Kolby & Mary Beth King

God changed their lives… With that being said, Kolby is the children's minister at First Baptist Church in Owasso, Oklahoma, where he and Mary Beth, his wife, minister to 150 elementary students each week. They are also the founders of three-thirty ministries, a resource network for the purpose of providing affordable resources to churches and families around the world. Kolby is a ventriloquist (which basically means he likes to talk to himself) and Mary Beth eats fire as a way of sharing the Gospel. During their years in evangelism and student ministry, they picked up other interesting ministry tools including stunts with six-foot balloons, balloon sculptures, fire-juggling (which one should never do on a windy day!), and a variety of other unique activities for the purpose of sharing Jesus with others.

Introduction

_______________________

Our Goal

To help students experience God’s Word in a colorful, fun, surprising and creative manner; to ignite in them a hunger that leads them to dig in, crawl inside, explore, enjoy and live out God’s truth.

Teaching Method

Children only remember 10% of what they hear, 20% of what they see, and 30% of what they hear and see. They are concrete learners, which means they retain 80 to 90% of what they do, touch, smell, taste, and help teach. Therefore, these lessons are packed with a teaching style that will help them to:

Find it. Taste it. Touch it. Make it.

Know it. Grow it. See it. Show it.

Live it!

BIBLE LESSON

(Based on Daniel 1:1-20)

SAY: Good morning. We are so glad that you’re here today. Today we’re beginning a new series called No Compromise: Dare to be a Daniel.

ASK: What does the word compromise mean? (To compromise in the way we’re talking, means to give in to a way of living that you know is wrong.)

SAY: When we say, No Compromise, we’re saying, Live for Jesus without compromise. Or, Live for Jesus totally—Do what you know is right without giving in to anything that you know is wrong.

CONTROL TOOL

Anytime I say, No Compromise! I want you to say, Live for Jesus!

Practice a few times. If you want have a boys verses girls competition to see who can be louder.

REPEAT after me: I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength—Philippians 4:13.

SAY: God gives you the strength to do everything that He calls you to do and God gives you the strength to live for Jesus.

RAISE your hand…if you think it’s EASY to live for Jesus.

RAISE your hand…if you think it’s
