Children’s Sunday School Downloads NEW Deep Blue Life Deep Blue Life is a downloadable, customizable curriculum option that focuses on living life faithfully.

Through Bible stories, stories about faith leaders, and spiritual practices, your children will be empowered to take part in God’s great story. Sessions are available as individual downloads, as 13-session bundles, or as an entire 52-session set.

Choose from these session categories: • Spiritual Practices: sessions that help children form habits that connect them with God (such as Silence, Prayer, Unplugging, Worship, Sharing Meals, and Baptism) • Cloud of Witnesses: sessions about our faith leaders (such as Francis of Assisi, John Wesley, Harriet Tubman, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Ruby Bridges) • God Is With Us: sessions about real-life topics and how to see God even when life seems hard (such as When We Are Bullied, When We’re Really Angry, When Someone We Love Dies, When We’re Fighting with Our Friends or Siblings) • Faith and Culture: sessions about how to remain faithful when culture influences us (such as Media Myths—I have to look like the people I see on TV, Anti-Racism—curiosity and empathy, Who is My Neighbor?—the hungry and thirsty) Deep Blue Life will create safe spaces for kids to dig deeper into the stories of faith, to live life faithfully, and to connect with each other and God.

Deep Blue Rotation Stations Rotation teaching is popular, and for good reason!

As children visit a different learning station each week, they explore each unit’s theme story from many angles for deeper, more engaged learning.

Busy volunteers will love using their specialized skills without a huge time investment—they plan once, then teach the same lesson for several weeks to different age groups.

Deep Blue Rotation Stations is flexible—purchase a full unit (seven stations/weeks) or choose any number of individual stations for a shorter rotation.

Each unit includes leader helps and a parent resource. New units available regularly. Makes a great midweek resource! For grades K–5.

Hands-On Bible Curriculum Jesus had a knack for connecting eternal truths with everyday symbols his audience could touch and taste—things like coins and fish. You’ll do the same with Hands-On Bible Curriculum! When “play” turns into “active learning,” you’re teaching in a way that God wired your kids to learn best! With Hands-On Bible Curriculum, you’ll— • Teach as Jesus taught, using unique, tangible objects (“gizmos”) to communicate intangible, eternal truths • Get step-by-step instructions so even beginning teachers can lead kids in making life-changing discoveries about God • Involve all the senses (sight, smell, taste, touch, sound) in exploring what it means to be a friend of Christ • Help kids have so much fun learning the Bible that they can’t wait to come back for more • Use “one-point” Bible learning that’s proven to help kids remember and apply lessons far longer than old-fashioned teaching methods • Share kid-friendly take-home pages and reproducible handouts that extend learning into children’s families.

Learning Labs include Bible Discovery Paks, creative gizmos, CD with music, sound effects, and unique sensory teaching effects. Group Publishing.

Gospel Light Sunday School Give Me Jesus

DVD

Easy-to-use resources help you confidently teach the Bible in relevant and creative ways. Each element engages kids and connects them to trustworthy Bible truths. Fun and meaningful activities, games, student guides, and compelling visual aids make Bible lessons come alive. Gospel Light’s unique teaching method requires less preparation; Teacher’s Guides provide built-in teaching tips, training, and weekly devotionals. Lessons are clearly outlined and simple to prepare. Each week children open their Bibles, encounter God’s Word, and grow in faith. If you use Gospel Light with every age, children will go through the whole Bible four times from nursery age through 6th grade. They’ll learn the Bible in a way that makes sense—helping them navigate life and find their place in God’s story. David C. Cook Publishing.

A new spin on Sunday school

Quarterly, two-year curriculum

Whirl (Classroom Sunday School) Scripture–based lessons with engaging animations that help kids relate the Bible to their lives. This two–year curriculum covers 80 key Bible stories and themes from Old to New Testament. Every Whirl Classroom lesson follows a four-part sequence: Welcome, Hear, Respond, and Launch (WHRL!). Each week, leaders WELCOME kids and invite them to warm up with an activity on the front panel of their leaflets. Then kids watch a video with the Whirl Kids based on a theme that connects them to the Bible story and to real–life situations. After watching the video, kids HEAR the day’s story in their Bibles. Younger kids (Pre-K–Grade 2) use the Whirl Kids Story Bible. Older kids (Grades 3–6) open their Whirl Kids Study Bibles, mark a Wall Chart that helps them identify themes and sections of the Bible, and RESPOND using their leaflets to see how the Bible story is connected to their own lives. Lastly, kids circle up to review the lesson and pray. LAUNCH your kids out with Family Pages—so they can keep the learning going all week long! Summer quarters use the expanded Summer Director Guide which brings kids of all ages together for a fun group experience that spans up to 50 minutes. Sparkhouse.

