Your favorite blog posts from June 2018 are here! Check out our full list. | Sparkhouse

You can always tell that August will be here before you know it when the big box stores start to stack the front aisles with back-to-school goodies, and you can only wonder what in the world happened to the past two months of summer!

Here at Sparkhouse, it has been a busy summer indeed. In July, we launched a new digital curricula platform – Sparkhouse Digital – and a small group series, Dialogues On, to help your adults tackle difficult topics. Plus, we had some fun along the way by attending this year’s ELCA Youth Gathering, continuing to track your #FlatJesus adventures, and making memories with the Frolic Summer Book Club!

As we celebrate everything that July had to offer, we’re highlighting your favorite blog posts from the month.
