Mirror, Mirror: Stinkin' Thinkin'TM

Rather: think about what is noble, right, and pure.

When I was about 7 years old, I remember being in the bathroom at school and feeling very sad. I recall looking in the mirror and saying, "No one loves me; no one except Jesus." I felt very alone.

I don't remember why I felt so sad. Maybe my parents had been arguing, or maybe I was in trouble. What I told myself was half-true. I was right that Jesus loved me! But I was wrong in thinking no one loved me; my mom and dad did love me.

That sad day happened over 50 years ago, yet I still remember it. This is why I'm telling it to you.

Bible Memory Technique: Up and Moving

Get your kids up and out of their chairs and moving around with this Bible Memory Technique! Create actions with matching poses that affect the way children recite Scripture. For example, have kids squat down, making themselves as small as possible, then say the Scripture verse in the tiniest whisper, or take giant exaggerated steps and repeat the words in a loud voice with each step.

Review: Thank you for this wonderful tool for teaching the 10 Commandments, with hand motions. This method has been so successful over the years, the older graduates remind me that they still remember their Ten Commandments! To God be all glory!

Review: "I was intrigued with the Amazing Parable Race description [and purchased it]. It allows me to add another resource to my "bag of tricks" for very little additional cost . . . huge plus! I have many of your resources and appreciate the quality of the materials you provide. For a broadly graded class, I find I can easily reach the youngest and the oldest (K-5th grade) children. Thank you!" ~ Lauren F.
