There really are no words to describe this past week. Cities and states are banning gatherings, closing schools, restricting businesses, and asking people to stay home as much as possible as a result of the coronavirus.
In what feels like an unsettling, uncertain, and challenging place—we can rest in knowing that God is in control and Jesus is with us.
No matter if the COVID-19 is here for days, weeks, or months—Jesus is with us. We have hope in Him. We are still the church. And your ministry still matters.
Although our ministries are beginning to look different, they are as important as ever. So, as we all navigate these times, we want to be able to resource you and the families you serve as best as possible.
To get started, we’ve included some free resources for you and for sharing.
COVID-19 Lesson Resources
Download this free lesson titled “God Takes Our Worries” that includes student resources and coronavirus materials. Please take the liberty to use this in your live-streams and recordings. You can also distribute the materials to the families in your ministry for at-home study.
Lessons Parents Can Lead At Home
Grab this free book with 13 lessons titled 13 Very Famous Friends and How Jesus Loved Them. Once you download the PDF, share it with the parents in your ministry! They can use this resource in the coming weeks to remind kids that Jesus is with them.
Music Playlists
Share these playlists with your staff and families, as it is so important that we continue to encourage our souls throughout the COVID-19 social distancing!
More to Come
As the weeks progress, we will continue to resource you with materials and ideas for your online services and for families at home.
Please let us know which types of resources would help you most by taking this short survey. Your participation will help us as we navigate these times together!
In uncertain times, God is faithful, and He is with us. At David C Cook, we are leaning into that. We are praying that you lean into Him as well.
We are with you,
The Ministry Spark Team
