3

God promises He will use it

“For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,And do not return there, but water the earth,And make it bring forth and bud,That it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;

It shall not return to Me void,But it shall accomplish what I please,And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

Therefore, we want to get…

as deep into the hearts as we can

as much of God’s Word as we can

of as many

children as we can

Much Deep Many

Ways Kids Will Benefit

When Scripture is in their hearts…

11 It will keep them from sin.

22 It will equip them to witness.

33 It will comfort them in a crisis

Introducing C2X ’06…

A national initiative… to encourage Awana children and youth to increase the amount of Scripture memorized; to lengthen the retention of that Scripture, and to strengthen obedience to it.

Page 13: C 2 X 2006. PowerUP Special NIV H h b o s i h b o t t s t w m d t s a l f r b h w y h b h KJV W h o s b o s i h o b o t t t w b d t s s l u r b w s y.

PowerUP

What will we try to do?

The object: More Scripture…

Learn more verses More deeply…in

Increase retention More hearts.

Emphasize application

How will we measure it?

The easy measure:

More Awana books completed

More children with a Biblical worldview

Vital Signs

Are general indicators of health; Like blood pressure and

pulse, vital signs of an Awana Club give us a general idea of its health

Vital Signs

…of an Awana club: Attendance Handbook completion An Awana club that has both

healthy attendance and a healthy handbook completion percentage is likely a healthy club.
