Abundant Life Baptist Church Children's Sunday School Cowboy Day - October 12th, 2008

We had the opportunity to help the Sunday School ministry of Abundant Life Baptist Church on October 12, 2008. Abundant Life was my home church after I placed my faith in Christ. The church, along with its home city of Lee's Summit, MO has grown quite a bit over the past several years. We were able use our camp horses to help us teach the kindergarten through fifth grade Sunday School classes about bridling their tongues and trusting in the Lord. Bridling the tongue is found in James chapter three and uses a horse's bridle as an example of control. Having the horses there really gave the kids something to remember as they consider honoring the Lord with what they say. I've also found, the longer that we work with horses, that a horse's relationship to the rider is an excellent illustration of the relationship of man's responsibility and God's responsibility. It is all about trust!
