Creative Junior High Programs from A to Z (Volume 2)

This jam-packed, junior high sensitive assortment of thematic programs communicates life themes in imaginative, exciting ways.

What Junior Highers want to know. . .about prayer, about temptation, about violence—and 10 more subjects—is all here in Creative Junior High Programs from A to Z, Volume 2 (N-Z). If you liked how the programs in Volume 1(A-M) jolted your junior highers into active, get-up-get-moving sessions, then you're ready for what's inside: more Bible studies, games, stories, role plays, skits, videos (some of which you can create), discussion triggers, and off-site activities—all wrapped around these A-to-Z themes: nerves, rejection, violence, outsiders, school, worry, prayer, temptation, xed out, quarreling, unity, yearbook, and zeros. Have fun prepping and teaching these sessions yourself, or hand them off to a volunteer. Each program begins with a Big Idea (a clear, succinctly stated theme), relevant passage of Scripture, a materials-needed list, preparation tips—and then on to creative, active, and just plain fun learning. More of it, in fact, than junior highers are used to associating with God. Which is the point of this topical curriculum: God's not boring, and neither are Creative Junior High Programs from A to Z.
