good stories that unfolded the pages of biblical history, will now bring a passion, understanding, and zeal to each child of exactly what their calling and purpose is on earth as living stones for Christ. And through creative spirit lead altar ministry worship experiences, each lesson and purpose revealed will be sealed deep within each child's spirits.Second, the last two weeks are completely devoted to moving the children from receiving a revelation and mystery of becoming living stones in the word, into finding new ones for themselves. With all of my heart I feel we have regurgitated the word too much to children without developing in them a love and passion for the word of God, coupled with the tools on how to meditate on it, seek out hidden mysteries in, and apply it to their own lives. In week 12 they will be given the tools to begin to seek out the hidden mysteries in the word for themselves, and then week 13 will be an activation week encourage them to prepare a presentation on a mystery that they found in the word themselves.

A 13 week Children's Ministry curriculum to teach a generation how to walk in true authentic Biblical grace. In our pursuit to refute legalistic religion of past generations, the grace movement of the recent decades in some ways has caused an extreme pendulum swing that has left a generation of young adults with a perverted, deceiving, lawless view of grace; yielding a generation of Christians full of compromising powerless faith. A generation has embraced a grace that has become a get out of jail free card that somehow gives permission for continual and perpetual sin. When the reality is, true biblical and authentic grace is not absent of the law, but is the law fulfilled through a yielded and surrendered soul in Christ Jesus.This curriculum is all about moving the grace pendulum to the middle long enough to help a generation find a holistic and biblical view of grace that they can walk out in their Christian life. Grace defined in its simplest term is the power of the cross at work though the Holy Spirit in a believer. Grace received at salvation is only the beginning of grace; authentic grace is a continual work in progress in a believer. In this curriculum you will empower children to allow grace to work in their life to yield righteousness, love, power, true worship, an intimate relationship with Christ, and a passionate desire to go into all the world and impart the grace they have received...wherever their world may be; this is Amazing Grace.

Satan has used every avenue possible to keep Jesus from being the center of our homes; stripping us of our Godly foundation and eroding the pathway we must take to raise righteous children and keep holy marriages. In my opinion, the biggest avenue Satan has taken to preoccupy the families of God is to keep us from worshipping God as a family. No longer do we make worship a lifestyle in our homes. Due to the pressure of this world, self-centeredness, and worldly desires, worship has been lowered to a mere service on Sunday mornings or Wednesday evenings. We no longer seek God's presence together within the walls of our home; mother and father, son and daughter offering up sacrifices to the Lord. Where are the stones that lead to Christ in our homes? God is waiting on you and I to lay down our stones before our children, building our own Godly foundation in our families and creating a pathway to Christ for those who follow in our footsteps. This book is full of "Stone Moments" that create fun and meaningful ways your family can seek His presence and have divine encounters with your heavenly Father together. Each time you worship with your family, you welcome the presence of Jesus into your home, laying down the stones of righteousness and the fear of God. "each one of you take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, 6 that this may be a sign among you when your children ask in time to come, saying, 'What do these stones mean to you'Joshua 4:4

We all have a frame. Our frame is made up of thoughts, responses, language, and actions that define for us who we are. Like osmosis, our frame begins at birth through what we hear, what we believe, what we say, and what we do. If a child does not know whose they are, the world around them will define their frame. This is one of the most destructive consequences of a fatherless generation.But a fatherless generation in the natural, is only a manifestation of a fatherless generation in the spirit. A fatherless culture, lost without identity or purpose, is filling the void of longing with all that Satan has to steal, kill, and destroy. The anti-Christ, culture-shifting ideologies, of a dysfunctional and confused generation, has filled every aspect of society. If we are going to shift and change culture it must start with a regeneration of children of God who know who they are, because they know whose they are. A generation that is framed inside of Christ functioning out of the unlimited love of the Father. Addressing some of the most relevant culture-shifting topics of today's generation, like homosexuality, transgender, abortion, and selfish and worldly thinking, we will uproot and dismantle the frame of the world that is trying to define a generation. Your children will find the Father's heart towards them, responding to His love and truth, their language will shift, and they will find their purpose in doing what the Father does. There are no limits to a generation of sons and daughters who know who they are, because they know whose they are.

Your family will find the Father's heart towards them, responding to His love and truth, their language will shift, and they will find their purpose in doing what the Father does. Many parents might be asking why such subjects as homosexuality, transgender, and abortion in a family devotional? The truth is, these things are not cultural issues, or moral issues, but spiritual issues. Satan has waged an all-out war on the mind and soul of a generation, to steal, kill, and destroy their identity and abort the will and purposes of the Father in their lives. But not only in their lives, but in the lives of families and generations to come. These worldly ideologies go against the very fabric of the Father's creation of family and is a strategic plan of Satan to destroy God's DNA multiplying on earth itself. We must have the answer for the battle Satan is waging for God's seed. If this generation does not hear and receive truth from us, they will hear and receive lies from the world, and we, the parents, will be held accountability for what we did not impart. Let your voice be the one that leads your family into truth and identity in the Father.

"Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her" (Mark 14:9). Without ever singing a song or playing an instrument, Mary's worship so moved the heart of Jesus that it would be spoken in the same breathe as Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection. Think about that. Of all the great men and women of the Bible, all the signs and wonders done through their hands, and this women of no stature, no title or great accomplishment to speak of, has the honor of being the only testimony that Jesus assures worthy enough to share space with the teaching of His gospel. Wow, the power of one act of worship.Worship in fact is of such significance that Jesus speaks of it as the one thing the Father is seeking after in His children. "But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him" (John 4:23). Jesus used Mary's worship as an example for us all on how to worship in the way the Father is seeking after. Worship not found in a song, a dance, a great beat, or a great sound - but instead found in a heart that responds to the love of the Father. Worship is a matter of the heart, not of the flesh. How we lead a generation to worship, will define for them what worship is.This leads me to very weighty questions we should all be asking ourselves as we lead children in our worship services, "Are we leading them into worship the Father is seeking after?" "Are we leading them to move the heart of Jesus?" "Are we leading them to worship with their heart, not of their flesh?" In this book you will discover the answers to those hard questions and more. You will explore the origins of worship, worship the Father is seeking after, key principles to use to lead them in worship that is spirit and truth along with examples of this kind of worship, and lastly you will explore the fruit of such a generation of worshipers. The weight of our ministry to children is heavy, but let it be said about us - that we taught a generation how to move the heart of the Father through worship, and that their impact may remain throughout eternity.
