    About this ebook

    My Baptist Faith teaches the foundational truths of the Baptist faith in language a child can understand. Paraphrasing the 18 articles of the Baptist doctrine into contemporary language, this Christian education tool shows teachers, parents, and leaders how to communicate rich concepts in bite sized pieces. Through activities and experiments, you can turn your Christian education period into a dynamic, interactive, fun, kid friendly time that builds a lifelong foundation in the lives of your students.

    My Baptist Faith’s curriculum incorporates science, math, gross motor skills, art, music, and more into easy lessons that can be customized to your child’s age appropriate faith and learning level. This is a great resource for home schools, children’s ministry, or children’s study. It is easily adaptable to small or large groups. My Baptist Faith’s ultimate goal is to help your children learn, apply, and appreciate the distinctiveness of the National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc. version of the Baptist Articles of Faith.

      Introduction

      I started officially homeschooling my daughter the same year she was baptized at our church. At the time they had a terrific believer’s baptism class for children that verified children were fully understanding the concept of baptism. When she finished the class i wanted to go further. A search of denominationally appropriate curriculum for her age proved to be less than productive. Thus, My Baptist Faith Kids’ Style was born.

      My Baptist Faith Kids’ Style began as a way to teach my daughter what it meant to be a Baptist Christian. It was important to me that she understood what made us distinctive from other Christians and from nonbelievers. It has grown into a full curriculum incorporating science, math, gross motor skills, art, music, and more. I hope you find this resource a great asset to your home school, children’s class, or children’s group. It is easily adaptable to small or large groups.

      You will find five major sections in this book - Articles of Faith: Kids’ Style Version, a Sample Lesson Plan based on the first two Articles of Faith, the Activity Resource Bank, the Memory Challenge, and the Articles of Faith: National Baptist Version. These can be used as a foundation for developing your Christian education curriculum, workshops, or personalized interactive study sessions.

      The Articles of Faith: Kids’ Style version lists the distinctive Baptist beliefs in a manner in which children can review and retain. It is important to note that this in no way suggests a doctrinal rewrite
