WHAT MAKES OUR PRETEEN CURRICULUM UNIQUE?

Preteens are unique. They need—and deserve—their own ministry curriculum. Here are five important ways our custom curriculum meets preteen needs:

1) Preteens are beginning to think for themselves.  

Preteens are asking deeper questions about life and faith. They need space to wrestle, wonder, and work toward an authentic, personal faith.

2) Preteens are in transition.  

They're constantly changing—cognitively, socially, emotionally, spiritually. Great curriculum embraces these rapid transitions instead of resisting them.

3) Preteens are ready to own their faith.

Preteens can personally connect with God. They can develop real habits of prayer, worship, and Bible reading—discovering how faith fits into their own daily lives.

4) Preteens need a coach, not just a teacher. 

They don't just need to be told what to believe. They need leaders who guide, encourage, and equip them to put faith into practice themselves.

5) Preteens learn by doing.  

Preteens are hands-on learners. Our curriculum is loaded with fun-tested games and activities that help them experience faith, not just hear about it.

 

A New Chapter

PreteenMinistry.net was launched by Nick Diliberto in 2008 with a heart to meet the growing need for age-specific preteen ministry resources. Under Nick’s leadership, this ministry grew to serve thousands of churches around the world.

Today, PreteenMinistry.net is entering a new chapter under the leadership of Sean Sweet, who helped to found FourFiveSix.org WITH Nick in 2008.

Sean is excited to continue the mission to serve preteens with curriculum built just for them—and honoring the legacy of those who came before.
