Give Your Worries To God!
All of us, kids and adults, have fears and anxieties. Some of our fears are irrational, but some seem completely justified. Whatever our fears, God commands us “do not be afraid” and to put our trust in Him.

Fear Not Children's Ministry Curriculum Lesson Overview
Memory Verse:
“Turn all your worries over to him. He cares about you.” 1 Peter 5:7
Lessons:
You're Not Alone
Lesson: We often worry that we are on our own, or that others will leave us. But God assures us that he will never leave us.
Scripture: 1 Kings 19:3-18, The Lord Appears to Elijah
Objective: Kids will learn, “with God, I am never alone”.
Afraid Of The Dark
Darkness can make everything seem scarier. And it’s not always just physical darkness. The fear of the unknown, the fear of the future can often feel overwhelming. But God reminds us that Jesus is the light that shines in the darkness. When we bring our fears to God and trust Him to light our path, He shows us there is nothing to fear.
Scripture: John 1:1-14, The Word Became Flesh
Objective: Kids will learn that when we trust God, we don’t have to fear the unknown.
Scary News
In our broken world we are often confronted with bad news. Hearing bad news can be scary. Sometimes, worrying that we are going to hear bad news can be just as scary. But the Bible reminds us that God is with us and has promised to lead us to good places where we can find rest and comfort.
Scripture: Psalm 23, The Lord is My Shepherd
Objective: Kids will learn, “if I put my trust in God, I don’t have to be afraid of bad news, because God is with me always.”
Fear Not
We might have a whole list of fears and worries. But God tells us that if we have put our hope in Him, we have nothing to worry about. We can trust that God loves us and cares for us and so we don’t have to be afraid.
Scripture: Matthew 6:25-34, Do Not Worry, 1 John 4:18 Perfect Love Drives Out Fear
Objective: Kids will learn that we can always call out to God in prayer anytime we are afraid.

-
Memory Verse - so that you can make sure kids are getting Scripture in their minds and hearts every single week and you can feel like each lesson was a success even when it seems like 90% of your lesson time is spent saying things like "calm down", "let's be quiet", "hands to yourself!"
-
Skit or Puppet Show - so you have a way to easily connect the lesson with your hands-on and visual learners. No drama team? No problem! Just hand the script to the kids. They'll have a blast and think you're the coolest.
-
Craft Activity - so you can give kids a physical reminder of the Bible lesson (and give yourself an activity to keep them busy until mom and dad come back!)

Small-Group Discussion - so you can find out who was paying attention and who was talking to their neighbor. Just kidding, this is a great way for you to build deeper relationships with your kiddos after each lesson, which means you're going to care about them so much you'll cry like a baby when they graduate and go to middle school :(
- More! - Yes, there is even more than all of that so that you can easily put together the perfect lesson for your ministry each weekend, which means no more agonizing over how to adjust complicated lesson plans.
