These dinosaurs are having a party! The velociraptors, however, were not invited. You might think that is mean, but they are bullies and have been giving me nightmares since I first saw Jurassic Park in 1993. Consider this payback.

In this children's message, students will be invited to consider what it means that Jesus Christ calls Himself the bread of life. He gives us all we need for spiritual nourishment, just as food gives us what we need for physical strength. Use bread and/or dough to explain what it means that Christ provides and IS our "daily bread"!

What if everything about the future of school was the opposite of school? We invited Eli Horowitz and Scott Teplin to consider the school…
First a Boeing 747, and now an industrial complex on a Vancover island; it seems no canvas is too large for Brazilian graffiti artists Os Gemeos who were invited to the Vancouver Biennale to turn six multi-story silos on Granville Island into their trademark ‘Giants.’ The murals on the 70-foot towers are now the largest paintings ever attempted by the pair, an astounding feat considering Os Gemeos completely donated a month of their time to create the non-profit art project.

Photo Source: www.gettingmessywithmsjessi.com If you're planning an "All About Me" unit to kick off the school year, you might consider including this fun fingerprinting activity shared by Jessi Feltmann over at Getting Messy With Ms. Jessi! {We just love how she has chosen to include both 'friendship' and 'family life' in the unit topics! Yes, Jessi - we heartily agree that these make a person too!} To start the activity, students are invited to trace their hands onto a piece of paper, then use the provided ink pads to add a print of each finger. [NOTE: This is a great sensory activity too! We know your preschoolers are sure to love the squishy feel of the washable ink pad and the tickle of the pencil as it traces their hands!] After each child has had the chance to wash up, have them observe their newly created prints. Pull up some pictures of fingerprint whirls, loops, and arches, provide your kiddos with magnifying glasses, and invite them to check out the unique shape of their prints {and those of their classmates!}. A simple science exercise and a fun way to remind your students that they're all a unique part of the class! For this and several other activities in Jessi's "All About Me" unit, be sure to visit Getting Messy With Ms. Jessi!

When experiencing emotional overwhelm, it can be difficult to think logically, and effectively deal with conflict. The DBT THINK skill is an interpersonal effectiveness skill that focuses on conflict resolution by putting yourself in someone else’s shoes and being kind and empathetic. The DBT THINK Skill Worksheet includes two worksheet activities that give clients opportunities to reflect on their use of the THINK skills by answering questions. They are invited to recall specific goals they’ve set for an interaction, think about what they could have done differently, and brainstorm coping skills to stay calm in the moment. Answering these worksheets encourages kids and teens to approach conflict calmly and reduces their impulsivity. Caring adults can offer additional support and clarification while their child completes the activity. Our DBT Think Skill handout is a helpful add-on summarizing each of the five think skills. *This item is an instant digital download.

Too often the Christian attitude toward suffering is characterized by a detached academic appeal to God's sovereignty, as if suffering were a game or a math problem. Or maybe we expect that since God is good, everything will just work out all right somehow. But where then is honest lament? Aren't we shortchanging believers of the riches of the Christian teaching about suffering? In Embodied Hope Kelly Kapic invites us to consider the example of our Lord Jesus. Only because Jesus has taken on our embodied existence, suffered alongside us, died, and been raised again can we find any hope from the depths of our own dark valleys of pain. As we look to Jesus, we are invited to participate not only in his sufferings, but also in the church, which calls us out of isolation and into the encouragement and consolation of the communal life of Christ. Drawing on his own family's experience with prolonged physical pain, Kapic reshapes our understanding of suffering into the image of Jesus, and brings us to a renewed understanding of—and participation in—our embodied hope.
