Details
In partnership with Salem Publishing, DYM now provides Lift Curriculum for Children's & Preschool Ministries (PreK-5th Grade)
Lift is a Christ-Centered Children’s Ministry curriculum. This means that Jesus is central to every lesson. Whether we begin with an Old Testament story, a New Testament passage, or a lesson based on a topic, all paths lead to Jesus. Each story is told, and each lesson delivered, with the purpose of promoting and glorifying Christ in the minds and hearts of students.
John 12:32 - And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.
Lift The Name Of Jesus
Lift Curriculum exists to lift Jesus up before children with every lesson, in the belief that if we do so, he will draw all people to himself. This means that the self-sacrificial love, goodness, grace, and beauty of Christ are put on display, as we explore how He is the main character and event of the Bible.
Jesus Every Week
We want to help you lift up the name of Jesus every week. If a child only comes to church once, we want to make sure they hear about Jesus.
Every series includes everything you need to program your kids' ministry program. This includes curriculum, games, worship, object lesson videos and Bible story videos. But we don't leave you to fend for yourself. We also equip you with a scope & sequence to follow and easy to navigate lesson folders so you know exactly what lesson to teach and what videos to use every single week.
