11 Quick Children’s Messages for Elementary Kids

Use these 11 quick children’s messages for elementary kids at any time of the year!

New Year’s resolutions are great—in theory. But more often than not they just end up getting broken by January 2. What if rather than setting goals about breaking bad habits, we taught kids to shift their focus toward living a God-centered life?
