As a Sunday School Association, we are often asked to recommend Sunday school curriculum materials. It has been our policy not to recommend specific materials. But, there are a few suggestions we can give you to help you evaluate the materials you are using or a prospective curriculum. The Bible is the Christian's handbook and guide. Sunday school materials that try to teach without using the Bible just won't work.
Christians face the same problems and temptations as everyone else.
Having your students prepared to face those problems and temptations should be a primary concern in your Sunday school. Good materials will help you apply the Bible to your life situations. Each denomination has their own traditions and special ways of interpreting the Bible and Christ's teachings. Although most lay persons don't want to be concerned with the many theological differences that separate the denominations, we still should be careful that the things we are teaching in our Sunday school class are compatible with the teachings of our church. Good discussion is one of the keys to a good class session.
