Are your preteens ready to practice spiritual disciplines on their own to deepen their relationship with Jesus and strengthen their faith in God?

Preteens are ready to not just hear about Spiritual Giants in the Bible, but they are ready to take their own steps towards becoming Spiritual Giants themselves.

STEP UP gives your preteens a chance to STEP UP their walk of faith, learning and practicing Christian disciplines with 52 engaging weekly service plans.

STEP UP has been used as a prerequisite and compliment for preteens who want to be in the Team Ion Leadership Program.

Each Lesson has 4 Key Components:

01: Warm-Up

Preteens play an Opening Game and get a brief overview of today’s lesson topic.

02: Bible Time

Preteens read through a passage of Scripture on their own and consider what God is showing in the passage.

03: Lesson

  • Preteens discover spiritual disciplines that will help them draw closer to God. They’ll discover the Biblical basis for these disciplines, the purpose and benefit of these disciplines, and the reasons why Christians have practiced these disciplines throughout history.

04: Practice

Preteens move into "Quest" time as they practice, right there in your class, different ways that they can grow in their own personal relationship with Jesus.

"We are loving StepUp already! Thanks for such a rich, challenging, and age-appropriate resource to use with our students."

- Emily B. | Ministry Leader in Illinois after 2 lessons

"We started StepUp with our 5th graders. It's so good, and exactly what we were looking for. I can't tell you what a blessing all of this curriculum has been to us. It definitely plays a huge part in the numerical, but most importantly spiritual, growth of our group."

- Amanda M | Ministry Leader in Tennessee

"This is a great way to get the kids who regularly come to go deeper into the Bible. StepUp sets kids up to eventually be in our leadership program."
