The Show Your Story Challenge: a Discipleship Tool for Children's Ministry SPIRITUAL HABIT: Share Your Story AGE GROUP: Elementary This activity is designed to help kids practice the spiritual habit of sharing your story. Because if we want to grow spiritually, we need to make faith a regular, everyday, go-to topic of conversation as we learn to connect our stories with God's story and then share our stories with others. Remember how exciting show-and-tell was as a kid? It wasn't just about showing off a favorite toy-it was a way to share stories about the people, experiences, and memories that meant the most. In The Show Your Story Challenge , kids will take show-and-tell to a whole new level by using objects to share their faith! Each week, kids will receive a prompt that encourages them to think about who God is and what Jesus means to them. Then, they'll bring in an object that represents their story and share why it matters. Through this fun and interactive challenge, kids will develop the habit of talking about their faith and practice expressing what they believe in a way that's meaningful and personal. All our discipleship activities are built to be flexible! You can use this activity in a variety of ways with just a little bit of modification, but here's how we recommend using this one: use this activity during small groups at church all quarter long.
