This quarter, the Makonde Team is teaching the Wed night two-year old class at Downtown.  Sometimes we forget parts of the songs, and most of the time we sing off key, but we love the kids, and we certainly have been blessed by the experience. The two-year olds have taught us about joy, transparency, and what it means to be God’s children.  The following are some of the lessons we have learned; perhaps some blog readers who have taught children’s Bible-school classes in the past will recognize the truth in them:

It’s OK to cry in church.

“This Little Light Of Mine” is best sung with flashlights.

Read your Bible and pray every day…

David and Goliath is quite a disturbing story to tell a two-year old.

Church should be more like a musical.

You don’t really have to stay in your seat.

It’s nice to share.

“Four Little Speckled Frogs” actually is a church song.

Only God could make a butterfly.

God loves his kids.
