Blog

Since 1971 the Christian Education Bulletin has been a place where Sunday School teachers, children’s ministers, education ministers, Sunday School directors, student ministers, volunteers, Wednesday night group leaders and others can come together to find ideas, encouragement and community.

Your church being successful in fulfilling the Great Commission is the desire of us at Bogard Press as well. That’s why we created a blog just for you! Just for VBS directors, teachers and leaders to have a space for fresh ideas, updates and encouragement. Our goal is for you to get the most out of your VBS curriculum.

With our Bible Challenge blog, we want to equip Bible Challenge leaders to get the most out of Bible Challenge while they help children and teens connect Scripture with their hearts and lives.

Churches have been opening and closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic for months. Most churches, however, are opening for congregational worship only. Soon we hope churches will be opening for Sunday School as well. Make sure that you are prepared to lead your Sunday School class post COVID with this check list.  

If reaching children through your bus ministry, VBS or other outreach programs, Wednesday night teen meetings, children’s choir or Bible Challenge class is all that your children’s ministry or student ministry is trying to accomplish, then your ministry area and your church is missing out on one of the greatest blessings. Here’s why children’s and student ministries are so much more than reaching children and teens. 

What if teaching children God’s Word were as easy as five easy steps? What if in five easy steps you could help children become life-long followers of Jesus? With Bible Challenge you can! In the non-competition teaching format, teachers use Bible Challenge products to take participants through five easy steps each week to help participants connect God’s Word to their hearts and their lives.

What to do about your Vacation Bible School registration especially if you have chosen to take your VBS off campus and into homes via a virtual VBS or into neighborhoods through week long backyard Vacation Bible School. 

We’ve been doing this whole social distancing discipleship thing for a while now or at least it feels that way. However, there is one hump that we must cross, literature distribution.

So how can you church maintain social distancing and get your Sunday school or small group Bible study literature into the hands of your church members? We have some ideas.

2021 American Baptist Association (ABA), Annual Meeting. Thankful for the great time of fellowship and the wonderful unity we enjoyed at the meeting in Charleston, West Virginia.

When someone surrenders to God’s call they give their life to God for His use and glory. For me, it meant I would be committed to do whatever He called me to do, wherever it would take me.

The Baptist Sunday School Committee of the churches of the American Baptist Association is announcing the fact that our current Editor-in-Chief, Bro. Kyle Elkins, conferred with the committee yesterday during our March online meeting that he would not allow his name to be given in nomination for his position this June during the 2021 messenger meeting in Charleston, WV. 

Come join us as we complete our journey through the book of Genesis, the book of beginnings. During the fall of 2020, we studied the first part of Genesis. In the winter of 2020-2021 quarter, Genesis continues as we see the story of God calling out one man to establish a special nation unto Himself. Genesis started with creation with Adam and Eve but ends in a coffin with the death of Joseph.  What a beautiful picture of Jesus Christ our Messiah who, in this study, is still yet to come to redeem us from our sins.

Merry Christmas!  Christmas is filled with lots of experiences, and this year promises to be filled with new and different experiences.  As children, many of our fondest memories came from Christmas.  As adults, Christmas has become a very busy time and, if we are not careful, we can miss out on the true meaning of Christmas.   

Bible Challenge Series I is available July 1, 2021.

We all have experienced a very difficult and challenging time with the COVID pandemic. Yet, we have much for which to be thankful. We at Bogard Press want you to know that we are thankful for you. I would like to share ten reasons for which we are thankful for you.

With Bible Challenge Series I launching right around the corner (available for order July 1 to be exact), we thought it would be a good idea for us to recap some of the things you might have become familiar with during Bible Challenge Series III.
