Holiday Chalk Talks
Christmas Beyond the Window
This chalk talk unfolds as a peaceful winter scene viewed from a farmhouse window—soft candlelight, a wreath on the sill, and beyond it a humble nativity set among barns, mountains, and open fields.
As the image develops, the message centers on stillness, reflection, and the quiet way God entered the world. In a season often filled with noise and activity, this presentation invites audiences to pause and consider the simple, powerful reality of Christ’s coming and the peace He brings.
Bethlehem: The Birth of Christ
A traditional Christmas chalk talk depicting the night Jesus was born—Bethlehem under the stars, shepherds, palm trees, animals, and the humble setting chosen by God for His Son.
As the scene takes shape, the message highlights God’s faithfulness, humility, and the miracle of Emmanuel—God with us. This presentation tells the timeless story of Christ’s birth in a reverent, visually engaging way that resonates with all ages.
He Is Risen
Beginning with the somber landscape of Jerusalem—crosses, palm trees, and the weight of sacrifice—this chalk talk moves toward the hope-filled image of the empty tomb.
Through the progression of the drawing, audiences are guided through Christ’s death and resurrection, emphasizing victory over sin and death and the promise of new life. This presentation offers a powerful visual reminder that the grave was not the end.
Under the Flag of Sky
Be amazed as the American flag is subtly blended into the sky as part of the scene. The imagery honors sacrifice, service, and steadfast commitment.
As the drawing unfolds, the message reflects on courage, faith, and gratitude—recognizing those who have served while pointing to the deeper freedoms preserved through sacrifice. This chalk talk is respectful, dignified, and well-suited for Veterans Day services and community events.

Where Fields Taught Faith
Set in a rustic Pennsylvania farm landscape of barns, fields, and open skies, this chalk talk blends personal stories from growing up on the farm with biblical truths about sowing, reaping, patience, and trust in God’s provision.
This presentation connects everyday work and rural life with Scripture, showing how faith is often shaped in ordinary places through consistency, obedience, and reliance on God.
Glorious Unfolding

The Road to Glory
Inspired by Pilgrim’s Progress, this chalk talk follows a traveler on a journey toward his final destination. Along the road, he encounters valleys, obstacles, and moments of difficulty before ultimately reaching Glory.

Children's Chalk Talks
Jonah and the Great Fish
This engaging chalk talk captures the dramatic moment Jonah is swallowed by the great fish. Through visual storytelling and age-appropriate narration, children learn about obedience, God’s mercy, and second chances.
The presentation reminds young audiences that God never gives up on us, even when we make mistakes, and that He can use anyone who turns back to Him.
In the Beginning
This children’s chalk talk brings the creation story to life, illustrating the beauty of the world as God speaks it into existence—light, land, plants, animals, and order emerging from creation.
As the scene unfolds, children are invited to imagine what the world was like at the very beginning and to understand that God is the Creator of all things and that everything He made was good.
