Episode notes
Prophecy Is Part Of Whole Bible Teaching
- Teaching the whole counsel of God includes prophecy because a large portion of Scripture is prophetic and shapes doctrine.
- Joel Pickett emphasizes teaching prophecy as integral to Bible teaching rather than an optional topic students can't handle.
Build A Gradual Verse By Verse Curriculum
- Train students progressively: start with short Bible accounts in children's ministry and lengthen verse-by-verse studies as they mature.
- Collin Warner describes a pipeline: 15-minute kids accounts → 25–30 minute upper elementary → 45–50 minute junior high expository studies.
Students Called Lamps Lit Their Year Highlight
- After Lamps Lit many students named the conference the highlight of their year, not just of church life.
- Collin Warner noted more than half of students cited Lamps Lit as their year's highlight, prompting a surge in Bible hunger.
