The Bible is fun and you better believe God has a sense of humor. We are going to do something a little different and share some Bible stories you can have a blast sharing with your kids paired with a snack! This is in honor VBS season. If you haven’t heard of VBS, it stands for Vacation Bible School. In the summer, many churches offer Vacation Bible School which brings kids together to learn about the Bible. It is always paired with fun activities and snacks!
