​
Our goal in KidZone is to partner with you at home, because parents are the primary spiritual influencer in kids' lives. One way we will partner with you is by encouraging and rewarding kids to complete devotions at home. Each week we will produce KZ Bible Studies pages that connect to our lessons in KZ. The kids will be encouraged to read 4 passages of scripture and respond to four questions:
​
1. What is the BIG Idea?
2. What does it teach me about God?
3. What does God want me to do?
4. Do I have any questions?
These pages are a a practical way to encourage our kids to develop devotion times with God by reading Scriptures, pausing to reflect and applying it to their lives. For a fun introduction to KZ Bible Studies, watch this KZOnline video together with your child!
