For my own sanity and in the effort to do what’s best for my kids, I need to get off this roller coaster of feelings about “real” vs “online” church.

Here are some great resources for nurturing faith during the coronavirus outbreak.

Kids need to see that their parents believe the truth of God’s faithfulness; he does not leave us to face crises like Coronavirus alone, but he walks with us through times of trouble.

Kids Corner has created an easy-to-use weekly family devotional to help you and your children walk through Lent together.

At 46 days (when you include Sundays), Lent is almost twice as long as Advent. Use these simple paper chains to help children visualize the countdown to Easter.

The gift I’m giving my family this Christmas is meaningful, will last all year long, was prepared in a few minutes, and didn’t cost more than the paper on which it was printed. 

As parents and school officials, we need to give our kids real help when it comes to bullying. A new ebook from Kids Corner offers some tools, grounded in Scripture, in this effort.
