God’s Kind of People: Seen by God

Book Description:

Every kid wonders if they matter. This curriculum answers that question through story.

Children today face constant pressure to perform, measure up, and prove their worth. God’s Kind of People: Seen by God pushes back on all of that — gently, truthfully, and through the most powerful teaching tool we have: story.

Across thirteen sessions, kids journey through Scripture and church history, meeting people God chose and used in surprising ways. These aren’t polished heroes who had it all together. They’re the overlooked, the unlikely, the ones who failed and doubted and started over. David left in the fields while his brothers stood before Samuel. The Samaritan woman alone at the well. Peter, who denied Jesus three times. Harriet Tubman, who heard God’s voice in the dark and led hundreds to freedom. Each one was seen by God first — and formed by God over time.

What’s included in each session:

• A narrative story read-aloud written for each character
• Opening icebreaker and group game
• Creative response activity
• Faith Talk discussion questions for grades K-8
• Scripture memory verse
• Closing prayer guide
• Family Connection take-home handout

Designed for volunteer leaders. Every session is fully written and ready to lead. No extensive prep required. Whether you’re a seasoned children’s ministry director or a first-time volunteer, everything you need is right here.

Works for midweek programs, Sunday formation classes, and small group ministry serving kindergarten through eighth grade in a single-room setting.

Seen by God is Volume 1 in the God’s Kind of People series — a four-volume children’s curriculum exploring identity, mission, character, and perseverance through the stories of people who walked with God.

13+ sessions. 199 pages. Ready to use this week.
