Assist Mississippi Baptist churches to build multiplying disciples through engaging individuals in Bible study, Fellowship, Ministry, Worship, Evangelism, and Prayer; and in the development of strong Acts 1:8 churches.
Sunday School, or small group Bible study, is still the best strategy to accomplish the challenge before us. The principles given to us in Acts are still valid today. As the early New Testament church engaged with culture in the context of their local community, they saw lifestyle Christianity at its best. They encountered challenge, but they found success. The same is true today. We want to come alongside Mississippi Baptist churches by providing resources and equipping you to meet the challenges of today’s culture with the Good News of Jesus.
The Transformational Sunday School is a process to help churches become better organized in each of the areas listed in the Great Commission. God’s mission for His church is fulfilled when the church engages in the work of the Great Commissions: to Go, to Baptize, and to Teach. We believe the Great Commission does its best work when the church captures a vision for Sunday School.
We also believe we can assist our churches in reaching children, youth, and adults through Vacation Bible School. We want to assist every church by equipping strong Vacation Bible School leadership in planning, preparation, participation, and follow-up. This equipping can be done regardless of the curriculum a church decides to use. When VBS is done right, it can be one of the most effective tools you have to reach the total family.
We are a resource team for every church. We now have nine Regional Sunday School Consultants assisting us to help you. We are excited these called, experienced men of God are near you and available to support you in addition to the resources our Department can provide. Our Sunday School staff will come as we can, but when time commitments prevent us; these men are just as capable as we are.
We are still excited about our prayer resource to assist you. “Praying Up Your Sunday School” is a six-week prayer strategy to help you equip and encourage your church to be prayer warriors. As you pray for your church leadership, members, friends not enrolled in Sunday School, and friends who are not yet believers in Christ, you will see God do a mighty work in your community. That is God’s promise.
Your Sunday School Department is here is assist you at your point of need. Do not hesitate to call us. We want to be your encourager and prayer partner.

Wouldn’t it be great if your Sunday School could go to the doctor for a checkup? Guess what, it can! Better yet, it is free and the doctor makes house calls.
The Transformational Sunday School is a mentoring process that links individual churches with a consultant in a 12 month working relationship. The plan is designed to work with an “association of churches.” It has its greatest sucees when multiple churches within an association participate.
