About
Photo courtesy of my sister:
Hello there! My name is Martha Curry. I'm married to a wonderful man and we have two boys. I am a stay-at-home-mom who chooses to homeschool. I am a member of the church of Christ and I teach different Bible classes at our local church. My favorite class to teach is the PreK and K class. I spend a lot of my "spare" time creating my own teaching
materials for Bible class and I have been encouraged to start a website to share my material, so that's what this is. There are some free files that anyone can download, but the majority is only accessible to those with a yearly membership. The membership fee is not outrageously expensive and goes towards maintaining this website as well as my time and efforts. I hope you'll join today!
Logo
I hope the "Y" in my logo reminds you of a sprouting, growing child because that's what I was going for. I don't know what it is about Moses' song in Deuteronomy 32, but verse two has become a favorite of mine:
Let my teaching fall like rain
and my word settle like dew,
like gentle rain on new grass
and showers on young plants.
Children are a lot like young plants; sprouting and growing. Teaching them can be difficult and time-consuming, but it can also be very rewarding. Just as John said in 3 John 1:4, "I have no greater joy than this: to hear that my children are walking in the truth."
Graphics
Some of the graphics in my files have been purchased by myself with the rights to resell. I could not do what I do without quality graphics, therefore I hope you will respect their hard work.
I love Free Bible Images because I love having pictures of Bible stories that don't look
like cartoons. I want the children to know that the Bible is true and that all the stories
I am teaching them really happened, and I believe having realistic illustrations helps
them understand that. I print out the pictures from their website and use them while I
am retelling the story. All of their stories have a "Story Planner" to help you tell the
story and I have found them to be accurate with the Bible. They have graciously allowed me to use their images in my material.
Charlottle's Clips has some great clipart of Bible figures that I have used to make several
interactive bulletin boards and lapbooks. I have purchased these graphics with the right
to resell them in my material; however, the graphics are copyrighted and you may
NOT copy them out of my files to use for something else. If you want to use her
images for something else, please buy them yourself.