Building Character and Hope in Kids LOVE IN A BIG WORLD AD HERE CUSTOMIZABLE CURRICULUM THAT WILL EDUCATE, ENTERTAIN, AND INSPIRE!

In todayʼs world, it has become harder for children to understand how to act, and to understand just WHY those actions matter.

But Love In A Big World creates meaningful interactions with caring adults – helping kids develop the kind of positive personality traits that will empower them in everyday life.

Through a flexible and customizable curriculum, it uses relevant and diverse stories, Scripture, and life lessons to teach kids to love God, love other people, and to change the world by acting on that love.

Love In A Big World is a perfect extension to your already-in-place student programming, like your Sunday school classes, VBS, Wednesday night childrenʼs programs, and even summer camp!

We hope to support your ministry by further developing that “whole-child” education everyone desires for their students. Itʼs designed to move kids from risk to resiliency, which not only helps build stronger communities, but also a kinder, more loving world.

Children’s Teacher Resources Goes to the root of ancient Bible truths

Community-based alternative to VBS

Ages 8 & up

Grades 1–5

The Radical Book for Kids Exploring the Roots and Shoots of Faith Champ Thornton

Arts Camp A Creative, Customizable Alternative to Vacation Bible School and Beyond Christina Clark

A fun-filled explorer’s guide to the Bible, church history, and life for boys and girls age 8 and up. Along with examining some of the most exciting realities in the universe, the handbook is vibrantly illustrated and chock-full of fun facts and ideas. Deep truths are communicated to elementary and middle-school aged kids while stimulating their curiosity and sense of adventure within a gospel-centered framework.

This power-packed book is “radical” in the sense of the original meaning of the word, “going to the root or origin.” The Radical Book for Kids will take children on a fascinating journey into the ancient roots of the Christian faith.

But it’s also “radical” in the more modern sense of being revolutionary. Kids read about men and women who learned to trust Jesus and stand for him— displaying radical faith—even when everything seemed against them. It’s also “radical”—meaning fun or cool—in the eyes of a child. Kids read about ancient weapons (and how to make one), learn about jewels, create pottery, discover ancient languages, use secret codes, locate stars, tell time using the sun, play a board game that’s 3,000 years old—and more.

Handbook for Adaptive Catechesis Serving Those with Special Needs Michele Chronister

Beyond Accessibility Toward Full Inclusion of People with Disabilities in Faith Communities Brett Webb-Mitchell

Catechists today are challenged to be mindful of advances in education on the subject of those with disabilities.

These students are beloved by Christ and members of the church. Thus, all the faithful ought to strive to work for their benefit and be open to the giftedness they bring to our faith communities.

Amplifying our Witness Giving Voice to Adolescents with Developmental Disabilities Benjamin T. Conner

Circles of Love Stories of Congregations Caring for People with Disabilities and Their Families Dean Preheim-Bartel, Timothy J. Burkholder, Linda A. Christophel, and Christine J. Guth

Nearly twenty percent of adolescents have developmental disabilities, yet far too often they are marginalized within churches. This book challenges congregations to adopt a new, practice-centered approach to congregational ministry—one that includes and amplifies the witness of adolescents with developmental disabilities. It stresses their intrinsic value and reconceptualizes evangelism to them, emphasizing hospitality and friendship.

Same Lake Different Boat Coming Alongside People Touched

by Disability Stephanie O. Hubach

Jesus’ call to “Let the little children come to me...” isn’t limited to children who sit quietly and listen, raise their hands and wait to be called upon, and work at grade level.

Children’s ministries are responsible for bringing children with disabilities to Jesus’ feet too. This book is the guide for leaders and volunteers to assist in purposeful planning and skill development for a ministry inclusive of children with unique needs. Kregel Publishing.

When the church attempts to function without all of its parts, the body of Christ becomes disabled. Same Lake, Different Boat is a transformational work, designed to renew our minds to think biblically about disability in order that our lives, our relationships, and our congregations might wholly reflect Christ.

Middle School & High School

A Deep Dive into the Story of God Fathom is a Bible study for teens that covers the Old and New Testaments in eighteen 4-session studies. The lessons are a blend of narrative and traditional theological approaches to understanding the Bible story. Each lesson focuses on one passage that will launch into the larger context of God’s story, and how that story is meant to be theirs. Fathom is suitable for groups with middle schoolers, high schoolers, and any combination of the two. Fathom acknowledges the differences between older and younger youth and the way they learn. It provides activities specific to each age group, and gives leaders the option to let youth take ownership of their learning through teaching and leading alongside adults. Fathom creates space and tension for teens to wrestle with how to interpret and experience the Bible.

