Sacred Space: A Hands-On Guide to Creating Multisensory Worship Experiences for Youth Ministry (Soul Shaper)

In a culture where teenagers are growing up inundated with images, experiences, and media that moves and changes at the speed of light, it’s no wonder many of them learn better when they’re doing something― not only listening to someone talk to them. Sacred Space provides dozens of ideas to help students engage in scripture and apply the lesson to their own lives. Whether you’re looking to teach a biblical theme, the life of Christ, or a gospel passage, or even when celebrating holidays, you’ll find step-by-step instructions to create the space and experience necessary to draw your students into the story. Through art, listening, writing, and multi-sensory prayer stations, your students will experience God’s Word in a whole new way. This is more than a toolbox for your ministry―it’s a holistic way to approach teaching and communicating God’s Word. Inside you’ll find everything you need (except the actual supplies!) to create experiences that can transform the way your students encounter God, and help them engage in and learn from the Bible in more meaningful ways. Includes CD.
