This Month's Biblical Theme: The Early Church
Unit OverviewAs Jesus ascends into heaven, the disciples are left with the promise of the Holy Spirit and with specific instructions. The Holy Spirit is sent and received, as the disciples can suddenly speak different languages. People are confused by this power of God. Yet, the disciples are able to show how mighty God is as they share what God has done for them. This marks the beginning of the early church as thousands repent and decide to follow God.

This month’s Biblical theme: Paul’s Missionary Journeys
Unit OverviewAfter meeting Jesus, Paul was completely transformed. He went from hating Christians to preaching the Gospel wherever he went. He would be beaten, imprisoned and sent to stand trial in Rome. Paul was God’s messenger to the gentile, or non-Jewish, world. God used him to perform miracles and show His great power. No matter what, Paul would say that it was Christ working through him to spread the Gospel.
This month’s Biblical theme is: The Epistles
Unit OverviewMuch of the New Testament is comprised of Epistles, or letters that were written to the early church. These churches were spread all around the mediterranean. The Epistles are authored by James, Paul, Peter, Jude and John. They were written to give encouragement, direction and doctrine to the early church. There was a lot of confusion within the new churches about what they should be following. Jesus had only just died, risen and gone to heaven. Paul and John wrote to clarify how God loves unconditionally and calls us to do the same. We should look to Jesus to see the greatest example of love and humility!

Unit OverviewThis month, we are learning all about the unwavering goodness of God. In the creation story, God crafted a perfect world and formed a special relationship with humans. Despite humanity’s sins, as seen in Cain and Abel’s story, God’s protection and love endure. God’s goodness shines through in Noah’s rescue from the flood and in God fulfilling His promise to Abraham and Sarah, bringing unexpected joy. Through these stories, God’s consistent goodness, faithfulness and love for humanity are evident, emphasizing His enduring care and blessings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Brite is created for your entire Children’s Ministry—infants through elementary. Brite Preschool and Brite Elementary can each stand alone, but they are designed to work together in harmony. While we encourage you to use Brite for all age groups, you can purchase Preschool and Elementary separately.
Brite has an aligned Scope & Sequence so all kids are learning the same stories and Biblical truths but with age-appropriate teaching, discussion questions, and activities.
Brite Preschool includes age-appropriate lessons and materials for all of early childhood—infants through Pre-K. The lessons are divided into four age groupings—babies (approx. ages 0-1), toddlers (approx. ages 1-2), younger preschoolers (approx. ages 2-3), and older preschoolers (approx. ages 3-5).

Since preschool and elementary are separate purchases, only calculate how many kids you have in each specific age group. For example, if you have 200 kids in your ministry, but only 50 are preschoolers, you will purchase the preschool curriculum for 25-50 kids.
