See You on the Other Side! Kids' Edition
The entire series for kids ages 8–11 (grades 3–5). Stories, checkpoints, activities that work right on your screen, and a “Remember It!” truth that grows every week.
See You on the Other Side · Free · No app · No sign-up
See You on the Other Side! Digital games
Seven games that go with the See You on the Other Side series and its comic book, A Tour of Heaven. They play right in the web browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and every one teaches something from the series: the eight truths, the order of the tour, Bible verses and the stories from Sunday. Each game has a “How to play” guide, and Baxter explains the rules.
For families and churches: the games are free to use and share. Send the link to families, put it on a screen in class, or let kids play after the service. Progress saves on each device, and nothing collects names or personal information.
Everything for kids: which one is right for your child?
There's a kids' book, a comic book, a listening guide for church, a listening guide recap, digital games and a small group curriculum. Every one teaches the same eight truths as Sunday's message. They differ by age, and by where you use them: in church, in kids' ministry, or at home.
Pastor Rick wrote all of these from his own sermons, so kids hear the same stories, verses and big ideas the grown-ups hear on Sunday. Baxter, the tour guide, is Pastor Rick and Joy's real dog, and the stories (the gym, the goats, the truck ride) really happened.
Eight short comic issues, one per week. Baxter, Pastor Rick and Joy take four kids on a tour tram through each message.
Best first pick. Great for younger kids, reluctant readers and reading aloud together. About 10 minutes per issue.
Read Issue 1 →The full series as a kids' chapter book: real stories, Bible verses, tap-to-answer checkpoints and a memory verse each chapter.
Best for kids who can read on their own and want to go deeper. About 20 minutes per chapter.

What your kids do in their small group each week (tap to see it)
One series. The entire church. The same week.
At Capitol City Church, everyone goes through the series together. On Sunday the entire church hears the same message. During the week, adults talk it over in City Groups, kids dig in with their own small groups, and families keep talking at home. Youth is next.
The entire church hears the same sermon. Kids in the service follow along with their own listening guide.
Adult small groups discuss the same message that week with questions and a leader guide.
An 8-week curriculum with games, object lessons and plain-language prep for every leader.
The Kids' Edition, the comic book, games and a weekly question to talk over together.
A youth track for the same series is in the works.
