When people say “let’s face it,” what they mean is “let’s be painfully honest.” During the “Let’s Face It” series, we’re going to be “painfully honest” about how sin affects us, but we’ll also be honest about the power that Jesus has to forgive us and change our lives. And here’s the really fun part— during “Let’s Face It,” we’ll be taking the expression a bit more literally. Kids will get to use their artistic talents to create and wear fun masks for the telling of the Big Bible Story.

GO! is a chronological children’s ministry curriculum (for preschool and elementary) that immerses kids in biblical storytelling and helps them see how individual stories fit into the big story of God.
Each GO! unit is part of a 12-month scope and sequence that takes kids on a chronological journey through the Bible. The scope and sequence is designed to follow the Christian calendar so that the Christmas lessons land on Christmas and the Easter lessons land on Easter. The “Recommended Use Dates” indicate where the unit falls within the one-year curriculum calendar. You are able to use the unit at any time of the year that works best for you, but by following the “Recommended Use Dates,” you can easily transition into using the other GO! units to tell the remainder of the Big Bible Story.

• Each 4‑5 week block uses a different storytelling method (themes, props, games) to keep things fresh and engaging.
• It’s designed to be interactive, fun, and transformational — kids participate in telling the story, not just passively receiving it.

Each lesson includes:
• Leader preparation / training content

No problem!! GO! is built to support volunteers: training content, video options, and customizable lessons help reduce the burden. Our curriculum provides clear, comprehensive scripts that guide leaders step-by-step, so they know exactly what to say and do when leading small group activities or teaching large group Bible lessons. The teaching videos can further fill in gaps with video-led segments.
Great question! Preschoolers and elementary kids both learn best when teaching is designed specifically for their age, attention span, and developmental stage. That’s why GO! uses the same overall scope and sequence for both age groups, but does not match the weekly lessons exactly.
Here’s what that means:
Bottom line:
Preschool and elementary follow the same big Bible storyline, but at the pace and depth that helps each age group thrive. This gives every child the best chance to understand, remember, and grow in their faith.
Absolutely! You can view the full scope and sequence of the year, detailing each Bible story, Big Idea, and memory verse for both Preschool and Elementary, on our “Scope & Sequence” page. Click here.
