Youth Curriculum
A supplement to your youth curriculum — from an
Anabaptist perspective
Kingdom Living is a 12-lesson curriculum targeting senior high youth in the Rosedale Network conference. These lessons with an Anabaptist perspective focus on topics that are neglected in curriculum gleaned from the wider evangelical world. The goal is not to replace youth curriculum but to provide supplemental lessons for youth Bible studies.
The 12 lessons are ready-to-go and contain ice breakers, scripture, interaction, and a prayer activity. All the material is in digital form, so youth leaders can simply download the lesson elements (in PDF) and print out the number of copies needed.
