How it works

Every Connect lesson follows a three-part sequence: See, Explore, and Make. Each week, tweens focus on and reinforce a theme by watching a witty video, exploring biblical text, and creating projects that range from games to art and more. Connect materials are available by unit or single lesson.

Why choose Connect?

Bible-centered approach

Connect explores the themes found throughout the Bible’s greatest stories and encourages preteens to see the narrative arc of the Bible—from Creation to New Creation.

Age-appropriate text

The Connect Bible helps tweens explore God’s word with lively graphics, colorful maps, historical timelines, and more.

It’s not little kid Sunday School

Resources used in the Connect curriculum are developed just for tweens—blending solid theology with quirky humor.

Engaging videos

Each lesson begins with a video that blends witty, slap-stick humor with solid theology, in a way that’s accessible to preteens.

Foundation for faith

Connect grows with preteens, helping them make sense of the Bible, and encouraging them to ask questions, make connections, and reflect.

Leaders don’t need to be Bible experts

Or comedians. Resources are designed so that leaders can feel prepared to facilitate, and know they’ll be successful with this age group.
