Old Testament Overview
Inspiration Deuteronomy 6:4-7 (NKJV) Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. Psalm 78:4b-7 (NKJV) Telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength and His wonderful works that He has done. For He established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children; that the generation to come might know them, the children who would be born, that they may arise and declare them to their children, that they may set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments.

The Grapevine Mission Our mission at is to provide believers with the tools they need to know God s Word and to disciple others. With our teaching method and Bible curriculums, parents and teachers can effectively disciple their children and students so that they are equipped to reach the world with the truth of the Gospel. The Grapevine Teaching Method teaches the Bible as if it were a puzzle, doing the frame first. Once the framework is in place then individual pieces (Bible passages, characters, and events) are much easier to place and understand in the context of the "whole puzzle" (the whole counsel of the Word of God). students study the major characters and events of the Bible in a chronological format to help establish their biblical framework. s study each lesson by reading passages from the Bible and drawing each section of Scripture, using what we at call stick figuring. Stick figuring is using stick figures, symbols, colors, charts, and words to illustrate each Bible passage. This method allows students to interact with the Bible passage and be as creative as they desire. At the end of each lesson a set of review questions is given to ensure that students have grasped the essentials of the passage (the who, what, where, when, why, and how). Application of the lesson is for the teacher to determine based upon prayer, the class, the needs of individual students, and what that teacher feels the Lord has led him to emphasize. Each lesson ends with a Bible memory verse that is related to the lesson. Our prayer is that those who take this journey, both teachers and students, will expand in their knowledge of the Bible and grow in their love for the Lord and His Word. May God bless you richly as you study and teach His Word! ix
The Statement of Faith Bible: We believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative, complete Word of God and is accurate in all historical and scientific references. God: We believe that there is one holy and perfect God, eternally existent in three persons Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus: We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man; in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension, and in His physical return. Holy Spirit: We believe that the Holy Spirit is the divine third person of the triune God, sent to indwell, comfort, teach, and empower the believer, and to convict the unbeliever of sin. Man: We believe man was originally created perfect, in the image and likeness of God, with an unbroken relationship with God. When the first man (Adam) disobeyed God, the perfect relationship between God and man was broken and the curse of sin and death entered all creation. All men are born with this sin nature and only the atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ can remove man s sinful nature and restore the broken relationship with God. Salvation: We believe that salvation (forgiveness of sin against God) is provided only through faith in the life, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ for all who believe, repent, and receive the gift of eternal life. As a result of faith, works will follow. Resurrection: We believe in the resurrection of both the believer (saved) and the unbeliever (unsaved); the believer to eternal life and the unbeliever to eternal damnation. Teacher-Directed Doctrine is pleased to be able to provide Bible curriculum to a variety of denominations. Our unique teacher-directed doctrinal approach provides a platform for each teacher/parent to explain specific doctrines as they arise within the lesson. x
Grapevine Teacher Goals assumes that all teachers of this curriculum will already have a personal and intimate relationship with the Lord, as well as a calling to teach the Word of God. At our goals for teachers are that you will: Learn more about the character of the God you serve and His Word. Be godly examples to your students. Effectively communicate the Word of God to this generation. Instruct only after having spent time in prayer, Bible reading, and study. Have sufficient preparation time for your own study without the need to gather, order, and put together multiple supplies for various activities. Learn along with your students. Grapevine Goals believes that students who are taught using reading, hearing, and drawing will have a higher retention rate than those who are just lectured. We also believe that teaching the Bible in a chronological and sequential format is best for long-term memory and life impact. At Grapevine Studies our goals for students are that they will: Desire to serve the One that all history pointed toward: Jesus, the Christ, the Messiah. Once students become believers, to teach them to know God and live a holy life. See God s interaction and movement through history as He dealt with nations and individuals so that they will be able to recognize God s movement and interaction in their own lives. Have a Biblical framework in place that will encourage and inspire them to study further on their own, and to understand the context of the passages they read in the future. Learn from those who have lived before them.
