Description

Teach an unforgettable, hands-on lesson this fall with the “Shine Like a Jack-o’-Lantern!” complete children’s sermon pack. This lesson provides everything you need to guide children through a powerful and fun analogy: just like we clean the “gunk” out of a pumpkin to put a light inside, God cleans the “gunk” (sin and selfishness) from our hearts and fills us with His light so we can shine for Him.
