Description / Abstract

The students in the curriculum and instruction classes at APNTS have worked diligently to create discipleship materials for youth ministries in the Asia-Pacific region and perhaps beyond. We are offering these materials to the local churches to be used and reused. There are two main goals of the curriculum: leadership development and a grasp of the metanarrative of the Scripture. It was felt that adolescents and youth know many Bible stories but they do not have an understanding of how those stories fit together in the overall biblical message. Thus, the curriculum is arranged chronologically through the Bible and the timeline activity in each session will assist the participants to see the connection of the biblical persons’ stories with one another. Also a major concern among young Christians is leadership development. Thus, a leadership characteristic was selected for each biblical person and the weekly study focuses on that characteristic. A journal is to be kept by the young persons each week showing their reflections on their Bible study and their growth. The journal and the biblical timeline are two crucial activities in each session to accomplish the objectives throughout the curriculum
