Bible Memory and Discipleship 

Bible Drill

National Bible Bee

Bible Dill is a program that teaches the importance of studying and memorizing scripture at three levels children (grades 4-6), youth (grades 7-9), and high school (10-12).  It is a discipleship tool for teaching children and youth that helps them develop strong scripture memory skills while learning the books of the Bible and key biblical passages.  Drills are performed to practice finding passages in the Bible quickly.

​Six Essential Spiritual Concepts for Every Child
​
Six Lessons My Kids Must Learn
​​Pen Pal Opportunities
  • E-pals Around the World - ReadWriteThink
(Find a friend for your child to write to from nearly any country in the world.)
  • Sponsor a child through World Vision
We sponsor 4  children from various countries around the world.  Each child we sponsor was born on the exact same day as each of our children.  Each of our children has a child to pray for and give to on their birthday.  This also gives them a peer in another country to write to and learn from.  This process is life changing for the family receiving aid and our children who are learning about life outside of their own country.​
  • Sponsor a child through Compassion International
We also sponsor 4  children from various countries around the world through compassion.  Each child we sponsor was born on the exact same day as each of our children.  This organization is much more child focused in contrast to World Vision's community focus.  Both programs are doing terrific work to improve quality of life and spread the gospel across the globe.
