Need we say more?

*This a Group Magazine Sponsored event!

We have challenged two of our team members, Scott Firestone & Jeff Storm, to a waxing challenge of epic proportions! They have one goal to not scream during the waxing of their backs. What do they get out of it? Well…technically they think the winner, ie the one not to scream first, gets an iPad2. However, they actually get a really nice key chain, but shhh don’t tell anyone!

Really they win something otherwise they wouldn’t do this, but the best part is everyone gets to watch the pain on the face of these two “men”! It will be priceless to say the least!

We know that you are intrigued, scared, or excited…all of which are great reasons to invite everyone you know to watch this live ONE-TIME event!

When: Wednesday July 13th @11am (Mtn)
Where: www.ScreamingDeal.tv

It’s that time a year when we roll out 40% off a ton of resources for 40 hours. It’s a great time to stock up and save on some of our best resources. There are student books, parent books, curriculum, bible studies, and games. I think you’ll find something that can help your ministry.

We are excited to be introducing 2 BRAND NEW Live Curriculum Plans! Live Curriculum has already changed the way you, your volunteers, and your students interact with each other and most importantly with God.
