Christian Educators' Guide to Evaluating and Developing Curriculum

A practical handbook for pastors, lay leaders, and Christian education committees who need help choosing a curriculum that suits their church’s beliefs, practices, and membership. For some congregations, no preprinted materials will do—and this guide offers the tools you need to write your own curriculum. Includes a step-by-step process for evaluation of existing materials and creation of new resources!
