7th and 8th (LifeWay Character Quest)
Character education is a topic of
discussion in both Christian and public school throughout the country. Noting the importance of Character education in our entire society, William Kilpatrick, professor at Boston University
said:
“None of us wants to go to untrained doctors, or fly with untrained pilots, or have unstrained soldiers protect our country. But for some reason we have come to believe that one can be a good person without any training in goodness.”
This curriculum clearly teaches that God's Word is the basis for true character. 7th and 8th grade students over the course of two years will be introduced, study, wrestle, and be given practical application with over 36 character traits! Character is not inherited, it just doesn’t happen. The Bible teaches us, “...discipline yourselves for the purpose of godliness.” 1 Tim 4:7
