For the Love of God, Grab a Crayon

Most of us agree that:

• God’s children of every age need quiet reflection time
• We love God by being in relationships with God and others
• Many of God’s children are visual people
• Many of our resources for children’s ministry fall short

My friend and colleague Adam Walker Cleaveland is creating some wonderful resources for children based on both the narrative and common lectionaries. Who knew he could draw?  (He can.)

Check out his images here at Illustrated Children’s Ministry – Adam’s new venture.  Yes, this is a shameless commercial, but I share it because these are really good resources – upbeat, racially diverse, Biblically sound, and fun.  It’s one of the ways that Adam loves God.

We are constantly seeking effective ways to help children connect with the stories of our Creator and this is an excellent addition to our tool box.  And maybe it will inspire you to pick up a box of crayons too.
