Chess Leaders Guide

The Chess Module teaches dads and boys the basics of the game while helping them discover that God has equipped each of us—big and small—to serve Him faithfully in His kingdom.


Practical Purpose: Equip dads and boys to explore the strategy and structure of chess while learning how every person has a meaningful role in God’s kingdom.


Boys Will Learn:

 

  • How each chess piece moves, works, and contributes to the overall strategy of the game.

  • That even small or seemingly simple pieces play important roles—just like people in God’s family.

  • How God equips His children with unique gifts, strengths, and responsibilities.

Projects:

 

  • Practicing basic chess moves, simple strategies, and fun mini-games that build confidence.

  • Setting up friendly matches between dads and boys to reinforce learning and teamwork.

  • Completing hands-on activities such as creating simple chess challenges or personalized pieces.

Spiritual Goals:

 

  • Understand what it means to serve the King—Jesus—and to use their gifts for His purposes.

  • Learn that there are no “unimportant” people in God’s kingdom; everyone matters and has a role.

  • Grow in confidence that God has faithfully equipped them to live for Him, no matter their age or size.
