Unit 11 Overview

(SCROLL DOWN TO DOWNLOADS)

We all have disobeyed God. We have all lost the wonderful special closeness with God that He meant for us to have with Him. No matter how hard we try, we can’t ever be good enough to win back special closeness with God. No, we can’t save ourselves, but God can. That’s why He sent Jesus: to save us as a free gift from Him. Anyone who says sorry to God for their sins and trusts in Jesus as their Savior, He will forgive all their sins. God will give them special closeness with Himself right now. Then one day, He will take them to live with Him forever. This is the free gift God offers to you and me. God is so kind to us!

In this unit we will learn three truths about this wonderful, free gift God offers us.

TIPS FOR USING THIS CURRICULUM:

Here are some tips that will really help you fit our curriculum to your needs.

1. This is the Works:

This section contains FULL DOWNLOADS of curriculum, just like the hard copies available through amazon.com. Looking for just a story or a particular, single resource? Go to Deep Down Detectives Bits and Pieces.

Few other churches choose to use all of the curriculum as we use it at Capitol Hill Baptist Church, because we have created enough curriculum to stretch 3 hours each Sunday (Sunday School and Church). You may feel easily overwhelmed.

2. Take the Tour:

Look at this section from the Praise Factory Curriculum Tour to get a good sense of what is offered in this curriculum and how it is structured, were you to use it as the lesson plans suggest (structure of every class is the same… learn it, once and you’ve got it down.) Deep Down Detectives Tour

3. Follow the Stars:

Also, notice that within the lesson plan, there is a simple, basic lesson mapped out for you with stars next to these key elements. Many people using the lesson plan have found the stars just what they need.

4. Use Bits and Pieces Instead:

I would strongly encourage you to choose Bits and Pieces a la carte downloads instead of these full curriculum downloads. Bits and Pieces allows you to download just what you need. If for some reason you find you want to use most of the curriculum as ordered in our lesson plan, then these full unit downloads may be useful to you. Bits and Pieces has instructions about how to helpfully choose what you need. I would suggest looking at that first. Go to Deep Down Detectives Bits and Pieces.
