What an invaluable resource:
I have recently purchased the book Not the Same Old, Done-it-before Youth Meetings by Tim Ferguson. I picked up the book the day of Tim's book signing. My purpose for purchasing the book was two fold:
• Tim is a member of my church and I wanted to support his endeavor
• I planned on thumbing through it and perhaps pick up some ideas to aid me in teaching Sunday school.
Little did I realize what an invaluable Christian youth resource this book would become to me. As I was looking through the book, I realized how it tied in with our curriculum (I teach the 6th, 7th and 8th grade class). The best part of it is the concrete examples and the step-by-step lesson plans that I just have to follow. I use this book, the Bible, the curriculum and a book on parables and I have one solid, exciting curriculum. Tim did all the work and I just have to follow the lessons he prepared. Currently, we are making our way through Who Do You Say I Am? The kids are interested and so am I as I hear their feedback and their understanding of who they think Jesus is.
I cannot wait to use some of the Christian youth lessons and awesome activities Tim has put in the book. I think this would be a great addition to any Sunday school as well as Christian Youth program.
