Encourage kids and parents
to
know Christ and explore
their own
God given creative abilities!
Creativity
can come in many forms
such as art, music,
gardening, dancing, writing, baking,
cooking, singing,
building, designing and so much more!
Studying the Word of God
helps us to know Him more and draw closer to Him, who
loves and saves us.
Adding a little Art into our studying draws us closer to the
Creator who made us!
All of our Bible lessons and studies are designed to help you dig deeper in His Word while the Art lets you dig a little deeper into your
God given creativity.
You will find Art mixed into our Bible lessons in the
form of coloring pages, visuals, activities and of course Art lessons.
Why Bible and Art
goal is to teach Art using the Bible and Bible using Art!
We create Bible studies and lessons that
remind heARTs of who God is.
After all, the very first thing we learn from Genesis 1 is, “God created.”
Later in the same chapter we know He made man in
His own image.
Perhaps, part of that “image of God” includes the
ability to be creative.

Teaching our children
what the Bible says about how to
treat others
is a crucial part of
Christian parenting
It is important that we model and
instill biblical principles
that show our children
The Way
God commands us to treat each other.
And while we will still mess up along the way,
God’s grace is sufficient for the times we find
ourselves
falling short of His Word
One of the most amazing things about raising and influencing
our children is that we have
the honor of pointing them straight to Jesus.
I am grateful for the gift of the
Holy Spirit
inside of us showing us how to be
children of light
and
convicting us when we miss the mark.
This gift has made raising our children easier as we have
confidence in His leading.
What Does the Bible Say About How to Treat Others?
Let’s take a look at the Word of God to see what truths we can discover.
Love in Deed and Truth
Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in
deed and in truth.
1 John 3:18 (NIV)
This verse teaches us that we should be training our children to understand that love is not just a word; love is an action.
Teaching our children about the act of unconditional love
that Jesus showed on Calvary
helps them understand who He is in their lives.
We have found this to have a profound impact
raising our children into adulthood.
Our adult daughter recently told us that living with this
core value in our home helped her to be
sure of her faith.
Be Kind, Compassionate, and Forgiving
Be kind and compassionate to one another,
forgiving each other,
just as in Christ God forgave you.
Ephesians 4:32
This verse is a wonderful reminder that
we are to treat others the same way that
Jesus treats us.
He is always kind and compassionate toward us,
even in our sin.
His sacrifice on the cross sealed the forgiveness of our sin.
Jesus modeled
kindness, compassion, and forgiveness
for all mankind to follow.
And as His children, we should commit to doing the same.
Be Humble and Gentle
Be completely humble and gentle;
be patient, bearing with one another in love.
Ephesians 4:2
Jesus is the epitome of humility.
He showed humility
in so many circumstances where the average person
would struggle.
From being accused of crimes He did not commit
to being accused of blasphemy.
Jesus remained humble and gentle,
giving us the blueprint for how we should treat others.
Build One Another Up
Therefore encourage one another and build
one another up, just as you are doing.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
As children of God it is important that we
build up our brothers and sisters
through the way we speak to them and
treat them.
When we speak life-giving words
to those around us it gives
God the ability to perform
His Word
in and around us. And when we treat others kindly
it shows them the love of Christ,
building them up when they are in need of
love and encouragement.
Treat Others
The Way You Want to Be Treated
Do to others as you would
have them do to you.
Luke 6:31
When in doubt, teach your children to never forget that
God wants them to
treat others the way they want to be treated.
This is especially helpful when children are young as
they are more self-centered
as they learn the way the world around them works.
By teaching this early on, it helps kids develop the habit
of weighing their actions toward others by this truth.
While there are many verses and stories in the
Bible that teach us how to
treat others,
the verses above have been a blessing to our family.
God’s Word is a treasure that contains all the answers we seek
(and more).
When you are dealing with issues in
parenting your children,
always take time to pull out your Bible and see what
God has to say
about the topic; you won’t be disappointed.
Not only that,
He will give you the
wisdom and grace
you need to model the
truth of
His Word in love.
