Publisher's Description

Fall Theme: Community (Acts)
Unit 1: "Seeds of New Growth" includes four sessions. These sessions explore the Book of Acts and focus on how the followers of Christ found the strength to speak God’s Word
with boldness, sacrifice for the good of others, obey God’s call over earthly authority, and remember God’s faithfulness.

Unit 2: "Giving Bold Testimony" also has four sessions and is based on the Book of Acts. This unit takes a look at spiritual power that resulted in Jesus’ followers taking risks to tell the good news and an increase in believers.

Unite 3: "Spreading the Gospel" is a five-session unit and continues in the Book of Acts. This unit tells how the fervent prayer of the church and an angel delivered Peter and how Paul’s preaching resulted in the good news being spread into new regions.

This trust curriculum has been refreshed, while keeping everything you love about the resources. Bible Lessons for Youth is a comprehensive 6-year Bible-to-life curriculum that helps teens apply the Bible to their real-life. Its teacher-friendly format is built around a step-by-step sequence with thought-provoking activities designed to help youth understand Scripture and apply it to their individual experiences.

Designed to make teaching Bible Lessons for Youth to your youth easy with each session broken up into small segments. The student book is reproduced as the center piece of each session in the leader guide and is surrounded by the minute-by-minute teaching plans printed in the margin. The instructions are provided for student book activities, discussion questions, illustrative games and short drama skits. Complete Scripture texts are printed in all books. (No need to pause while everyone hunts for the appropriate verse.) At anytime during the quarter you can refer back to the convenient Overview section found at the front of the guide and also take a moment to read the "Teaching Tools" article provided at the back of the guide. Don’t forget to check out the "Out and About" activity that will allow your students to take what they learn in Sunday school outside the classroom, enhancing their faith journey.
