New HighPoint Theme!

In Ministry Now, your kids discover that God wants to use them in ministry to help change people's lives. They'll learn that ministry begins by following Jesus. Even if it's not always fun or if they're afraid, kids can still please God by serving others in special ways.

What's the Point?
I will serve God in every way I can!

Life Verse
Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others. (1 Peter 4:10, NIV)

Bible Focus
Peter
