The New Testament in an Hour!

This lively and interesting lesson gives a visual, written, and spoken opportunity to expose the student to the different sections and individual books of the New Testament. Interesting memory aids based on the floor plan of an imaginary house are used to help students recall the names and order of books. By the end of the class, the teacher will lead the students to recite the books of the New Testament forwards and backwards as they mentally walk through the floor plan of the imaginary house.

Look in the Book:  
Students continue reading in John 12 and 13. Stories and topics include:   Jesus is anointed, Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey, Jesus shares the Passover meal with the disciples for the first “Lord’s Supper,” and Jesus predicts Peter’s denial of Jesus.

Discover it Daily:  
Students are encouraged to teach “The New Testament House” to someone. This can reinforce the order of the books of the New Testament in their minds as well as interest others in what the student is learning. Students will read about the birth of Jesus, “The Sermon on the Mount”, the names of the 12 disciples, and “The Parable of the Prodigal Son”.
