The NET Presentation for Children

The NET for Children is a tool to help children present the plan of salvation using their personal testimony.  The NET is divided into three parts: an interactive booklet titled “My Story,” an instruction sheet, and a set of Bible verse puzzles.  All of these are free for you to download.  

There are basic instructions that will help you guide Christian children in writing out their personal testimony using the “My Story” booklet.  The fun puzzles are designed to help children discover several Bible verses that are applicable to the plan of salvation.
