Course Description
This course is designed to help young people grow in their knowledge and understanding of the Bible. Each class will be uplifting, encouraging, informative, and age-appropriate for students.
The course will introduce students to important Bible passages, people, events, and principles without placing an overwhelming amount of work on them.

By the end of the course, students should be able to:
  1. Understand the main Bible truths taught in each class.
  2. Become more familiar with important Bible passages.

Class Format
Each class will include:
  • A Bible lesson

  • Practical lessons for young people
  • Opportunities to ask and answer questions
  • Assigned homework after each class (reviewing the previous class), using Google Forms.

The review questions are not intended to be overly difficult or time-consuming.
