As a busy homeschooling mom of six, finding materials that both align with our Christian beliefs and meet our educational needs can be challenging. My favorite resources are adaptable across a wide range of ages so I can teach multiple children at once—and Ambassador Publication’s Sunday School curriculum is at the top of my list. There is immense comfort in knowing that its content directly supports what I am teaching my kids, not just theologically, but in practical understanding.
“I Believe; Lord, Use Me to Help Others Believe.”– Discernment and Discipleship
The foundational setting for faith strengthening and making disciples is everyday life in our families. An informal setting does not mean unintentional teaching. Wherever we are, whatever we are doing, make disciples. Teach, train and equip. While planting a tree, we can talk about the one true God, the Creator of the heavens and the earth and all that is in them, and the sustainer of life.
“I Believe. Lord, Use Me to Help Others Believe.”— Always Be Ready
“But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.” (1 Peter 3:15 NASB)

Jesus in the Neighborhood
Nearly fifteen years ago, the dream of reaching out to serve families in the neighborhood of St. Paul’s Free Lutheran in Fargo, North Dakota, became a reality. After much prayer and planning, and with help in training from CRU (Campus Crusade) and their S.A.Y. Yes! Centers, our congregation started an after-school program.
Laying a Biblical Foundation
Our Spring ’26 newsletter features articles on building a biblical foundation—for the home (Jaclyn Czymbor), and for a church library (Pastor Erin Tormanen). What questions should we ask and what practices should we develop to lay this foundation?
A Biblical Foundation for the Home
“Tell me a story from when you were a little girl?” I knew the question was coming, as it did every night when I tucked my son into bed. I was running out of stories, but he didn’t care if he’d heard the same one before. He loved hearing about how I grew up, and he never grew tired or bored with hearing the same stories. He desired to know me more deeply.
Prayer Partners in Christian Education
When we plan and prepare for Sunday School—be it for adults, high school youth, or children—we know the first step is prayer. It is foundational for all curriculum choices, programs, and activities.

Presents with Presence
“My favorite part of the Christmas program is afterwards, when we get to open gifts!” Her eyes danced with anticipation, though our program was still weeks away. At first, I was a little disappointed. Why wasn’t the child more excited about the songs and the message of Jesus in the program we had been practicing week after week? And
The Barber Who Wanted to Pray
“The family that prays together stays together.” “Prayer changes things.” These are prayer truths we decorate our homes with, prayer truths we occasionally quote for Christian encouragement.
