A beautiful orphan queen, a hot-tempered king, and an arrogant pride-filled official set the stage for this intriguing drama. There's nothing like a good story, and there's truly none more suspenseful than Esther. What will this young beauty contestant do when faced with the life or death of her people? Where will our heroine find the courage to risk her life for others? And what can her dilemma possibly do with us?
These four exciting large group lessons are written in a fun and lively style that will really connect with kids. We'll see that Esther's people needed a uniquely qualified rescuer to spare them from the enemy's plot against their lives. Then we'll make the distinct connection to what Jesus did for us on the cross. The fourth week is a salvation message, focusing on the sacrifice Jesus made and how we can respond. And we cap off the series with a festive royal feast to celebrate the life God provides–and then protects.
Small group discussions are where lives are changed! Our insightful questions lead the way for kids to discover that a difficult situation is one that God is ready to pour His grace into. We always include a fun, often surprising, hands-on component for tactile learners. Every lesson is laid out in a simple format so your leaders are set up for success.

“A Game Changer!”
The Wise Ways curriculum has been a game changer for our public school Bible clubs! The topics are relevant to where our students are walking and provide essential truth to help them navigate hard and challenging spaces. The small group questions allow for leaders to dig a bit deeper into each topic with students face to face, giving students essential time to wrestle with how these truths can play out in their daily lives. I have seen this curriculum used in different spaces, and it has been effective in each. I can confidently walk away from each club meeting and know that we have handed our students real truth and ways to apply it to wise living.

“One of the most effective and engaging curricula I’ve ever used"
I have served as a small group leader for more than two decades, and Wise Ways was one of the most effective and engaging curricula I’ve ever used. Each week, my students were genuinely invested as we explored what Scripture teaches about generosity, thanksgiving, grit, thriving, procrastination, letting go of grudges, and more.
This curriculum consistently sparked meaningful conversations and helped my students connect biblical truth to real‑life challenges. I highly recommend Wise Ways to any ministry leader or parent who wants to help children attain the peace of mind, joy, resilience, and wisdom that comes from following Jesus well.
