Bible-in-Life Overview

Bible-in-Life lessons are sound, easy-to-teach and are designed to impact every student that is entrusted to your care-from the littlest ones to the most mature! And as the name implies Bible-in-Life helps each student put Bible truths to work where it counts-in their everyday life.

Here's why teachers love David C. Cook Bible-in-Life, it:

Is Bible-based and Christ-centered
Is easy-to-teach and easy to prepare
Recognizes life needs of students and reveals biblical and practical application
Incorporates teaching methods to developmental abilities of each age group
Enables teachers to reach every student according to the individual learning styles

Teachers love the Four-Step Learning Plan because it's designed to mirror the compelling approach that Jesus often used.

Jesus started where His students were.
Jesus shared life-changing truth.
Jesus explained how His truth applied.
Jesus called for action.

The Four-Step Learning Plan follows a similar pattern:

Step 1: Motivate
Connects your students' life experiences (work, home, school, etc.) to the Lesson Focus and gets them interested in the topic.

Step 2: Learn the Facts
Presents the Bible story and gets students into Scripture.

Step 3: Practice
Provides a variety of opportunities for students to practice the information they've just acquired.

Step 4: Apply
Encourages students to apply what they've learned to their everyday experiences.
