Weekly Resources

We are WILD about families and WILD about Jesus...

Because Jesus is WILD about you!

The Wild at Real Life is a Bible-based, age-appropriate, community for children from birth through 5th grade. Childhood is the most crucial time of development in a person's faith and we are committed to loving and teaching your children about God.
Whatever your child's age or personality, you can know they are being loved and taught right on their level. In today's difficult culture, we stand with you in making your family all it can be. We like to say it this way: Around here we are WILD about families and WILD about Jesus.

Current Series- "Changing Gears"
A 4-WEEK SERIES FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT ON JESUS' MINISTRY
Clank! Beep! Clunk! Kids love robots, especially ones that can transform into something new or have really cool abilities. In this four-week series from Jesus’ ministry on earth, you’ll introduce kids to a different story each week that shows us how God’s truths never change, but Jesus changes everything — including us! We’ll see that we change when we know who God is, our past doesn’t change God’s love for us, and that Jesus changes how we see things because Jesus can change anything!
*Toddler/Preschool lessons and theme are different. Check out the monthly overview for more info!

Tip of the Month

March
Each month we provide a new and exciting Parent Tip for you to check out. This month we talk about how we can celebrate and see our kid’s greatness. They are so busy in their everyday lives that they don’t often stop to acknowledge their own amazing qualities. It is up to us as parents to help them with this. We need to find their wins. This may require us to be more creative as to how we engage them in conversations. It is also important for us to stop and take the time to rejoice in those wins. Give them lots of praise for their accomplishments! However, the most important way we can celebrate our kids is to remind them that regardless of all of their successes, we simply love them for just being who they are- one AMAZING KID – YOUR KID!! Check out this month's video for some practical tips!
