DWELL Year 1 2-3/Wonder Unit 2 Leader's Guide [Wonder About God's Daring Mission]

Why use DWELL Leader's Guides?
Help young learners dive deep into God’s Big Story with Dwell: Wonder Leader's Guides. Designed specifically for 2nd- and 3rd-grade Sunday school classes, this comprehensive curriculum guide for the Wonder level encourages kids to ask their favorite “why” and “how” questions as they engage God’s Big Story, experiencing a sense of wonder and awe at the greatness and love of our God. The fun and interactive lessons explore how this age group can live into and out of that story.

Every leader guide features clear theological guidance, faith modeling tips, and personal leader devotionals to give you complete confidence in presenting a rich, God-centered message to the children in your ministry.

• Grounded in Reformed Theology: Every session is crafted from a God-centered perspective, helping leaders to teach children that the Bible is a single, unfolding story of God’s redemptive love through Jesus Christ.
• Equips Leaders as Learners: Each guide includes built-in "Leader Reflection" devotionals in every lesson to enrich your own spiritual walk, provide historical context, and offer practical teaching tips.
• Engaging "Wondering" Questions: The leader guide encourages open-ended curiosity and deep faith reflection with lesson specific questions designed to help children imagine themselves within Scripture.
• Seamless Church-to-Home Connection: Connects the visual aids of God's Big Story cards and integrates the lessons directly with Show and Share pages that allow kids to share/explore the story they heard on Sunday with their families throughout the week.
• Music & Scripture Memory: Fully compatible with DwellSongs music that pair memory verses and thematic praise songs to help kids learn.

Dwell leader guides help provide a contemplative children's ministry experience where kids can imagine, wonder, and marvel about God's Word, and enter directly into the biblical story.
