Bible Bucks




In the past year, we have started a scripture memorization program for kids at our church.  We base it off of Hebrews 4:12, which you will see on most of our materials.  As the kids learn the verses or bring their Bibles each week, they can earn "Bible Bucks".  Some verses are more difficult than others, and kids earn more Bible Bucks for these harder verses.  Kids can save up their Bible Bucks to buy stuff out of our Four:12 Store.  We wrestled with whether or not to use a reward type program to help kids memorize scripture.  Ultimately, we want kids to memorize scripture without wanting to get anything in return for doing it.  But, we believe that this is a good way to get kids excited about reading scripture at a young age.  It helps them to begin to see that they can do it on their own.  Below I have attached the Bible Buck design.  I also have the file as a .psd if you would like to modify anything.

Here is a baptism booklet that we use at our church.  There are three parts to the booklet: The student journal cover, the student journal insides, and the parent guide.  We had it printed professionally through a local printer.  The files are attached below!
