💡 Big Idea: Jesus trains everyday kids to live like Bible heroes—brave, resilient, wise, and protective—so they can love others and keep God’s mission going.
📖 Memory Verse: 1 Corinthians 16:13–14 — “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love.”
🔍 Theme Hook: “Hero Academy: Boot Camp.” Cadets report to training HQ, open a mission file from Scripture, complete a skill drill, and earn a Hero Badge. (can be nametags with awards written on them for a simple “badge” )(Courage, Resilience, Wisdom, Protection).
✝️ Gospel Connection: The greatest Hero is Jesus. He rescued us through His death and resurrection and gives the Spirit to form His courage, perseverance, wisdom, and protective love in us.
