I had the best time presenting The Great Jace Escape to the children at Cornerstone Church. This time, I was invited to also teach! You can find the entire lesson for free, only on my website, Jennballaro.com.

What better lesson for an author to teach; a lesson about God’s story!
We talked all about words. And, of course, how in the beginning was the Word, and the Word became flesh.
I taught them all about some of the more popular stories in the Bible and even discussed some of the lesser-known ones. They were amazed that there is a story in the Bible with a talking donkey (Numbers 22).
We talked about the difference between fiction and truth, how we are all a part of God’s story, and how Jesus himself told stories in the Bible.
We had a great time discussing talents and gifts and how they can be used for God’s glory. They have some amazing talents! I finally figured out where my portion of musical talent went- some of the children can play four instruments!
The gift of creativity can come in all shapes and sizes, right Mila?
At the end there was even time for them to make a story of their own. Some of them were brave enough to try reading their stories to the group.
