DWELL Year 1 K-1/Imagine Unit 1 Leader's Guide [Imagine Being Part of God's Family]

Why use DWELL Leader's Guides?
Help young learners step off the fast track of daily life and dive deep into God’s big story with Dwell: Imagine Leader's Guides. Designed specifically for Kindergarten and 1st-grade Sunday school classes, this comprehensive curriculum guide shifts the focus from noisy, fast-paced lessons to meaningful, faith-formative moments.

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

• 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 "Reflections" devotionals in every lesson to enrich your own spiritual walk, provide historical context, and offer practical teaching tips before you step into the classroom.
• Engaging "Wondering" Questions: Encourage open-ended curiosity and deep faith reflection with lesson specific questions designed to help children imagine themselves within Scripture.
• Seamless Church-to-Home Connection: Integrates visual Story Symbols and connects directly with God's Big Story family cards so parents can reinforce Sunday learning throughout the week.
• Music & Scripture Memory: Fully compatible with DwellSongs music that pair memory verses and thematic praise songs to aid retention.

Dwell leader guides help provide a contemplative, slower-paced children's ministry experience where kids can "press pause" on daily fast-paced living, wonder about God's Word, and enter directly into the biblical story.
