Train your Sunday School and small group leaders because Sunday School STILL matters.
- It STILL reaches, disciples, cares, evangelizes, trains leaders, and makes a difference in people’s lives, regardless of age.
- It STILL strengthens churches. Research says more than 80% of people who attend Sunday School today will still be involved in the church five years later.
- It STILL leads people to Christ. Pastors say at least half of lost adults are saved within 12 months of attending Sunday School.
Training is available for all preschool, children, student and adult Sunday School and small group teachers, leaders and workers, including directors and pastors/staff at 3 locations in March 2026. Bring your team for fresh training.

Adults/Pastors/Director Training
A movement of disciple-making begins in the smallest group: God and you. As you abide and obey, you can guide others to abide and obey His Word. A small start in the powerful disciple-making movement will transform your life and restore the church to her mission mandate.
Jesus came with a clear message and methodology. Though He spoke to the masses, He led a few to transform the world. He started small, did it right, and built it strong. This training will help you take steps to implement the practices of Jesus as you join the mighty movement He started.
Daniel Edmonds will lead adult teachers, pastors, and directors to examine these truths from his book, Start Small. Do It Right. Build It Strong.: Observing Jesus: What He Did That You Can Do. Daniel served as a pastor and associate pastor with disciple-making responsibilities prior to joining the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions as the Director of the Office of Sunday School & Discipleship. In addition to writing this book, Daniel has contributed to several other books and publications.
