From Borrowed Belief to Owned Conviction - Middle School Workbook

From Borrowed Belief to Owned Conviction: Middle School Your child is starting to hear the hard questions from friends, teachers, and the internet. They deserve real answers. From Borrowed Belief to Owned Conviction is a four-part series that takes children from toddler to teen, equipping them with real reasons for real faith. This volume is designed for middle schoolers. It meets them at a stage when curiosity sharpens, peer pressure starts to build, and questions about faith begin to come from outside the home as well as inside it. Across 18 topics, students take on the biggest questions about God, the Bible, Jesus, and the world around them. Each topic gives them room to think for themselves. A game-based exploration page, with word searches, scrambles, crosswords, and mazes, reinforces the key ideas. A reflection page asks what they actually think, not what they're supposed to think. "What Would You Say?" sections help them put their faith into their own words. Each topic closes with a parent page that offers background, Scripture, and conversation starters for going deeper together. Topics include: What caused the universe to exist? If we can't see God, how do we know He's real? If God is good, why is there evil? Why does God feel silent sometimes? Can we trust the Bible? Did Jesus really rise from the dead? Multiple studies show that a significant percentage of children raised in Christian households leave the faith in their twenties. This workbook exists to change that, one honest conversation at a time. Part of the From Borrowed Belief to Owned Conviction series.
