This page contains a list of blog posts related to teaching the Bible as well as past sermons from Joy’s dad, Jake Redekopp. (They are posted here with his permission.) The sermons are GOOD to listen to even with younger children. Dad wasn’t a pastor but he did teach adult Sunday School for a very long time, spent many years in children’s ministry, and later was involved with seniors’ ministry teaching Bible studies. (Much of his time is currently needed with other things.) We hope you will enjoy listening to these!
Eventually, like our former website, we plan to also post free samples of DWE artwork (which are available for sale here) . There are also plans to post some other pdfs such as Bible Memory Verse charts.
This way, hopefully it will make things easy for people who are looking specifically for these things.
