But other [seeds] fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

Galatians 5:22-23 teaches us that the fruits of the Holy Spirit are patience, love, joy, faithfulness, gentleness, goodness, kindness, longsuffering, and self-control. How do we teach children to apply this and other truths in the real world? How do we nurture who our children are in Christ in light of who they are perceived to be in the world? "Nurturing Christian Character through the Black Experience" is designed to give children an opportunity to increase in ministry while learning the experience of people of African descent across the globe.
“Nurturing Christian Character” is presented in a read/question/answer format. Using it effectively will produce more than simply the right answer; this series provokes thought regarding the larger life lessons that each story holds for an adolescent lay minister. This is the perfect opportunity for a student to develop a notebook, lapbook, or by some other means, to journal his findings about the story, and about himself.
Designed for ages 10 and up, this product features 9 of the best historical fiction and non-fiction books currently available. Your child will meet such captivating characters such as Paulie, who is torn between her Haitian home and her dream of freedom in the United States. Then share the excitement of Joshua Loper, an 11-year-old who leaves his mother to "be a man" on his first ride as a Black cowboy after the Civil War. You'll partake in the pain, the fear, and the triumph of Melba Patillo, who stood in the face of pointed prejudice and harsh criticism from Whites and Blacks alike as she entered Central High as one of the "Little Rock Nine". Finally, meet Sahay and Rahel, the Ethiopian Christian and Ethiopian Jew, respectively, who learn powerful lessons about life and each other in their journey from a land torn by famine and war.
