Spooky Lessons of the Bible
4-Lesson Curriculum

Spooky Lessons of the Bible is a 4-lesson series by Karl Bastian that will guide your children to a biblical understanding of life, showing how Jesus defeated death.

While our culture obsesses with spookiness, this series will redeem the season in a way you've never seen before, all while allowing your children to enjoy the season in a wholesome and fun manner.

Equip your kids with the knowledge to face their fears. Halloween provides our culture with a way of making light of death, and yet that nagging question remains: "What will happen to me after I die?"

Provide kids the answer that Jesus conquered Death. We can teach them that we know a Savior who faced death, destroyed it, and can raise us up too!

Spooky Lessons of the Bible
Single Lesson

Spooky Lessons of the Bible: Death Has No Sting is a SINGLE LESSON selected from our popular Halloween teaching unit by Karl Bastian. This self-contained, stand-alone lesson responds to kids' fears prompted by Halloween, showing us instead that Jesus has the victory over death.

The theme of this lesson is based on 1 Corinthians 15:55, 57: "'Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?' But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."

The focus is on the Resurrection of the Jesus and its centrality to the Christian Faith. Halloween provides our culture with a way of making light of death. With this lesson, you can illustrate that Jesus conquered Death, leaving nothing to fear!
