Multiple Intelligences

Chrystal Flerchinger

We often think in terms of only “yes” or “no” when it comes to intelligence, as in, “Are you intelligent: Yes or no?” But all of us have intelligence. We need to consider whether we tend to think more in terms of words or numbers.

Entering the World of Kids

Catrina LeSure

It’s essential that you make the effort to learn and understand the world of kids. As kids see that you are interested in what interests them, they will in turn become interested in what interests you, namely, God and His Word! This provides you with a pathway right into their hearts. It’s a lot of fun too!
