I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.

Your middle schoolers will love the games and activities that accompany every lesson. They will also come to understand how the Bible applies to their life as they discuss the weekly content with their teachers, fellow students, and parents.
Teachers will appreciate how easy it is to use this curriculum and feel at peace knowing that all the major topics will be addressed. They will be well equipped to cultivate critical thinking and adapt to multiple learning styles through a variety of media formats.
Parents will see a difference in how their kids think about God and apply scripture to their lives. They will appreciate that this program equips them with weekly takeaways that will keep the conversations going deeper throughout the week.
Cultivating Seeds of Faith is built upon an intentionally planned framework to teach middle schoolers who God is, His great love for us, and how to trust and obey Him in real-life situations.
Encompassing 6th through 8th grades, this three-year curriculum instructs students in the fundamental elements of Christianity while developing their ability to think critically about our world using a Bible-centered approach.
Our middle schoolers benefit from the program by adopting a biblical worldview during this critical stage of development. They will be well equipped to actively engage in their high school ministries in the future.
Scatter What Matter lessons are arranged to promote Biblical literacy, including how to navigate, read, and think critically about Scripture. Much of the content is built in multi-media formats, which gets the students mentally stimulated well beyond what is possible with lecture-style teaching.
A PowerPoint presentation is included with each lesson to draw in those who are visual learners and ignite the imagination, which studies show improves memory activation. Most slides contain primarily pictures to ensure that they augment the teacher and minimize distractions.
The lesson document includes references to indicate which slide corresponds to each part of the lesson. These components are designed to enhance the lesson and provide flexibility given different classroom set ups and technology access.
"The typical American will die possessing essentially the same worldview they had at the age of 13," according to George Barna, "so the rest of the of us who do [have a biblical worldview] have to come alongside these children in some way. We've got to look for opportunities, sports teams, other kinds of activities that are taking place to help them shape [their worldview]."
This curriculum has been in the works for several years, and hundreds of middle schoolers have already been equipped with biblical fundamentals.
