Despite that, Enns doesn't try to do too much. Instead, he works progressively, beginning with Year One and continuing here in Year Two, building an every growing biblical/biblical-theological foundation for my daughters and our family. Buy whatever you can in this series. It's truly worth it!
"Telling God's Story Year Two: The Kingdom of Heaven" is made up of two parts: Instructor Text and Teaching Guide and Student Guide and Activity Pages. For this review, the focus will be on the Instructor Text and Teaching Guide.
The "Instructor Text and Teaching Guide" is written in an easy, conversational tone between the author and the reader. The curriculum is organized to allow the participants "to get to know Jesus better," as the author states. The curriculum is divided into eight units: Stories Jesus Told, Miracles Jesus Did, Teachings of Jesus, The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus' Early Life, Jesus' Disciples, Opposition to Jesus, and The End of Jesus Life. The author has included an introduction which explains the curriculum's premise and a supplemental lesson titled, "The Rest of the Story." Each lesson contains the Biblical reference which is the basis for the lesson, "What the Parent Should Know", followed by the lesson text.
"Telling God's Story Year Two: The Kingdom of Heaven" is straightforward, authored in a conversational tone. The curriculum is "ecumenical," appealing to all denominations of the Christian church. Our family has been pleased with Enns' insight and look forward to his next installment in the "Telling God's Story" curriculum.
