Description

This semester long student text introduces students to the Bible text before jumping into the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, as well as Jesus' followers. Students will gain a working knowledge of what the Bible is, a brief but detailed history of the Biblical text, the difference in Bible translations (this study will utilize the KJV exclusively). Moving from the logistics of Biblical knowledge, the meat of the text is on the Gospel stories of Jesus. Each story is outlined according to how each gospel writer approached the Jesus encounter. Since each gospel writer presents different perspectives regarding Jesus: Messiah, Servant, Man, God, the encounter is going to highlight Christ in that specific view. Filled with vocab, maps, images, and contextual history students are provided a thorough understanding of who Christ was and what it means to be a follower of King Jesus. There is an index located in the back and some sections have discussion questions. 185 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca

In Abeka's classic spiral approach, Grades 9 & 10 lays a biblical foundation with a year-long look at the Kings of Israel and the Old Testament, and then a year-long look at Bible Doctrines and emulating a disciple of Christ-like lifestyle. Grades 11 & 12 offer a number of semester courses: Life Management, Jesus and His Followers, Genesis: First Things, and Book of the Revelation. The lessons each take approximately 30 minutes and are designed to be done 4-days a week. The Teacher Edition book is a full text and will outline the curriculums schedule for the year. These plans incorporate suggested hymns to sing, memory verses to study, and clarify which lessons you are teaching. While not scripted, the instruction is very thorough and will be an added benefit to structure your time while studying the Bible.

Each course has a midterm and final exam, plus additional quizzes. All this material is located in the Student Quiz and Test Book. The test booklet provides your tests, review worksheets, test schedules, and grading rubric. The Quiz and Test Key provides all the answers to the unit's quizzes, test, and exams. ~Rebecca