Through youthministrypartners.com, leaders will have access to planning and teaching tools to support their use of Fathom as well as their youth ministries in general.

Beyond the Screen Youth Ministry for the Connected But Alone Generation Andrew Zirschky

Hollow Faith How Andy Griffith, Facebook, and the American Dream Diluted the Gospel Stephen Ingram

Why are teenagers perpetually connected via social media and mobile devices?

Beyond the Screen explores the reality that teenagers use these technologies in a desperate bid for an intimacy and depth of relationship largely absent from face-toface society and the church. Employing the latest ethnographic research on youth and digital media in tandem with theological reflection and interviews with teens themselves, Zirschky provides a deeper glimpse into the world of teens and social media and gives new direction and directives for ministering to Millennials. Abingdon Press.

9781501810077

Hollow Faith explores themes of moralism, deism, meism, consumerism, pluralism, and therapeutic religion of pop culture, as well as current sociological and psychological data. It separates the values of the gospel from the cultural norms that have domesticated them including: how we believe we should act (The Andy Griffith Show); how we want to be known (Facebook); what we aspire to become (the American Dream). Once we recognize these serious shifts in our faith, we can begin to reclaim the vibrant, life-giving faith of the Bible. Includes a Parents’ Guide in the back.

Book of Fidgets A Jot & Doodle Journal for Christian Youth Josh Tinley and Keely Moore

The Youth Ministry “movement” appears to be doing a lot of retreats and camps, books and seminars, conferences and leadership symposiums—but many youth leaders quietly doubt their effectiveness in reaching and making a difference in the lives of young people. Young people are spiritually apathetic, biblically illiterate, and find the church to be irrelevant.

Youth Ministry shines a revealing light on standard youth ministry practices, helps the reader to see what needs to change, is full of practical ideas that work in real churches, and includes perspectives from current youth ministry leaders. Abingdon Press.

After school and studying and homework, youth don’t want more classwork in church.

This interactive resource gives youth space to jot, sketch, scribble, and be creative— and the freedom to go wherever their brains, and the Spirit, lead them. Includes material for 55 youth group programs plus a host of doodle-centric prompts and sessions related to the seasons of the Christian calendar, cultural holidays, Scripture, and more.

5 approaches to faith formation

Outlines successful character & leadership traits

Youth leader training

The Kaleidoscope Effect identifies the common leadership needs of emerging generations and provides church leaders practical “how-to” solutions for engaging and serving these generations. Based on the research of author Scott Chrostek, this book dives deep into the character and leadership traits of both Millennials and Gen Z. Pastors, lay staff, and volunteers will learn how to steadily rotate their individual leadership skill sets while identifying common leadership needs that emerging generations crave. Abingdon Press. Coming in September. $15.99; $10.71

Within the church today there are five generations represented: Traditional, Boomers, Xers, Millennials, and Gen Z. Each has value and influences the church community, but research indicates that churches are not engaging Millennials and Generation Z for the purpose of making lasting disciples and that a trend of decline has developed. This book equips church leaders with a framework for sharing the gospel in relevant and compelling ways to the emerging generations. Abingdon Press. Coming in September.

A new approach to nurturing faith in teens Confirmation is meant to be a meaningful commitment of faith, but it often feels like an empty ceremony. Confirm, the new United Methodist Church-approved confirmation program, seeks to engage and educate students in a real journey of faith development.

Begin the conversation today!

The Confirm family of resources reclaims confirmation as the first step on a journey that leads to a mature, adult faith. Confirm treats confirmation as more than a decision. Instead, it is the beginning of a conversation about what it means to be a Christian: living out your faith, your commitment, and God’s call.

Confirm is an easy-to-follow and customizable program that can be used in any church setting and with a wide variety of schedules.

You can organize your own confirmation program over the course of a school year, a 3-year span, or in any way that meets your needs—without having to purchase additional content.

With flexible and easy-to-understand materials, Confirm provides students with the basic beliefs of a theologically sound, United Methodist faith while engaging them in creative and thought-provoking activities to help them internalize what they’ve learned.

Confirm also embraces the importance of community in the journey of faith development, and provides materials to encourage cooperation with parents and mentors in the confirmation process and beyond.

