Jesus walking with us in creation
Twelve monthly units for whole families. Parents stay. Children are never parked. The rhythm is always the same: Welcome, Wonder, Word, Work, Worship.
Weatherford and Azle, Texas · the farm is the classroom
Class rhythm
Welcome
5–8 min
See each person. One wonder question on the way in. “Jesus is glad you are here.”
Wonder
10–15 min
Look, touch, listen. “I wonder…” first. Do not rush to correct an answer.
Word
12–18 min
One to three Scriptures. A real seed, leaf, or water. Jesus with us, showing the Father’s heart.
Work
15–25 min
Hands-on. Families side by side. Some lead, some help, some draw.
Worship / Send
8–12 min
A simple song. Thanks. Blessing. “Jesus goes with you.”
