Sparks

We believe story is the entrance to our children’s hearts and minds. It is in our very name. God’s story, the narrative found in the Bible, is the foundation of all of our work. However, there are other stories that we want to share with you and our children because they also show God at work. Sparks are these additional stories, historical ones based on real life people, to allow children and adults to connect with the great cloud of witnesses that surrounds all of us, as described in Hebrews 11.
