SERIES DESCRIPTION
Our preschoolers are going to experience feeling sad, afraid, frustrated, and happy – sometimes all in one day! But here’s the good news: We are wonderfully made in God’s image, and God gave us all of these emotions! We want preschoolers to know that they can trust God with all their hearts and talk to God about everything, including how they feel. And when they do, God will always listen and help them because God loves them no matter what.
