CALVARY CHAPEL CHILDREN'S MINISTRY TRAINING CLASS
NOTE: ITEM IS SEALED BUT CASE HAS A CRACK IN IT.
The Children's Ministry Training Class offered by Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa is an extensive, carefully designed program intended to equip volunteers and leaders with the essential skills and knowledge needed to effectively minister to children. This 8-week training course combines both theoretical instruction and practical application to prepare participants to engage with children in meaningful and spiritually enriching ways.
Course Structure and Format
The training consists of 8 sessions, each lasting approximately 2 hours, which are available in both audio and video formats to cater to different learning preferences. These classes allow participants to not only learn foundational concepts but also observe real-life teaching methods through classroom-style demonstrations.
Comprehensive Training Materials
To support the sessions, the course provides a 52-page training manual that serves as a thorough guide for leaders. This manual includes practical tips, lesson planning techniques, and key faith-based principles tailored to children's spiritual growth. In addition, teacher demonstrations showcase effective classroom examples for various age groups, including Kindergarten, Grade 1, and Grade 3, illustrating best practices for managing and teaching different developmental stages.
Scripture Memorization and Storytelling Curriculum
A critical component of the training focuses on Scripture memorization and storytelling, as these are foundational tools for nurturing children's faith. The curriculum offers a wide range of resources:
325 Children’s Bible Studies spanning both the Old and New Testaments, which are organized by grade levels to ensure age-appropriate content and comprehension.
Materials specifically divided for Grades 1-2 and Grades 3 and above, allowing leaders to tailor lessons according to the children's cognitive levels.
Engaging activities such as memory verses, fill-in-the-blank exercises, true or false questions, and multiple-choice quizzes that reinforce biblical concepts in fun and interactive ways.
Interactive Learning Tools
To further engage children and complement the Scripture lessons, the training includes various creative resources:
Coloring pages featuring biblical scenes and characters, which encourage artistic expression while reinforcing the lesson themes.
Word searches and scripture crossword puzzles designed to enhance vocabulary, spelling, and Bible knowledge through enjoyable activities.
Inspiration from Pastoral Leaders
Participants benefit from messages and teachings by renowned pastoral leaders, enriching their understanding of ministry principles:
Chuck Smith imparts foundational teachings on effectively communicating the Word of God to children.
Jon Courson offers insights specifically tailored to the development and learning processes within children's ministry.
GRO Workshops and Supplemental Resources
The program also features GRO workshops, which are individual sessions focused on specific aspects of children's ministry. These workshops come with handouts to further support learning and implementation.
Additional tools provided include the QuickVerse 4.0 software for Windows – a powerful Bible study tool – featuring the King James Version, along with Easton's Bible Dictionary, Nave's Topical Bible, and Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotional. These resources assist leaders in deepening their biblical knowledge and devotional practice.
Faith-Building and Historical Context
Participants also receive A Venture In Faith Manual, which encourages personal spiritual growth and ministry commitment.
Moreover, the training includes a detailed history of Calvary Chapel, helping leaders appreciate the church’s background, core values, and approach to ministry, which shapes how they teach and nurture children today.
Summary
This Children's Ministry Training Class by Calvary Chapel is a holistic, well-rounded program that blends biblical teaching, practical application, and leadership development. By participating, volunteers and leaders are thoroughly prepared to foster a vibrant, nurturing, and biblically grounded environment for children to grow in their faith.

For Windows (32-bit Systems) / Mac (Power Macintosh: OS 9 or Below) [*Please review compatibility/platform sections in 'What You Get']
WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
