]]> We are excited to offer you the Together We Can detective club lessons to compliment your reading of Elizabeth and Stella Meet Zoe Empowers. We know that this will be an incredible learning journey for you and your little detectives. It is our hope that at the end of this lesson you and your detectives will have a greater understanding of the way Zoe Empowers works to build partnerships between children in need and congregations.

This set of lessons is designed to be used in a sequence and fits nicely into Lent, Advent, or a VBS model. However, the lessons can also be used separately without the detective theme if you only have one meeting.

Some churches create jars of dried beans and other soup ingredients and sell them to raise funds for Zoe Empowers. Using ingredients that are native to one of our program countries is a fun way to tie the food to the children in the program.

The post Toxic Charity Study appeared first on Zoe Empowers.

]]> There are many books on the market today that challenge traditional forms of charitable giving and call into question the long-term impacts of how churches have conducted “missions.” A list of such titles can be found on our website. One of the books, Toxic Charity, is especially popular with church groups and lay audiences because its straightforward nature makes it easy to understand and quick to read.

For guiding questions that facilitate group discussion, prompt individuals to apply the principles of the book to their own lives, and challenge the body of Christ to think critically about the impacts of their own church’s mission, download the Toxic Charity Book Study Guide.

It can be used well as a weekly study, discussing one or two chapters each week. Or, if you would prefer, you could host a one-time event and consider making it into a retreat for focusing on your church’s missions. One person can choose to lead the group through discussion, or as a group you can casually discuss which questions interest you the most. Feel free to adapt it to your needs and preferences!

]]> The season of Advent is a wonderful time to remember all that we have to be grateful for amidst a consumerist-filled society that struggles to remember the real hope of Christmas. The stories of vulnerable children in Kenya and Rwanda who are filled with the hope of Christ are a powerful way to do so. This devotional is a great way to come together and reflect, and can be easily adapted to an extended Scriptural study and discussion, or could serve as a starting point for your meeting times together.
