Only me Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm not really sure what I'm looking for but I would like to study the Bible with my two youngest (10 and 13). I'm looking for a combination of light memory work, verse application, devotions and Bible stories. We haven't done a lot in this area so even though my oldest is in 8th grade I would like something more on the level of my 5th grader. Any suggestions?

Harriet Vane Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Explorer's is a solid inductive Bible study: http://www.explorerbiblestudy.org/ I also wonder if you might like the kids' Bible study books from Kay Arthur's Precepts ministry.

laughing lioness Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I highly recommend Memoria Press' Christian Studies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loesje22000 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I agree that Christian Studies could be a great choice. I like it very much. Our child is younger (and English is a foreign language to us) so we work with Bible Truths (BJU). It's very easy going I think, but that's no problem to us (not all subjects have to be tough ;-) .) Bible Truths has less writing, and more creative excercises I tought, but I do only know the first years of it. Esther (B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriedClams Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 We have used Rod and Staff for 2nd - love it but no application. We used Explorer's for a week and returned it - too light and easy for my 2nd/3rd grader (she told me it was too easy). We're now using CLE bible and I doubt we'll ever switch. It's absolutely fabulous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debbielong Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I love Christian Studies! The program will be easy for your children, but lays a great foundation. If you go to this website, you can see how each lesson is laid out. http://www.memoriapress.com/descriptions/ChristianStudies.html Click on Sample Lessons, and you can view the inside of the book.

Carol in Cal. Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 It's outstanding. It's written for Lutheran schools toward the conservative end of the spectrum. Maybe look at the 6th grade level for your two. Buy two student workbooks, a memory book to share, and maybe a TE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
