The Core Curriculum for children between the ages of 9 and 11 includes 48 individual lessons to help develop the children spiritually, as they learn about God’s love, His promises, and simple theological concepts in order to live as responsible Christians. Ultimately, the children will be able to demonstrate commitment to the Lordship of Christ and reflect on a Christian worldview in thinking. Lessons include stories from both the Old Testament and the New Testament, focusing on “I Know that God is True,” “What is God Like?,” “God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit,” “God is Creator,” “Sin Separates Us from God,” “Why Did Jesus Die for Me?,” “God Created Me in His Image,” “God Created Us to Worship Him,” “Serve One Another in Love,” “God Cares for His Creation,” and “Holidays” as lesson unit content. Each lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner.
