Room 207 | Breakout 1 | 1:00 pm 

Audience: Administrators, Teachers

The Israel Course session presents a great introduction to the very comprehensive and incremental 20-lesson curriculum and instructor’s guide specifically designed for private Christian schools, home school associations, and Christian high schoolers across the nation. The session gives an overview of the curriculum lessons that will cover subject matter from the biblical reasons to support Israel as a Christian, understanding Jewish and Israeli culture, to the history of Israel and the Jewish people, the modern state, what to expect on a college campus, and more! The Israel Course presentation will engage the audience and inspire them to take the course both as a major subject or as an elective to a group of high school students across multiple grades. The audience will find the course to be an excellent resource for providing valuable biblical context, and important information helping students gain a proper perspective on current events in Israel and in the middle east. As a result, the audience will find great understanding Israel’s biblical history which is very crucial to thinking accurately about what is happening today, and the Israel Course session will effectively meet that objective as the attendance see the course’s layout, the way it is developed and how the flow of information progressed through the material, and how it handled the topic of Israel clearly in a comprehensive fashion.
