What's in the Bible
Anne's suggestion of the What's in the Bible DVDs is right on.
There are 13 in the series.
They are a bit breathless as you might imagine, but Phil Vischer does a good job of hitting the high stories, and teaching the golden thread that runs through each... i.e. God's Plan for Redemption.
That said, plowing through the Bible in a year is a huge task that will leave much behind. Rotation Modelers like myself, have a knee-jerk reaction to that along the lines of "more ends up being less". Practically speaking, half your kids probably won't be there for half your lessons. And the other half will need a minimum of two or three lessons per story just to really REMEMBER them. It's the conundrum the gave birth to the Rotation Model.
So here would be my challenge:
Find and primarily focus on teaching "the golden cord" running through every story you propose to teach in one year. If you focus on story details -changing the story every week, instead of the focusing on the golden cord, half your kids will never hear or remember these details anyway.
Re: The golden cord.... Here's how I would put it: "What has God done for us, and what can we expect from God? And what are we like, and what does God expect from us?"
Jesus was once asked a similar question and he said "Love God, Love your neighbor". For our teaching purposes, to each of his phrases I would simply add, "why" and "how".
Please let us know how you do with this!
