Teaching Resources

   In a three year period, you will likely have about seventy cell group meetings. We do not have a published curriculuum that each cell group follows. Each cell leadership team developes their own schedule of teachings—through prayerful knowledge of their student's needs. The purpose of these checklists is to help cell leaders consider, evaluate and recognize blind spots as they plan their cell group teaching series.

Jr. High Curriculum (Primary Checklist)

    The "Jr. High Curriculum" provides a list of teaching topics that address specific student needs and includes priority topics selected from the Servant Team Discipleship Checklist. It is anticipated that all of these topics will be covered during the three-year cell group cycle.
    Recommended Books of the Bible are listed for each grade level and have been italicized for easy identification. It is anticipated that at least one Book of the Bible will be covered each year.

Discipleship Checklist (Addresses specific cell group members needs)

   The "Discipleship Checklist" lists all the relevant teaching topics from the "Personal Discipleship" paper provided during the 1999 Servant Team Meeting. 
    It is anticipated that a study of a particular Book of the Bible, "God’s Incredible Plan," or other book, will cover other topics not bolded within the Discipleship Checklist. Priority should be given to cover at least one of the components of the "Law & Grace" topic, as none of these items are specified in the Jr. High Curriculum. However, it is anticipated that not ALL of the topics within the Discipleship Checklist will be covered before the 8th grade students are sent off to High School. The Discipleship Checklist is intended to provide direction, so that cell group leaders may focus on particular topics, to meet the specific needs of their cell group students.

How to Teach Students

At a worker training seminar in 1997, Dennis McCallum gave a presentation on teaching students. This is the paper that accompanied it. This paper will give you real clarity as you prepare a teaching for Jr and Sr high students.
