Essentials Bible Study

Another resource we have for students in your youth group is  Journey, Essentials. This  version of the Student Bible Study is recommended for students who have just started their walk of faith or are only beginning to understand some basic Biblical concepts. This book trims the content from the Student Bible Study into two quick pages per week and offers you the flexibility to lead your whole youth group in the same lesson at a customized level for each student.

Parent Guides

The Parent Guide, is a free digital download which allows parents to continue to engage their students at home. We believe it is extremely important for both parents’ and the youth leader to be involved in guiding a student spiritually.
