Ladder Craft Ideas for Spiritual Growth  

 Here are some engaging ladder crafts to help visualize the steps of faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity. 

 Paper Ladder of Faith: Cut out eight paper rungs, each representing a virtue. Arrange them in ladder form, write each virtue on the steps, and decorate with Bible verses and drawings.  

Popsicle Stick Ladder: Use popsicle sticks to create a ladder structure. Attach eight horizontal steps and label them with the virtues from 2 Peter 1:4-9. Decorate them with colors and meaningful symbols.  

Clothespin Climbing Ladder: Hang a string vertically and use clothespins to hold small paper notes with each virtue. Move the clothespins upward as each step of growth is applied.  

Interactive "Climb the Ladder" Game: Draw a large ladder on a poster board with the virtues ascending in order. Use sticky notes for students to write examples of how they practice each virtue and place them on the correct step.  

Bible Verse Ladder Wall Art: Create a decorative ladder using wood, cardboard, or sturdy materials. Paint and label each rung with a virtue and its corresponding Bible verse. Hang it in a classroom or home as a daily reminder of spiritual growth.  

These crafts help visualize growth in faith and encourage believers to embrace God’s wisdom and character.

What Kind Of Apples - updated


What Kind Of Apples

If you were a tree;
of apples so bold;
What kind of apples;
would your tree limbs hold?

Would they be bitter;
Or would they be sweet?
Would your apples provide;
A nutritious treat?

Apples of goodness;
Filled with God's mercy?
Apples of pardon;
Grace for the thirsty?

In Jesus our tree;
Can bare joy divine.
Through trouble and trial;
Our Jesus would shine.

Apples of patience;
Longsuffering too.
What kind of apples;
Are falling from you?

Crab apples are green;
And bitter to eat.
Some apples are rotten;
and lay at ones feet.

A fruit bearing tree;
In Jesus I'm told.
Will bare sweet apples;
Sweet apples of gold.

Like honey they yield;
Providing the world.
With apples of goodness;
Produced by our Lord.

If you were a tree;
of apples so bold;
What kind of apples;
would your tree limbs hold?

Galatians 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance:
against such there is no law.
