Hi, Sara…I may need a little more explanation about what “core gospel value” means, but here are a few attempts. Let me know if these miss the target, and I’ll try to come up with something closer to what you are looking for:

The word “gospel” means “good news,”
The story of Christ takes away the blues!

Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Tell the victory Jesus has won!

Faith is believing in things unseen
God is the Rock on which we lean!

Through faith in God, we have been saved;
Through Jesus’ death, our penalty waved!

Mountains move when we have faith,
And God’s protection keeps us safe!

Hope these help!

Michael

Hey, Sherrie…I didn’t, but I made an attempt. Feel free to modify these to suit your context, but maybe they will get your started.
Love – God wants us to share the love He sent to us from up above.
Joy – Jesus fills our life with yous that don’t depend on wealth or toys. (or “lots of toys” or “fun or toys”)
Peace – When we’re stressed and need release, God will help us find our peace.
Patience – A patient heart will stop and wait, because the Lord is never late. (or “A patient heart will wait and not take Satan’s bait.”
Kindness – God repays those He can find who set their hearts on being kind.
Goodness – When you’re good, you do what’s right. You try to walk within the light.
Faithfulness – Being faithful means you’re true to things the Lord asks you to do.
Gentleness – A gentle spirit helps those who hurt. It’s never mean or rude or curt.
Self-Control – Discipline and self-control will help you reach a godly goal.

Hope these are helpful!

Hi, Deena. Thank you for your comment! I love memory verses and should use them more. I think I'm just not in the habit of incorporating them. It's a good area for me to start improving, and I'll start adding those to the lessons I post. In the meantime, I think some of the Scriptures used in the lessons might turn out to be good verses to memorize. I also love teaching on Bible stories. I haven't been as disciplined about writing those down over the years, so I need to go back and start putting them to paper. I taught a series on David this year at summer camp, and I've posted two of the four-lesson series. You can find them here and here. This week, I promise to post lessons 3 and 4 from that series. I've also got a series on Peter and one on Joseph that I've taught in previous years at camp. I'll see if those can be polished up and posted, too. Hope these will be helpful for your ministry! Thank you for the great suggestions! Michael

hello! God Bless you in your ongoing work. I was just wondering why you don’t use memory verses instead of rhymes. Also do you have lessons on the Bible stories or do you mostly do topical lessons? I love your work. You are gifted in making spiritual truths relevant and understandable to children. I am just finding that the children do not know the Bible very well.
