Inject adventure and excitement into Bible Study for teens: family devotions, youth group, school settings. Gain a deeper love for God’s word through a thirteen-unit companion to Shepherd, Potter, Spy—and the Star Namer. Immersed in the events of Joshua 9-10 and events of the Israelites’ last year of desert wanderings (O.T. Numbers-Joshua), read the holy text more closely. Add points of interest to a map of Canaan and visualize the historicity of Bible events. Follow internet links to reinforcement opportunities. Look at archeological evidence. Compare and contrast reader’s life with the Late Bronze Age. Through YouTube, learn two ways to sling a sling stone, cross the flooded Jordan River in a kayak, and explore the ancient border of Moab in the narrow 300-foot deep Arnon River Gorge’s raging waters. Short writing assignments inspire and motivate the student to read more and learn more.
Peggy Miracle Consolver
Peggy Miracle Consolver, author of Shepherd, Potter, Spy--and the Star Namer (2015) and its companion study guide Digging Deeper Into HIStory (2016), treasures time spent with children. From being a teenage assistant Girl Scout leader and camp counselor to having annual summertime cousins camps for her own grandchildren, she delights in conversations with children of all ages. After thirty-five years teaching Sunday school, children have been the primary focus of her stories. Known for "her delightful insight into the ways of children," the idea for Kacey's Question...Who Will I Marry comes from two identical questions asked by two five-year-olds, twenty-five years apart. The first from her own curly headed daughter, and the second from her daughter's son. Admittedly, she had no answer ready the first time she was asked, "Mommy [Grammy], who will I marry?" She lives in Texas.
