What is church? Why do we go to church? What's the deal with the little pool? Who are all of the people at church? Why do we do the things we do at church? If you've heard any of these questions, this series will be just the thing to kick off your school year and get back to "Sunday School" on the right foot.

“Back to Basics” is a 5-week lesson series that lays a foundation of the doctrine of the church. In these lessons, children will hear a Biblical explanation of why the church does what it does and learn more about various aspects of what makes a church a church – proclaiming the gospel, worshiping, hearing the Bible taught, having Biblical leaders, and observing the ordinances (baptism and the Lord’s Supper). This series is perfect for Sunday School, a midweek discipleship time, or even a special class before children begin to attend the main worship gathering.
