Why use our Lectionary-Based curriculum?
Here are just a few of the many benefits:

… Less work for you, the Director of Christian Education! We’ve refined the sessions so that you can provide leaders with the tools they need to lead effective, age-appropriate, engaging sessions.

… Less work for your Leaders! We’ve significantly streamlined the session plans and reduced prep time, while continuing to offer meaningful, focused lessons. Fewer materials to gather; less time spent reading.

… Participants of all ages experience scripture in new ways thanks to our new ART ENHANCEMENTS! We’ve incorporated fine art, great music and outstanding literature into every session, opening fresh windows onto the Sunday readings. New Poster Packets and an Enhanced CD make the experience multimedia. Plus we offer opportunities for participants to respond through art as well.

… Participants gain greater exposure to “things LUTHERAN”! We honor the rhythms of the Church year, the creeds and prayers of the Church, the use of the Revised Common Lectionary, with sessions for Lutheran festivals and commemorations.

… Family connections! Both At Home with the Good News and the weekly take-home papers (for Nursery through Intermediate levels) bring the Sunday readings home. Week after week, parents get concrete suggestions for exploring session themes with their families.

… Congregation connections! Everyone hears and experiences the same scripture stories—in the liturgy, in Christian education classes and at home. The entire congregation unites around a common immersion in the Sunday readings.

… Just plain fun! Children, teens and adults discover their story in the story—God’s faithfulness to God’s people—through fresh, innovative and colorful sessions, as delightful to lead as they are to experience.

 

 

“We have tried other curriculums, but the Living the Good News lectionary-based approach helps our children more deeply hear the scriptures during our worship service.”