New framework for confirmation program

NEW 100 Things Every Child Should Know Before Confirmation A Guide for Parents and Youth Leaders Rebecca Kirkpatrick

NEW Rebuilding Confirmation Because We Need More Than Another Graduation Christopher Wesley

Many youth arrive at confirmation classes without a basic grasp of key Bible stories or Christian traditions. This book helps to fill that gap, offering Sunday school teachers, parents, and adult volunteers a compact guide for equipping their youth with knowledge and understanding of their own faith. It offers an overview of 100 essential topics that all children growing up in the church should learn about, including key Bible stories, church history, the sacraments and creeds, world religions, and more. Each entry includes a brief summary, a suggestion for how to explore this item with children, and ideas for integrating the topic into the child’s overall Christian education.

All too often, confirmation feels like a graduation from religious obligation. In Rebuilding Confirmation, Wesley shares how to reimagine confirmation preparation in new or existing programs so that teens will become active members of the Church.

Learn how to create a confirmation program that is anchored by small groups and parishselected mentors. Discover practical solutions to systemic problems such as having an unclear purpose and treating preparation for the sacrament as just more schooling. In addition, you’ll learn how to recruit and train adult volunteers, work with parents and win their support, screen and select confirmation candidates who are truly ready to commit, and advocate for your program and youth within the wider parish community.

Whether you need a lifeline to lift you out of discouragement or are simply longing for an encouraging boost in your day, this devotional, a sequel to the #1-bestselling Jesus Calling, will speak powerful hope into your life. Based on truths in Scripture, it is written as if Jesus Himself is assuring you that He is in control, that He is good, and that a glorious future awaits all who anchor their hope in Him. Reaching out with peace-filled reminders of Jesus’ Presence from the Word of God, these devotions will intimately, quietly connect you with Jesus, the One who meets you right where you are.

A year’s worth of daily readings Taken from the author’s own journals

Call on Me A Prayer Book for Young People Jenifer Gamber and Sharon Ely Pearson

Jesus Calling: Devotions for Every Day of the Year Enjoying Peace in His Presence Sarah Young

This prayer book designed for teens draws from The Book of Common Prayer, prayers written by well-known Episcopalians, and ancient prayers rooted in the Bible. New, original, and relevant prayers are also offered, some by teens themselves, as well as their youth leaders. Includes: Daily Prayer (morning and nighttime prayer, table blessings); Prayers for the Seasons of the Church Year (blessing of a Christmas tree); Prayers for Daily Life (before a special school or sports event, being left out, peer pressure, bullying, dating, friendship, grief, purpose); and Prayers for Important Events (birthday, earning a driver’s license, Confirmation, start of/graduating school, applying for college, joining the workforce). Morehouse Publishing.

After many years of writing her own words in her prayer journal, missionary Sarah Young decided to be more attentive to the Savior’s voice and begin listening for what He was saying. So with pen in hand, she embarked on a journey that forever changed her and many others around the world.

In these powerful pages are the words and Scriptures Jesus lovingly laid on her heart. Words of reassurance, comfort, and hope. Here is a year’s worth of daily readings, each written as if Jesus were speaking to you, to bring you closer to Christ and move your time with Him from monologue to a dialogue.

Covenant is an in-depth group Bible study in which participants read and discuss the Bible together, learning how to love God—and each other—better.

IO N

S

Each of three 8-episode segments explore a different aspect of Covenant life while examining what Covenant means and the progression of a Covenant relationship with God. Creating

Living

Trusting

Examines how the Covenant community is created and established.

Focuses on how the community lives out their Covenant in faithful love—how it’s applied to actual relationships in everyday life.

Looks at the crises that sometimes call Covenant life into question, and how we are restored to trust in God when troubling things happen.

Covenant represents a relationship—a living, breathing conversation. And we invite you to join in it.

“The Covenant videos are excellent, with high production quality and creativity. The hosts and scholars conversed so naturally while providing significant insight.”

—Melissa Durbin, Christ Church (Episcopal), Winnetka, IL

“Covenant is an outstanding resource— well-designed, accessible, and easy to use. The study’s leader resources and the daily readings distributed from Covenant by e-mail made it easy to prepare for each group meeting.”

—Bonnie Edwards, Director of Adult Education, First Presbyterian Church, Dallas, TX

“The study’s overarching theme of covenant really hit home with participants, allowing them to make connections with scripture and across biblical texts that they had not made previously.

—Eric Johnson, Director of Congregational Education, Hyde Park Presbyterian Church, Tampa FL

CovenantBibleStudy.com Kit. Three eight-week modules, each covering a different aspect of what covenant means: Creating; Living; Trusting. Includes a Leader Guide, a Participant Guide for each module, Covenant meditations, and three DVDs with Implementation Guide.

