ArkVille KBC

“Our children shall be taught of the Lord, and great shall be their peace.”

We see this scripture being revealed every time we gather in ArkVille.

The growing hunger for sound wisdom and the word, the love for Jesus and the refreshing peace that floods the atmosphere when we gather is priceless.

Tomorrow, we begin another series and it’s usually a day of consecrated prayers and the word.

Check the kids in on time and let them enjoy every bit of the club session.

1. Make God part of the daily rhythm of your home, not something you remember on convenient days.
Spiritual matters should not be an option reserved for less busy days or weekends. He should be woven into the fabric of everyday life.

2. Build simple spiritual habits into existing routines.
If your child can complete assignments daily, they can read their Bible daily. If they can steal a little screen time most days, they can make time for few minutes of quiet time with God.

3. Use everyday moments intentionally.
The drive to school, family meals, bedtime, and after-school hours are opportunities to pray, discuss Scripture, worship, and connect with God.

4. Model the priorities you want your children to adopt.
Children learn what matters most not from what we say, but from what we consistently make room for.

5. Think beyond today.
If children become too busy for God because of school now, they may become too busy because of careers, business, and responsibilities later. Priorities practiced repeatedly become habits for life.

Let’s raise children who are both highly competent intellectually and deeply rooted in God.

We don’t have to choose one over the other. We can win on both sides.

5 Things This Month’s Scripture Quest Taught Us:

1. Never conclude too quickly about a child’s strength or weakness.
As we prepared the children for different activities — from Bible trivia to debates and survival challenges — we noticed something remarkable: it wasn’t always the most gifted or experienced children who won. It was the most prepared. The ones who pushed beyond fear, embraced growth, and gave their best effort.

2. Giving children opportunities to express and defend their convictions is one of the best ways to measure how deeply they understand the truths they’ve been taught.

3. Children are capable of far more than we often give them credit for.
If they are never stretched beyond their comfort zones, many of their hidden strengths may never surface.

4. Our children truly desire to engage with Scripture more than we sometimes assume.
What they often need is the right environment, systems, and approach that help them absorb, enjoy, and appreciate God’s Word better.

5. Life is a survival of the fittest.
How a child responds to disappointment matters. Our children must learn how to handle failure and setbacks — using them as fuel for growth instead of reasons to shrink back or give up.

Tomorrow, we’ll be wrapping up the month with our Financial Literacy Session, one of the children’s favorite club sessions.

Looking forward to another beautiful convergence of our Generational Leaders in training tomorrow.
