In "Journey through the Word," Jim Davison and Sara Covin Juengst explore great themes that appear again and again across the pages of the Bible. This insightful study for adults is designed to be accessible to those with little knowledge of the Bible, while providing new approaches for understanding to those who have long experienced reading the Scriptures. Special features of this study include the careful coordination of themes with the periods of biblical history, from creation through the early church, and the identification of key words for each theme. Suitable for individuals and for small and large groups, the study concludes with suggested lesson plans for each chapter. The study is further highlighted by lesson plans that include multi-sensory exercises to enhance learning experiences and ideas for using the book so that studies can cover as many as six, eight, or thirteen weeks.
In this highly accessible biblical study, Sara Covin Juengst writes on images of the road found in Scripture and explores their implications for the Christian spiritual journey. Juengst examines contemporary issues like risk-taking, uprootedness, loneliness and change, all in light of what it means to be 'followers of the way' in what many see as a post-Christian era.
Sara Covin Juengst believes that Protestant churches have failed to provide the church teacher with basic knowledge about the Bible, theology, and doctrine. Because the quality of religious education is determined by the quality of its teachers, religious illiteracy has soared. Juengst proposes an innovative teacher-training course, and provides plans for teaching biblical background, basic beliefs, and teaching techniques.
What is it about a garden that has such strong attraction for so many of us? In this beautifully illustrated book, Sara Covin Juengst answers this question as she explores the way the metaphor of the garden is used in the Bible. She looks at how the various garden images are used to convey ideas of God's providential care, our responsibility to steward the earth, the discipline of the Christian life, what it means to bear fruit, and the harvest waiting for us in the "new heaven and earth." She also discusses ancient gardening routines, such as plowing, planting, and pruning, to shed light on the significance of the symbolism used in biblical passages that use these images.
What kind of language and images should we use to communicate faith to children? How can we translate theological abstractions into concrete realities that make sense to children? This book provides insight into the stages of children's mental and spiritual development in order to enable us to share faith with them in appropriate ways.
