Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
A is for apathy, B is for bummers, C is for changes. . .and you're off to 13 get-up-and-get-moving sessions (A through M) that communicate life lessons to junior highers in ways only a junior higher would appreciate. The sessions in Creative Junior High Programs from A to Z, Vol. 1 are crammed with Bible studies, games, stories, role-plays, skits, videos (some of which you can create!), discussion triggers, and off-site activities--all wrapped around these A-to-Z themes: - Apathy - Encouragement - Integrity - Bummers - Friendships - Judging - Changes - Dating - Growing up - Know-it-alls - Heroes - Loneliness - Mouth Have fun prepping for and teaching these sessions yourself, or hand them off to a volunteer Each program begins with a "Big Idea" (a clear, succinctly stated theme), a relevant passage of Scripture, a materials-needed list, preparation tips--junior highers are used to associating with God. Which is the point of this topical curriculum; God's not boring, and neither are Creative Junior High Programs.
