Otto Comes to New Orleans

Posted on June 24, 2020 by Debbie

Otto is a puppet from Marietta, Texas. He is a puppet of Pastor Chas Carlisle of Oak Ridge Baptist Church. He brought Otto with his youth group last year to volunteer at Delacroix Hope Baptist Church Vacation Bible School (we coordinated). They loved us and we loved them. They planned another mission trip to help us this year. The pandemic changed everything, so we went to plan B. Chas, Otto, and sons, Charlie, and Caleb came. We are visiting several sites and bringing Vacation Bible School in a Bag!

Otto thinks he knows what the Fruit of the Spirit is…

Does COVID19 mark entrance of final days?

Lately, during this pandemic, a common and sensible question asked is, “Are we end the last days? Just as one needs to prepare for retirement or a rainy day, even of more importance, one must prepare for the coming of the Lord! We created this article on the end-times to help simplify the massive amount of information on the end-time.

Help Kids Understand the Armor of God

Posted on May 18, 2020 by Debbie
Put on the full armor of God

During our many years of teaching children, we had sessions on the teachings of the Armor of God. CEFPress produced great material over the years. Phil reflected on each part of the armor and its significance. He wanted to explain the armor in such a way, that we could eliminate the vagueness and abstractness (or incorrect teachings) of the various parts. Here is a great guide to give kids a clearer understanding of the armor of God.

Pilgrims Progress, an all-time Christian classic, is an allegory of the Christian life from unbelief, to salvation, to struggles, to entrance into heaven. Children and youth (adults too) need guidance to understand the different characters and concepts. We will insert a guide here soon. (If not inserted, send us an email and we will email you one.)
