VBS preview event to immerse leaders in 2025 theme

In January, around 4,000 ministry leaders and volunteers will gather in Nashville, Tennessee, Houston and Fort Worth, Texas, and Ridgecrest, North Carolina, for Lifeway’s annual Vacation Bible School Preview events.

Leaders will be immersed in Lifeway’s 2025 VBS theme —“Magnified!”

“We want leaders to experience the fun and energy that encompasses VBS while we take a deeper dive into Psalm 34:3,” said Melita Thomas, Lifeway’s VBS specialist. “As we lead them through Lifeway’s 2025 VBS material, the hope is that they begin to understand the grandeur and greatness of God through both small and large perspectives.”

The Lifeway 2025 VBS Preview event will explore the theme of this summer’s VBS, and will equip potential volunteers and church leaders with the training, tools, motivation and inspiration to craft their church’s VBS into an impactful and engaging event for kids of all ages.
