Bible – Positive Action Bible Curriculum
             Enjoying God’s Gifts

A key emphasis in this curriculum is establishing students in the Word of God so that they begin to find answers for themselves. While it is important to begin with the factual knowledge of the Scriptures, students need to go beyond this to grow in wisdom and understanding. One of the primary goals of this curriculum is to allow the Holy Spirit to work in the lives of the students to “conform them to the image” of Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29). This includes Bible memory, as well as life application.

Areas of study include:

Noah
Abraham
Jacob
Joseph
Josiah
