Here at last is the comprehensive collection you've been searching for to minister effectively to your children during worship. Drawn from every book of the New Testament, The Giant Book Of Children's Sermons -- Matthew To Revelation contains five full years worth of material you can share with your young disciples. Each of the 260 talks teach children God's Word through the use of common objects that illustrate an important concept in the scriptures. The messages come from Wesley Runk, a pastor and master communicator with kids who has written over 30 best-selling collections of children's sermons and object lessons. Runk uses a warm and often humorous approach to take on even the tough topics of the New Testament -- and the analogies he creates with the use of such simple objects as bananas, clocks, puzzles, and funnels add visual focus for the kids and help them grasp the point on a level suitable for their age. Now, whether you're preaching from the Gospels, Acts, the letters of Paul, the general Epistles, or even Revelation, you are certain to find an appropriate related talk for the children. And with convenient features like scripture and object indexes for quickly locating material as well as a CD with text files that lets you easily adapt the messages to your specific circumstances, The Giant Book Of Children's Sermons may be the last children's collection you ever need! Lessons include: * The Great Picnic (Matthew 14:13-21) * You Are Jesus' Magnifying Glass (John 17:20-26) * How To Settle An Argument (Acts 15:22) * The Key Ring That Unites Us (Romans 6:2b-11) * Do The Dishes? (1 Peter 4:13-19) * Counting Sand (Revelation 5:11-14) ... and many more! Wesley T. Runk is an ordained pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. A graduate of Wittenberg University and Hamma School of Theology, he served congregations in Englewood and Lima, Ohio, before founding CSS Publishing Company.
