Bible Story Handbook: A Resource for Teaching 175 Stories from the Bible

How do Sunday school teachers lead children through the stories of Cain and Abel or Judas's betrayal in a way that reflects the authority of Scripture? Sunday school curricula often gloss over difficult lessons or focus too much on characters in Bible stories, neglecting God's self- revelation in Scripture. John and Kim Walton have created this handbook for 175 Bible stories to assist teachers and parents in knowing what each story teaches and how to present it in a God- centered way. As they work their way through the Bible, the Waltons examine seven elements in each story: focus, theme, application, place in the Bible, interpretational issues, historical and cultural background, and mistakes to avoid. The Bible Story Handbook includes introductory articles on why we teach the Bible and right and wrong ways to use the Bible. Every parent and Sunday school teacher will find this unique resource to be invaluable in teaching children to know and love God.
