How To Create Simple Sunday School Lessons


Have you ever asked yourself "What am I going to teach this week"?

Could you use a little help to create powerful, effective lessons which are Christ centered?

I have too! Too many times I've been up late at night trying to match my Pastor's message with Biblical stories appropriate for Sunday School. Here's what worked for me.

1. Stop Worrying! Use the Right Tools to Eliminate Guess Work!

Seriously, this was powerful concept once I grasped it. It allowed everything else to flow naturally. God has gifted us with the gift of teaching. While we love teaching, it may be cumbersome trying to organize our materials into something meaningful for our students.

Be careful! There's a lot of stuff on the internet to sort through. Look for tools which save time and are cost effective. I made an investment in the right tool which has been priceless in assisting me in creating Christ-Centered lesson plans.

2. Get Organized

Stop worrying! Get your tools or templates which help you create your lesson plans and then get organized!

Focus yourself on using only a few resources each week. This will slim down the amount of data you have to sort through, determine if it's relevant and then decide to use. Get folders, stickers and highlighters!! Make it fun! Set up a folder on your computer for each week's lesson and create a naming convention such as Sunday_School_Lessons_Date.

3. Feel the joy of Teaching!

That's a lot of pressure weighing down on our shoulders if you ask me! So much so that every week can be a hectic balancing act between normal life and creating meaningful, engaging and fun Sunday School Lessons.

Never again be afraid to take on a role you know you are gifted for. You now know how get the maximum benefit from your teaching gift.

If your passion is teaching Sunday school, you should be feeling overjoyed. There is no shame in getting help to design a life which allows us to give our best so that others are receiving our best. Do you miss this feeling?

Stop Worrying! Get Organized! Feel The Joy of Teaching!

How would it feel to know your plans are reaching students in a way that helps them develop a better quality of life! Your small contribution into their lives can be life changing. Using lesson plans which are simple, to the point, fun, and memorable all contribute to a better walk with Christ for your students.

Stop Worrying! Get Organized! Feel The Joy of Teaching!
