God's Big Story Cards

Picture
A set of God's Big Story cards offers a fun way to help kids, families and congregations have faith conversations.

Each of the 165 cards in this boxed set provides easy-to-do, interactive, and fun ways to form faith as you learn about God’s story together. After selecting a card, read the Bible story and then choose one of six ways to explore the story together: Retell, Wonder, Praise, Pray, Share, Respond.

God's Big Story cards are designed to go hand in hand with DWELL and DWELL Flex. Here are some ways to use them:

Churches using DWELL Flex multi-age curriculum will need a set for each leader so they can refer to the specific card used in the “Respond” step of each session.

Churches that use the DWELL children’s graded curriculum will love the way that the God’s Big Story cards line up with all of the stories that are shared in the Imagine, Wonder, and Marvel levels (K-5).

Overall, a great way for a ministry to equip families alongside the DWELL curriculum is to provide each household with a set of the God's Big Story cards. Each set contains enough cards to carry them throughout their child's years of participation in the sessions and can be cycled through again and again! Purchasing one per household unites the congregation with a common reference and a fun devotional tool. And you can introduce God's Big Story cards to the families at your church with this free God's Big Story Cards Family Event.

Talk with your church leaders about providing a box for each DWELL family to strengthen church/home connections (bulk pricing is available). Available from Faith Alive Christian Resources, God’s Big Story cards are great for homeschoolers, Christian day schools, and families whose churches use other curricula too.

Endorsement

"God's Big Story cards are 165 cards that go through the Bible step by step in ways that allow children and families to engage the story in personal ways. This resource is ecumenical in that it doesn't push any particular theological perspective, but encourages children to make their own connections, to ask wondering questions, and to live into God's story. It's simple and fun yet it can help children, small groups, and families dig deeper into God's story and help make it their story. Great for young families, small groups of children, Sunday school classes, children's liturgy groups, and more! Whether you're using Dwell curriculum or not, this is a fantastic tool for families, kids, and junior high students."
