7th/8th gr. Review/Recap 1/12/22

7th/8th gr. Axis Guide Sheet: Review/Recap                                                       1/12/22.

This week’s objectives…

1- Highs & lows from break. Share any new year goals/hopes? 

2- Recap/summarize what we've covered from the Old Testament so far (Genesis-Kings).

Use the Takeaways & key verses from each topic night. How would you summarize the Old Testament narrative so far? For example I would say, 

"God is the source & sustainer of creation. God created humans to be in relationship with God. Humans make that relationship hard, regularly stray/wander from God, face consequences for doing so, & then are guided/brought back into right relationship with God. And the cycle repeats." 

     +What are the biggest questions/wonderings kids have so far? 

     +What has stuck with them? 

     +What do you want to know/explore the most about the Bible?

3- Check in about mentors. 8th graders hopefully are set, 7th graders will be newer to it as last year we encouraged families to take the mentoring season. 

Mentoring will take place Mar. 2 – Apr. 6 & details/outline are on the blog, popyfm.blogspot.com/p/mentoring

Guides/families lease let me know who needs a mentor/needs help connecting with one.

 

Bible talk:

-          Revisit each book introduction page in Colaborate Bibles (Genesis, Exodus, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Kings, Ruth & Esther). Any favorite books? (Joshua was the first book of the Bible I (Brent) read beginning to end.
