Just One Minute

How long would it take you to improve your Sunday School experience next week? To engage your students a little better in the study of God's Word?

Just one minute! Really. Try it. Spend one minute right now. Here are some possible one-minute "tasks" to consider.

• Pray for one of your students, the first one who comes to mind.
• Think of an activity that always seems to perk up your students and make a note (written or mental) to incorporate it into your next lesson.
• Type an encouraging e-mail to a teacher, student, or parent. (A phone call would be good too, but that might take three minutes.)
• Read the key point for your next lesson and try to commit it to memory.
• Read a Bible verse, one from the lesson text or a favorite, and consider how it applies to you and your students. "What does this mean?"
• Write one sentence about the importance of Sunday School and send it to your pastor or church secretary for inclusion in the bulletin.

Yes, even a little bit of effort can make a difference.

I'm curious, though. What did you do with your minute?

God bless you, every minute, as you teach His children His Word!
