Description

This handbook offers Sunday‑school leaders a clear roadmap for reaching teenage boys during the pivotal years when lasting faith decisions are made. Drawing on the author’s decades of experience, it explores the boy’s world at home, in public school, and within the church, showing how each sphere shapes his spiritual journey. The early sections lay out foundational principles and organizational methods that help teachers build classes that are both disciplined and engaging.

Practical tools fill the rest of the guide, from designing weekly Bible studies and hands‑on activities to coordinating inter‑church efforts, conferences, and even addressing sensitive topics such as temperance and sexuality with honesty and care. Special chapters consider the unique needs of rural congregations, community partnerships, and the role of the teen teacher, giving readers a versatile set of strategies adaptable to any setting. By focusing on the “secondary division” as the firing line of the Sunday school, the manual equips educators to inspire confidence, moral strength, and a lifelong love of the Gospel in the boys they serve.
