Multi-Age Sunday School Lesson Plans

Season 3: Parables

Welcome to the Season 3 Multi-Age Sunday School Lesson Plans page. Below are 12 lessons that cover parables that Jesus told, including the Prodigal Son, Good Samaritan, and 10 Talents. Each lesson is centered around a Bible story and was written for a 40 to 45 minute class.

I originally wrote the lessons for a class that had 10 to 14 students in it with an age range from preschoolers to 8th graders. Yes, initially, the youngest ages were a little lost and the oldest ages were a little bored, but I made sure to have those two ends of the age spectrum sit and work together and once we were five to six lessons in, the class dynamics were pretty good. I hope you experience a similar outcome.