E SS

It doesn’t get much more dramatic: rescued baby, life in the courts of Pharaoh, parting the Red Sea, leading his people out of Egypt…Moses’ life was one challenge after the next, but although he resisted God’s calling, by the end of his life he successfully fulfilled the role he was given. Join award-winning author Adam Hamilton as he travels from Egypt to Mt. Sinai, the Nile, the Red Sea, and the wilderness exploring the sites of Moses’ life. As Hamilton shares historical information, archaeological data, and biblical text, you’ll gain a better understanding of Moses’ significance in your life today, and you’ll discover how you, too, can turn your own reluctance into boldness. This six-week study offers videos featuring Hamilton, Leader Guide, Youth Study (grades 6–12), and Children’s Leader Guide in addition to the main text. Abingdon Press.

True or false: 1. Everything happens for a reason. 2. God helps those who help themselves. 3. God won’t give you more than you can handle. 4. God said it, I believe it, that settles it. 5. Love the sinner, hate the sin.

All true? Not so fast. We’ve heard these phrases all of our lives, but in Adam Hamilton’s new book, Half Truths, you’ll learn that although they capture some element of truth, when compared to the wisdom found in Scripture, they’re really just popular sayings. The five-week, DVD-based study can be used in small groups or as a churchwide program where adults and youth (grades 6–12) explore the topics at the same time. Youth Leader Guide is also available and can be used with the adult-level DVD. Abingdon Press.

Creed What Christians Believe and Why Adam Hamilton

Churchwide study

6 S

E SS

We’re used to answers popping up on a screen right in front of us. But when the questions examine the truths that give meaning and purpose to life, finding the answers takes more than simply typing a few words and pushing a button. Adam Hamilton believes that powerful answers to many of our complicated questions are contained in the Apostles’ Creed, an early statement of foundational Christian beliefs. In Creed, he explores not only what Christians believe, but also why they believe, and why it matters, which in turn leads readers to confront and examine their own core beliefs and go beyond reciting the Creed’s familiar words. Creed includes the following study components: Book, DVD, Leader Guide, Youth Study Book (grades 6–12), and Children’s Leader Guide, in addition to “I Believe” cards (pkg. of 25 cards).

Stuff. And more stuff. The next thing you know, we’re pulled into the orbit of materialism! In Defying Gravity, Tom Berlin takes a look at the difference between “want” and “need” and illustrates how possessions can create an unbearable weight on our lives. He shows us how too much stuff affects our ability to serve and thrive, and then he helps us explore what is required to sustain a vibrant life. Perfect for a four-week stewardship campaign and small-group study, it features a Leader Guide with multiple format options; a DVD of “Generosity Moments” with uplifting stories of how generosity has changed and shaped lives; a Program Flash Drive or download with campaign guide, handouts, tools, and videos for pastor mentoring and worship; and a Pastor Guide, A Generous Church.

Wesley who? As mature Methodists, the question seems unimaginable, but do our young laypeople know who John Wesley was and what he means to our church? The Wesley Challenge introduces young adults to our denomination’s father in a practical and accessible way through twenty-one questions studied over three weeks. This series is, in fact, a great way for your entire church to renew its passion and discover a deeper commitment to God—one that is more authentic, vulnerable, and soul-shaping—right along with your young adults. Daily posts and messages are designed with an emphasis on graphics and short content bits to engage your physical, emotional, and spiritual lives throughout the 21-day study which offers a book, a flexible Leader Guide, a Youth Study Book, a DVD, and a Wesley Challenge Campaign Package that presents the purpose of the program and the intended outcomes, ways to involve all ages, shareable media for social media and for retailers, promo art and copy, and scalable ideas for launching the program. Abingdon Press. Coming in June.

Renegade Gospel The Rebel Jesus Mike Slaughter

Earn. Save. Give.

Wesley’s Simple Rules for Money James A. Harnish

Who was Jesus, really? Wasn’t the central figure to the Christian faith a man who denied all pre-conceived notions about what God should look like? Wouldn’t associating with him have meant joining a rebel movement? Doesn’t it still?

Renegade Gospel is a church study that challenges believers to come to terms with the real Jesus—the rebel Jesus.

The six-session program is ideal for an all-church Lenten experience and provides leader guides and materials for adult small groups, including a DVD that features author Mike Slaughter. Materials delivering the same message are supplied for youth and children’s studies as well.

Abingdon Press.

John Wesley boils fiscal responsibilities down to just three rules: Earn all you can.

Save all you can. Give all you can. Sounds simple, right? Yes, but not easy, especially in today’s culture of consumerism.
