Product Description
Okay, so they used mule mail instead of e-mail -- but they were still surprisingly modern men and women. With emotions, decisions, and dilemmas as raw and real as the students sitting in front of you every week. David and Rahab, Daniel and Ruth--even with their rough edges, they passionately loved Jehovah in a way today's adolescents can understand and emulate.

Here are 12 Old Testament character studies, including--
- Believe it or not -Abraham: Living by faith is not for wimps
- Faith overcomes a fast past -Rahab: What you live is what you believe. Everything else is just talk. - The waiting game -Joseph: Trials and temptations can make us strong.
- Benchwarmer to first string -Moses: Often God uses the least likely person to do great things.
- Right woman, right place, right time -Esther: God has created each one of us for a purpose.
- Keeping promises -Ruth: Commitment means more than saying the right words.
- Bad days for good people -Job: Suffering may be the condition from which humans benefit the most.
- The long way home -Jonah: Sometimes we simply say no to God. 

And to help you teach the lesson are clips from easy-to-get videos . . . games for mixing and games that teach . . . in-depth, ready-to-use questions guaranteed to spark small-group discussion . . . original role plays, scripts, dilemmas faced by these ancient but very human believers in their Yahweh. For youth workers, Sunday school teachers, and CE directors, Creative Bible Lessons from the Old Testament will help your students understand that the God who offered hope and courage to ancient history-makers still does the same for teenagers today.
