Below are the free Sunday School lesson plans

in .pdf format to download. They are grouped on pages by similar content or direction. On the pages you will find a brief description of the Bible lesson handout as well as the resources I used to create the youth group lesson. Keep two or three in your brief case so you can use the one most appropriate to your kids needs on the particular day.

Newest lessons: Know Your Enemy , Conviction or Condemnation

The youth group lesson plans are color coded in this tan color. All are unique (30 so far), found nowhere else, and are completely free. They have all been taught and revised several times so you are getting a tried and true lesson. They are so easy to do that they can also be used for church handout papers.

Visit my home page for updated topical information, recent changes, and brief descriptions of other topic covered in this website.

What visitors are saying:

"I am so grateful for your website.  I am a new youth leader and was a little nervous about doing the lessons.  Last week I did families-getting along, and it was awesome.  I made a few changes (mostly to make it a little shorter) but it gave me what I needed to get started.  I am not a teacher, so building a lesson from scratch is beyond me.  Anyway, I just wanted to thank you and may God bless you for providing such a wonderful resource to people." Jill.
Thank you Jill. Great to hear it. Send e-mail to: kevinophoff@coconutmtn.com
