"I was working on my Sunday School lesson last night and saw your email.  What a wonderful program you have put together!  I purchased it, and it appeared on my screen right away.  I have a student who is so excited to be learning the books of the Bible in order.  I found your “Books of the Bible Descriptions” and am so grateful to have this teaching tool. It is perfect to serve as a content guide and timeline for events and characters.  I like the clear and concise way it gives an overview of each chapter. I printed it out immediately and it will help me in getting a better grasp of the basics of each chapter, as well as a directory to help look up answers to questions about each Book as we move forward.

Thank You so much for your dedication to our Sunday School students, teachers, children and grandchildren, as well as for your enormous love of the Bible and your willingness to share your knowledge. We will enjoy exploring the Bible with you!"

- Sheryl S.

• Teaching Grades 1-8: Learn how to create an engaging classroom environment for Grades 1-8. This age group is eager to learn facts & history about the Bible so it's vital to set them up with as much knowledge as possible to create a solid foundation as they grow up. This section offers insights into how to engage this age group through sample lesson plans, Bible concepts to study as well as an “Idea Box” of about 12 activities that have been successfully used by Kathy Merrill for over 30 years. Each activity includes an instructional video & subsequent worksheets that help teach Bible history to these kids. Examples include "Discussion Questions," "3x5 cards" and "Bell Ringer."
        * included for only the "Grades 1-8" & "All Age Bundle" courses 
  
  

• Teaching the Bible to Grades 9- 12 (and above). Teaching older students can feel intimidating, but one key to success is relating the Bible to the challenges they face in their daily lives. Now more than ever, our youth are confronted with malicious and aggressive misinformation. To make the Bible both accessible and relevant, it needs to “come to life” as a source of answers and guidance, helping them navigate the difficult challenges ahead. We provide worksheets, prompts, and charts to address the tough questions this age group faces and to help them develop the skills to think critically and defend themselves mentally.
        * included for only the "Grades 1-8" & "All Age Bundle" courses

   
• Library for All Ages:  Massive library that includes "The Geography of the Holy Land Presentation," "The 10 Commandments Presentation," Bible Characters A-Z (about 40 characters), Bible History 101, Bible Maps 101, Bible Timelines 101 & Flashcards. 
        * included for ALL Courses

• Resources for Grades 1-12: A collection of Kathy’s personal teaching tools, including charts, worksheets, handouts, and diagrams, designed to help children develop critical thinking skills around Biblical concepts. Topics include "The Mental Courtroom," "The Tabernacle," and "Loving Others," among many others. These resources are ideal for children over the age of 7 who can read and write, as many exercises encourage self-reflection and written responses.
        * included for all except the "PreK-K" course

How do I access this online course?

Once you purchase, you will immediately receive an email with login information and instructions on how to access each module.

How long is the online course?

There is no "time limit." Because of the type of material that we are updating each course almost weekly, the course is meant to be a complete Resource with the idea that you go to over and over and keep reusing. There is not time limit and there is no real linear structure. The course is ideally a huge "treasure trove" of resource material.

How long do I have access to it?

For as long as you want. Access is unlimited and available 24/7.

Is this all online only?

Yes all the videos and materials are online and accessible through our online course platform. We offer 100's of PDF Handouts that are always available to download for your personal use.

What is the course layout?

This course is unique because we are offering all of Kathy's techniques, strategies, activities and ideas that she has used throughout her lifetime to teach all different ages. Therefore the course is not "linear" in it's format. It is intended to be a great "library" of ideas that someone can go back to and use again and again. There are hundreds of PDF's for handouts and Kathy offers small videos on how she would use what she's sharing. 

With this unique format in mind, the course also is constantly being updated with more content and ideas throughout this next year. If purchased, all participants will receive a weekly or bi-weekly email that communicates the updated content to each age group.
