FAQ'S ABOUT THESE BEATITUDES BIBLE LESSONS
Where can I find a pacing guide for all of the bible units included for ages preschool through 2nd grade? Download the pacing guide for FREE here. The pacing guide includes the unit title, the age group, the big idea, the Bible verse for the unit, and the Bible stories included in the unit.
What Christian perspective is used for these Bible lessons? I am an evangelical Christian and so all units are written from that perspective. They are heavily Bible based and the lesson scripts go verse by verse through the bible story for that lesson.
What translation of the Bible is used? I use a mix of translations to find the most kid-friendly wording for them to memorize. But generally speaking, most Bible verses will be NIV or NLT wordings.
