Part of the South Pacific Division Year 9 syllabus, this textbook helps students enter into Jesus' world more vividly. The student text has been written from the viewpoint of a boy called Jarod who meets Jesus the preacher. As Jarod notes the reactions of powerful personalities to Jesus' teachings, he also notices how real love works and how to live a positive and practical life. Each chapter contains a range of activities for students that accommodate the various modalities of learning. Also, accompanying the student book is well over a hundred pages of teacher helps with overhead projector masters, work sheets, Bible study sheets for specific passages in Matthew, and extra resources. This is to be seen as a resource guide rather than a document to be exhaustively followed from a - z. Thus one can choose the type of activities that best suit particular styles of teaching or student groups.
