Judges is a very thorough chapter-by-chapter study with very minimal omissions. The book of Ruth is a verse-by-verse study with no omissions. 223 pgs, spiral-bound. ~Rebecca

Publisher's Description of Investigating God's Word at Home Volume 5
Investigating God's Word at Home Volume 5 Joshua, Judges, Ruth
It's an overwhelming responsibility. Life is busy and many things distract us from having those meaningful conversations and equipping our children to experience God by studying His Word. John Kwasny understands. His resources equip parents to share their faith with their children and encourage meaningful discussions that are grounded in deep theology.
God's Word teaches us that the home is to be the primary location of the discipleship of children. As parents, we are called to teach the Scripture to the next generation and to engage with our children in discussions about what it means to love God and embrace Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. With eight children of his own, Dr. John C. Kwasny understands the struggles parents face.
Category Description for Investigating God's Word at Home
The Investigating God’s Word at Home 14-volume set will guide families through an overview of the Biblical narrative, making note and touching on every book found in the canon of Scripture. Some mature content has been excluded from intentional scriptural study, but you and your family can make the decision to include these verses and stories. Books that are lumped together in one volume will generally be centered around the same biblical theme, i.e., minor prophets, Torah books, poetry, or those found sequentially in Scripture. There is not study material covering Psalms, Proverbs, or Song of Songs. Following the volume order of use is suggested, as the Drill Time review section can pull from previous lessons.
The approach is to impart knowledge through good, intentional,
and interactive discussion. Each volume contains everything needed to guide
discussion through the course. Every lesson is fully scripted to facilitate
discussion.
Each lesson is broken into 5 different areas of learning and is designed to last a week:
- Opening is a time to prepare with a question or a reading from Psalms or Proverbs. It calls participants into a time of scriptural study.
- Drill Time functions as both trivia and instruction time on previously covered material and other Bible knowledge. This section provides a great way for you as a parent or leader to assess how learning is taking place.
- W.O.W. (Word of the Week) introduces and builds Christian vocabulary. These words may be words that will come up in that lesson’s readings or in your local church setting.
- Bible Investigation is the meat of the Bible study lesson. Passages of Scripture are provided in the guide to read from (in the ESV translation). Scripture is broken up into manageable portions with discussion questions alongside the included readings, providing students with the structure to investigate, observe, interpret, and apply what the Scriptures say.
- Scripture Memory is self-explanatory: you end each lesson with a challenge to memorize Scripture. Keeping a Scripture memorization chart can help the whole family see their memorization progress.
These books are designed to be the teacher's guide but can easily be passed around so everyone can take turns reading and leading discussions. Students might find it helpful to have their own Bible (even if it is a different translation) and a journal to document their thoughts and answers during the discussion. This is truly designed to be a whole family or group-based time with conversations tending to flow within small groups and learning happening all together. ~Rebecca
