10 lessons · Juniors
This set of ten lessons begins with Creation and tells the stories of Genesis to Abraham.
Dear Juniors,
Congratulations and welcome! You are now ready to start your second year of junior books. This year we're going to start at the beginning - at least as far as Genesis tells us. You will be exploring some pretty exciting ideas. At the same time, you'll be visiting with some of your most favorite stories of the Old Testament.
We'll start with Creation. Twinkling stars! Blooming roses! Yipping puppies! Croaking frogs! The awesome God of the universe created all of the living things around you! Not only did God create the stars and the planets, and the plants and the animals, He also created men and women. Imagine the power and imagination that did all of that!
In lesson three, you're going to learn why we keep the Sabbath. Here's a hint: God did.
Next you will learn about the wickedness of men and women. You'll find out that it didn't take very long for men and women to become so bad that God was ready to destroy all living things from the earth. But He found one man and his family that He wanted to save.
Because of that, you will get to go on the ark with Noah, his family, and all of the animals. You'll learn things you never knew about traveling on the ark. And you will talk about rainbows and God's promises.
In lesson nine, you will learn about the Tower of Babel. This is where you will learn why there are so many different languages spoken in the world.
Then we'll finish this book talking about God's friend, Abraham. Wouldn't you like to be known to everyone as God's friend? Why did God call Abraham His friend?
As you work through each lesson, you are going to learn about the people and the things that happened way back then. But you are also going to find out why it is important to you today. That is why it is very important to read each lesson and do the activity before you go to Sabbath class. It means a lot to YOU!
It really is going to be an important and exciting voyage! We're really glad you are going to be going with us! Are you read to start?
