Preteen / Junior High Curriculum

Today's preteens are getting lost in transition as they shift from childhood to adolescence, a unique and challenging time when they are not quite one thing and not quite the other. Caught In Between is a comprehensive strategy for engaging preteens well before they make the transition. For leaders in children's ministry AND youth ministry - because it's necessary to catch preteens on both sides of the divide.

Take preteens deep into God's Word to discover who God is and who they are in Him! The Action Bible Curriculum challenges students ages 9-12 to move from Bible information to transformation. As they establish values, they'll develop a lifetime of faith through investigating God's Word, memorizing key verses, and connecting timeless truth to their life today. The Quarterly Kit includes: 2 Leader Guides, 5 Student Books, 13 Videos on DVD (one video for every lesson). For Grades 4, 5, and 6.

A self-contained 5-lesson study with all you need for a dynamic Sunday School or Bible Study

Teens face unique challenges today, and many young people look to their peers for solutions. This study confronts peer pressure head-on, challenging your students to discern how this influence is applied and encouraging them to resist it by God's grace. Our lives must be molded after Christ's example, driven by a love for Him - not subject to the ever-changing trends of today's culture.
