rp_land-150x150.jpgWhat is the most effective way for any person to learn something? There are multiple factors! None would argue that a person’s ability to learn is affected by their cognitive ability, emotional maturity, and multiple other factors. When it comes to children’s ministry, it’s important to understand this concept when teaching Bible stories and spiritual concepts. When making disciples of kids, it’s important that we understand how they learn.

Here’s what you’ll hear today:

  • The difference between “closely-graded” and “broadly-graded”
  • Why it’s important to use curriculum that aims at each age-group
  • An overview of The Levels of Biblical Learning® and how they were developed
  • The importance of age-appropriate language, media, visuals, and questions

Look for the updates to LOBL (The Levels of Biblical Learning®) in late 2015!

Jeff Land loves life! That’s pretty great, because his job here at LifeWay is the Team Leader for Bible Studies for Life: Kids. Jeff loves his life which is so blessed by his amazing wife, Abbey, and their four sons, Reed, Nash, Will, and Tuck. A natural encourager and fun-lover, look for Jeff’s posts about teacher appreciation and game ideas. When not serving at work, Jeff serves 2nd graders at his church, First Baptist Church, Joelton, TN.
