Heaven's Kitchen Curriculum Download $50

Cook up some fun with Heaven’s Kitchen exploring parables that Jesus told. Through the use of a
cooking theme, kids will learn how Jesus used ordinary ingredients like soil and seeds, salt, yeast,
wheat and fruit to teach us about everyday living here on earth. Whether watching Chef Emerald
and Apprentice Chowdown, participating in the telling of a parable, learning about and tasting the
ingredient of the day, investigating with a Kitchen Science experiment or competing in the Iron Chef
Cook-off, kids will not only learn what the parables mean but also the cultural background to the stories
and how to apply the point of the stories to their own lives.

Family resource filled with activities that families can do together to reinforce what their kids learned at church. The resource contains five chapters that correspond with the lessons in the Heaven’s Kitchen curriculum.
