Summary

Anna and Matt kick off a special VBS mini-series all about the Bible—God’s true word! They’re joined by Lindsey the Historian Librarian, who helps explain how the Bible isn’t just one book—it’s 66 books that all tell one big story: God’s rescue plan for the world. Together, they talk about how the Bible is organized, what it’s for, and how every part points us to Jesus. What You’ll Learn: 📖 The Bible is made up of 66 books that all tell one big story. 📚 It’s split into two parts: the Old Testament and the New Testament. 📝 The books are different genres—like history, poetry, and letters. 🌍 The whole Bible tells the story of God’s big rescue plan: creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. 💡 2 Timothy 3:16–17 tells us the Bible helps us live the way God wants us to. Try This at Home: ✅ Read Genesis 1 together as a family to see where the story begins. ✅ Memorize 2 Timothy 3:16–17 and talk about what it means. ✅ See if you can find examples of different genres in your Bible—like poems in Psalms or stories in the Gospels. ✅ Listen to the song we made about 2 Timothy 3:16-17 Looking for a fun way to teach your kids the Gospel?
