Publisher's Description of Understanding the Faith Teacher Manual (5th)

The Understanding the Times curriculum series provides your school with the most comprehensive biblical worldview course ever created. Effortless to prepare, easy to teach, and fascinating to learn, teachers and students will love your school's Bible hour when you use Summit's Understanding the Times series.

In a time when more than half of all Christian students walk away from their faith in college, no other curriculum is more urgently needed. This series transforms student learning and faith.

Understanding the Faith teaches the basics of the Christian faith and shows students how to defend and promote the biblical worldview against a myriad of detractors.

Watch your students faith mature as they become more invested and engaged through Summits Understanding the Times worldview curriculum!

Ideas have consequences! For more than fifty years young Christians have been trained by Dr. David Noebel and Summit Ministries to understand the times, to recognize both the ideas that permeate our world cultures and their consequences as well as the appropriate biblical response. Now co-authored by Dr. Jeff Myers, the course has been revised and expanded into a series in 2016. Understanding the Faith is a survey of biblical faith and Christian apologetics that features key questions/issues to address when defending and sharing personal faith with an unbelieving world.
