Dear Teacher or Parent,

hank you for choosing our preschool study, Exploring God’s Love. Here

at Positive Action Bible Curriculum, it is our prayer that your

students will grow in their knowledge of God and their

love for Him as they discover the majesty of His glory. This

study will introduce your students to one aspect of that glory—the amazing love of

God. They will follow God’s loving plan from the creation of the world to its climax in

the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, His Son. If we can be a help to you

in this study or future studies, don’t hesitate to contact us.
