1 CURRICULUM SAMPLE TEACHING GUIDE CUDDLE TIME BIBLE STORYBOOK AGES 2-3

2 CHURCH is the primary equipper of parents. PARENTS are the primary disciplers in the home. CURRICULUM D6 connects the church to home and families to one another. D6 curriculum is one of the most effective small group and Sunday School curriculum you can find. D6 is based on the principles of Deuteronomy 6:5-9 love God, love His Word, and teach your children to do the same. D6 Curriculum aligns small group environments at church so the entire family is studying the same theme at the same time. The cool thing is, it doesn t stop at the church worship experience. This one of a kind discipleship curriculum goes beyond the small group experience and helps parents and grandparents reconnect with kids and teens through the use of devotional study guides, Splink, Home Connection, and other take-home resources that help equip the home. D6 Curriculum helps prepare families to make a generational impact. Jennifer Burks Crosspoint Church Trussville, AL WHAT IS A FAMILY? The family is not always an ideal set of parents and kids all doing what God intended. The Bible shows adapted models of generational discipleship. The often quoted and normal secession of teaching flows from father to son and on to grandson as seen in Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. There is not always a godly father or mother as evidenced in Mordecai teaching his niece Esther. Or Paul mentoring Titus, his adopted son in the faith (Titus 1:4). Notice how Timothy s faithful mother and grandmother seemed to carry the whole spiritual parental influence. Regardless of your season of life, God can use you to teach someone in your family or sphere of influence by way of friendships and connections. Models of how Family Ministry Worked in Scripture Models of how Family Ministry Works Today Intended Abraham Isaac Jacob Adapted Mordecai Esther One-Parent Eunice Timothy Adopted Paul Titus Intended Dad & Mom Son & Daughter Adapted Grandparent Grandchild One-Parent Mom Child Adopted Church Member Child without spiritual parent Ron Hunter Jr. Executive Director and CEO Preparing the next generation results in preparing the current one. You know the reputation of D6 and the commitment we have to helping you build believers through church and home. As you walk through the pages of this sample guide, you will discover like thousands of other teachers and churches that the real win occurs when you involve the home in what the church is doing. The fraction 1/168 reminds us that the average student gets only one hour a week in discipleship we say (as does Scripture), It s not enough! D6 curriculum gives you solid lessons for teaching your students how to make wise biblical decisions about everyday life. Then it further helps the parents (and grandparents) reinforce your lessons while at home. See how the teaching guides (at church), devotional study guides (at home), and parenting tools (bonus items) help you implement the most comprehensive discipleship strategy. 2

7 D6 IS DEUTERONOMY 6 Deuteronomy 6:5-9 (ESV) You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise... You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY Each day they read their Devotional Study Guide (the family is learning the same theme all week) My preschool friends and I study one of those themes for a month. We need more time. WHERE TO USE D6 CURRICULUM LARGE GROUP/SMALL GROUP: D6 curriculum can be utilized in a variety of instructional formats. For those that use a Large Group/Small Group setting, a master teacher can introduce the principle and teach the lesson by covering the Connect, Learn, and Explore segments in the Large Group. The Apply, Respond, and hands-on activity can be effectively done in the Small Group. LIFE GROUP: D6 curriculum is designed with your educational program in mind. The curriculum follows a seven-day cycle, but that cycle can begin whenever you need to fit with your Life Groups. If your Life Groups meet midweek, that works just fine. Even if your Life Groups meet at different times in the week, a schedule can be customized to keep everyone on the same page. Home Connection lets parents know what each member of the family is learning in the D6 curriculum. FREE Weekly packed with ideas to connect with your kids SUNDAY SCHOOL: D6 curriculum works seamlessly with traditional Sunday School, but with the added bonus of having the entire family kindergarten through grandparents aligned on the same biblical theme each week. This provides greater emphasis on application and response to the principles of the lesson throughout the week, and parents are better equipped to be involved in the discipleship of their children. 7

Timeline In Every Teaching Guide ELIMELECH moved to Moab SAMUEL BORN 1100 BC * condensed chronology End of MYCENAEAN GREECE Beginning of GREEK DARK AGES NAOMI AND RUTH return to Israel Biblical Worldview With every lesson we ask In light of what we studied, how then do I make decisions about life? (How do I approach dating, marriage, children, money, relationships, etc.) D6 DOORPOSTS KEY PRINCIPLES THAT FRAME A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW The Bible is God s Word. God is a personal, spiritual being. God created the universe and everything in it. I am a special creation of God, with an eternal soul. I am engaged in a spiritual warfare. Sin brought death and destruction into the world. Bad things happen because the world is a sinful place. I cannot save myself, I need a Savior. God offers salvation and forgiveness through faith in Jesus Christ. God established the home to make disciples and transfer the faith. God established the church to make disciples and transfer the faith. Jesus Christ is the Sovereign Lord of all. d6family.com We use the D6 Curriculum as a strategic part of our effort to equip parents to be the primary faith trainer in their homes. The content and commentary of the lessons are intentionally driven by the Scripture. This trains our parents to have the Word on their own hearts. The additional resources provided with the D6 curriculum equip our parents to impress these truths on their children. I don t know of a better curriculum for intentionally connecting church and home in the context of weekly group Bible study. Brian Stone, Generations Pastor, Katy, Texas 8
