In The Beginning - Reptile Hunter Elementary 4 Week Curriculum

This series is meant to teach the kids about some of the key stories from the beginning of the Bible. Our hope is that the kids would walk away knowing that we are called to take care of God’s creation, we can ask God for the forgiveness of our sins, we should be obedient to God by following His instructions, and we can trust God even when it’s hard. Let’s join Greg as he embarks on a new journey of becoming the world’s first Reptile Hunter. Reptile Hunting isn’t actually hunting reptiles...it’s traveling around the world looking for reptiles that are in need of saving and bringing them back to the reptile reserve! As we watch Greg hunt for reptiles, he will unpack the Bible story and application by discussing the connection between the reptiles and the Bible stories.
