Write Upon My Heart
Christian Character Building Curriculum
Begin developing character today!
Perhaps you’ve tried other programs that study character; we believe that character training should go beyond study; it should develop character! It should Write Upon My Heart!
The difference between a Christian character curriculum that studies character and Christian curriculum that develops character is so vast yet so subtle. Studying character helps us to know in our head what we ought to be. But character comes from the heart. Luke 6:45 says, "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good;” and Proverbs 22:17 adds, “. . . apply thine heart unto my knowledge."
How do we get the knowledge from the head into the heart, where it becomes character, where it becomes lifelong habit, where it unifies with Christ? This requires more than knowledge. We must add Scripture. We must exercise the trait and analyze our performance. We need a schedule to follow. We must allow sufficient time to make good behavior habit.
Write Upon My Heart was revised, honed and child-tested repeatedly with these goals in mind. It will do all three! With an individual, inexpensive training manual for each character trait, the child will be not overwhelmed by an entire array of life changes to make, nor feel rushed to move to the next chapter. The idea is not to “cover material,” but to change a life carefully and methodically, one obstacle at a time.
Each character booklet contains:
- Scriptures regarding the trait to be learned
- Bible examples of the trait
- How Jesus lived the trait in His earthly life
- Practical lessons on the trait
- Instructions in developing the trait
- Stories centering on the trait
- Poems involving the trait
- Practical applications and more!
- A thirty-day journal to schedule and record one’s progress.
Change a life—one trait at a time! Write Upon My Heart can be used by children individually, in Sunday school, in the classroom, during family devotions, or for lesson times at Keepers of the Faith clubs! It is truly character-building.
Recommended ages are eight through fourteen. They can be used with younger children with parental help.
