New Kid’s Reward Program “My Bible Bucks Store”

Posted on by

I believe that God is a rewarder and when I grow up I want to be just like Him. That’s why we have started a new rewards program for elementary students, “My Bible Bucks Store”. They can earn points to spend on various rewards.

All the “bucks” or points are recorded on a computer database so they can never be lost or stolen. (Yes we know that its ridiculous to think that things could be stolen from church, but it happens.) We will eventually issue cards that they need to show to spend their “bucks”. They will earn points on Sundays, Wednesdays and any special services.

Here are some of the ways to earn points:

+1 Attendance
+5 Brought 1st time friend
+1 Brought 2nd time friend
+1 Brought 3rd time friend
+1 Brought Bible
+1 Exceptional behavior
+1 Special Question Answered
+1 Verse Memorization
+1 Phrase Memorization
+20 CTWG Completion
+10 Monthly Reading Completion
+10 Special Memorization
+100 March 2012 “Friend-A-Thon”

Here are some of the ways they can spend their bucks:

Candy
Toys of various sizes
Bikes (with lots of saving)
Nintendo Wii (saving… of course)
Xbox 360 (and more saving)
Mission’s giving (donate the proceeds of your savings to mission’s projects)

 

You can get involved with our store by donating funds or toy items. You can also volunteer to help stock and run the store on a once a month basis. Shoot me an email to find out how.

Dad’s Book Giveaway – “Turning Your Child’s Failures Into Success”

Posted on by

In honor of Father’s Day we are giving away two copies of Jim Wideman‘s book “Turning Your Child’s Failures Into Success”. Jim is a person who I consider to be one of the greatest voices to parents and this next generation. He is also a personal mentor of mine. This is one of my favorite books on parenting because it is to the point and practical.

“Turning Your Child’s Failures Into Success is the next installment of life lessons from Children’s Ministry Pioneer Jim Wideman. This easy to read, simple to understand book gives any parent practical wisdom that they can immediately apply. In this book, Wideman tackles one of the most important aspects to failure that all parents should know: Your failures do not keep you from success; how you choose to deal with those failures determines if you’re successful or not.
When you realize that the mistakes you make do not keep you from accomplishing your God-given purpose, then how you handle each mistake will be greatly altered. When we understand that failure is not what keeps a person from succeeding, then failure simply becomes a launching pad for success. Drawing both on his experiences as a Pastor and a father of two successful daughters, Wideman helps parents learn how to fail forward, so they can properly train their children to do the same. No matter if your kids are toddlers, elementary age, or even in high school, this book is for you. It’s never too late to begin modeling the right way to fail in front of your children and help turn their failures and short comings into success.”

Here’s how to win:

  • Be a dad who is an attendee at any of the Life Christian Church Campuses : Troy, Howell, or New Baltimore. (You can be a father of any age child or teen.)
  • Comment on this post in the comment section below on what challenges you face as a father.
  • Or if you think your dad should win, comment on why he is the best dad in the world.
  • We will pick and announce two winners based on the comments on Saturday June 18th. We will contact you on how to get the book into your hands.

 

Don’t worry ladies, you can read the book too. We will have many more giveaways like this in the future. You can order your own copy here. Its on sale for $4.99.
