EDUCATION
THE MINISTRY OF WISDOM
When Illumine approaches an education event, spiritual wisdom is the goal. Those who participate in the education events available below should be challenged to grow, to ask questions and discover answers, and to become something more than they were when the events began. This wisdom is the kind that will help people navigate life. It gives them answers in complicated situations by reframing those situations. Help people see life better by seeing it through the eyes of, and in the wisdom of, the God who gave them life.
Most importantly, the products below will help people connect their minds and thought processes to the good news of God's love in Jesus. As those you minister to begin to learn that everything connects to Christ's work for them, by the grace of God and through the Holy Spirit, they'll gain real wisdom. What comes next is truly wonderful to see.
ADULT EDUCATION CONTENT
Adult learners are, if nothing else, diverse. They typically want to learn, but they have high standards about what they are learning, how it is taught, and how useful it ends up being. As you help your adult learners grow by testing their assumptions and increasing their knowledge, we want to help you offer a variety of event types. This will help you serve every learner in your congregation.
Each week during this small group Bible study we will be looking at different types of conflict, how/why conflict sometimes occurs, and discuss effective ways to approach and solve conflicts quickly, honestly, and healthily when they arise.
God wants each of us to grow and progress in every way. He’s given us the resources we need to grow, and he gave us incredible minds and bodies and spirits and began processes that expand them - but (thankfully) he doesn't control us like puppets.
We have the opportunity to invest in the gifts he has given us. In this course we’re looking ahead at the other 11 months of 2017 to see how we can use them to grow. We’ll look specifically at how reading the Bible, praying, being part of godly communities, and being generous can make for a beneficial year.

YOUTH EDUCATION CONTENT
Developing a strong sense of Biblical literacy is a vital part of educating the youth of the church. Couple this need for understanding the stories and flow of the Bible with the important work of training up a child in the way they should go, and there is a lot to do during the formative years. The resources available here are meant to find the balance between Biblical literacy and practical usefulness, equipping the kids who experience them with both.
Science Camp is one way we focus on a child's spiritual education at Illumine. This five-day camp is a little like the Vacation Bible School you may be familiar with, combined with fun and engaging Science topics kids love. Science Camp teaches kids of all ages using a combination of games, crafts, lessons, music, and collaboration.
This valuable resource will help you run your own successful five-day Science Camp event, and in doing so you will be able to help kids in your community understand that God is the god of all things, including science. We’ve created this resource because we believe that when kids are able to connect science and religion, both areas of thought will make more sense. Thank you for investing in the spiritual and intellectual foundation of future leaders in Christ’s church.
The spiritual education of a child is uniquely important. Good, attentive instruction for kids from little on develops a strong, steady foundation that will last throughout life. We’ve worked to create a system of education that helps kids grow spiritually from cradle through college. Easter Camp teaches kids using a combination of games, crafts, lessons, music, and collaboration. These one-day camps give kids of all ages a way to interact with God's word in fun and engaging ways.
