Sunday School News - May“Steppin’ Up, Divin’ In, and Reachin’ Out” ![]() The 3 objective of Sunday School are:
I recently read an article by Rick Warren, “How to grow a Healthy Church”. He indicates that “Balance” is key. Let’s take the early church as an example. Acts 2:42-47:
42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to the prayers.
43 Then fear came over everyone, and many wonders and signs were being performed through the apostles. 44 Now all the believ-ers were together and held all things in common. 45 They sold their possessions and property and distributed the proceeds to all, as anyone had a need.[a] 46 Every day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the temple complex, and broke bread from house to house. They ate their food with a joyful and humble attitude, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And every day the Lord added to them[b] those who were being saved. Dimensions of a healthy Sunday School Class: 1. Classes grow WARMER through fellowship. 2. Classes grow DEEPER through discipleship. 3. Classes grow STRONGER through worship. 4. Classes grow BROADER through ministry. 5. Classes grow LARGER through evangelism. Take a moment and pray about your Sunday School class, which of these areas can you help to grow your Sunday School class you are a member of?
