Kids 4 Truth International - Executive Summary

What is Kids 4 Truth International?
Kids 4 Truth International is a non-profit organization that exists to inspire and equip local churches, families, and other ministry-minded individuals and entities to passionately reach boys and girls worldwide through the memorable, creative, leading-edge teaching of God-focused truth.

How will Kids 4 Truth International accomplish its stated mission?
Kids 4 Truth International produces and hosts an award-winning, cutting-edge website (www.kids4truth.com) that has been online since May, 2000. This website receives about one million hits every month from around the globe. This website is designed to teach truth to everyone, but especially to K-6th grade boys and girls. We have several translators in place, and certain components of our website have already been translated into twelve different languages.

In the near future, this website will serve as a hub for teacher training and practical teacher tools. We want to inspire people to teach children the truth, but we also want to practically equip them to do so. The website itself serves as a stand-alone entity to creatively communicate the most important truths about God, but we know that ultimately the most effective reaching and teaching must be done by real people - life reaching life. We want to inspire and equip lives to memorably infuse essential Bible truth into young hearts and minds.

For this reason we desire to establish Kids 4 Truth Clubs in local churches worldwide. These clubs will consist of the Kids 4 Truth Program and Curriculum, which are both currently in development. These clubs are designed to be high-energy and God-focused with an emphasis on learning and knowing doctrinal truth. The boys and girls that enroll in the Kids 4 Truth clubs as small children will learn 120 of the most important truths of authentic Christian faith before they finish the 6^th grade.

We plan to have both the Curriculum and Program done and marketable by Summer 2005. Several churches plan to use this curriculum, and even now the program and curriculum are being used experimentally in some churches. The Kids 4 Truth Curriculum will utilize the World Wide Web in order to enhance learning and understanding by involving children in interactive learning experiences that motivate, stimulate, and educate.

We are striving to create a Program and Curriculum that will set a standard in Christendom for two ultimate essentials:

• What children are taught
• How children are taught
