Sundays can be simple and meaningful.

  • Bullseye Icon
    Simple means focused leaders.

    You wear many hats, but “theater producer” doesn’t need to be one of them. You have one job: to help kids love God and love one another. Simply Loved keeps you laser-focused on the hearts of your kids.

  • Thumbs Up Icon
    Simple means rewarded volunteers.

    Volunteers love raising their hands for low-prep lessons and easy supply lists. Glanceable lesson plans help them stay eye-to-eye with kids and witness the aha moments that come with creative, Bible-rich activities.

  • Light Bulb Icon
    Simple means captivated kids.

    Why are we fascinated by candle flames and flower petals? Kids experience the same level of wonder when miraculous concepts come to life and clearly point to the love of Jesus.

How Does Simply Loved Keep Sundays Simple?

No matter your age, Bible Memory Buddies make learning stick!

Your best buddies from Group VBS are joining Sunday school!

It’s a proven brainy thing that kids are conditioned to remember fun facts and crazy connections to characters they know and love.

SO when kids meet Savanna the giraffe, they remember that just like Savanna’s long neck, all God’s people should understand how wide, how long, how high, and how deep God’s love is.
