No-Miss Lessons for Preteen Kids

We can reach our nation for God with an army of small group leaders like you who have a vision for doubling their class every two years or less. We can reach our nation for Christ. We can reach America with an army of small group leaders like you who have a vision for doubling their classes every two years or less. We can do it. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. We can be obedient to what God told us to do. I want to do that, don’t you? Think of it. There are approximately 320,000 churches in America. Each one has approximately 75 in attendance and about 7 Sunday school classes. That means there are approximately 24 million people attending church on any given weekend and a little over 2 million Sunday school teachers. Suppose half, or a fourth, or even a tenth of the Sunday school teachers in America committed to doubling their class ten times in the next 20 years. Suppose, like Gideon’s army, we had only 25,000 teachers from various denominations and churches on board. If each one doubled every two years or less, we would reach America in a little past 20 years.
