What are the Strengths of Purple Curriculum?
It's Deep Yet Simple
Purple has extraordinary biblical depth. The scholarship is seminary-grade and peer-reviewed. It is deep enough to teach an adult, but it is presented simply enough to teach a five-year old. This means the volunteers and the children can learn at the same time!
It's Engaging & Fun
Every lesson is fast-paced and interactive. We play lots of games and make lots of crafts, and we have opportunities to talk and make friends. The games and crafts are not just fun, but they tie into the lessons to make the Bible teaching memorable.
It's Easy to Use
Each lesson is highly organized, which makes it easy to follow and modify as needed. Even inexperienced teachers can use the curriculum effectively.
It's Flexible for Ages 5-12
Purple supports a very wide age range from 5 to 12. For small churches, the wide age range allows one teacher to help more children. Multiple teachers and assistants can share a room and grow together. As your ministry grows, you can easily split your group by age while keeping the curriculum consistent.
What are people saying about Purple Curriculum?
Pastors and elders who are careful or cautious about the Bible teaching that takes place in their church can be confident this new curriculum shares their passion for biblical and theological integrity. Every lesson is packed with interactive material to make learning fun. For church planters and small church pastors Purple is a big win, and it's absolutely free!

Purple is an engaging and Scripture-saturated curriculum for kids! It introduces the Christian basics that many adults frequently miss like the Gospel, the Ten Commandments, the Apostles’ Creed, Christian Living, Evangelism, Apologetics, and more. The discipleship of children in the home and the church is critical, and Purple is a useful tool for the local church’s aim of strengthening Christian families.
-- Dr. Scott MacDonald, Associate Professor of Theology, Canadian Baptist Theological Seminary

Creativity and theological depth don’t often go together in children’s curriculum. Some are incredibly creative with little substance. Others have depth but lack imagination. Purple is an outlier. Creativity abounds throughout, but not at the expense of truth. Deep truths are presented in a manner that is accessible and engaging to young minds and hearts. What a winning combination!
-- Dr. Gordon Grieve, Former Regional Ministry Leader, CNBC

FAQ
Why is it called Purple Curriculum?
We have two reasons for our name. First, purple is the color of royalty. So, the color purple represents our goal to help children follow Jesus as king.
Second, purple is made by combining blue and red. Blue reminds us of the deep ocean, and red reminds us of love. So, we help children by combining deep biblical teaching with the love of volunteers.
Why is Purple Curriculum free?
Purple Curriculum is free because our team sees a tremendous need for high quality lessons for children. We just want to help as many people as we can, and we felt that a free curriculum would be the best way to help. So, if you love our work, we would be thrilled if you shared it with your friends!
