The next post below features our comprehensive outline of the SunScool Bible App's lesson presentations.

Our outline follows the order of stories as they appear in the App's menu.

However, unlike the App's story menu which changes depending on the age level you have selected, our comprehensive outline shows you all the stories in all four age levels, and the story titling variations between the age levels.

The outline below is also SEARCHABLE across all four age levels so you can find a story based on its keywords or scripture citation.

We've also created specific Christmas and Holy Week outlines so you can quickly find where certain stories are found in the app and at what age level.

This outline took many hours to create and is only possible because of the generous spirit of our Supporting Members. If you appreciate helpful and unique resources like this one, support our site's work by becoming a Supporting Member today.

Outline of SunScool's Christmas Bible stories
~ organized by Bible story ~

This supplemental outline was drawn from our main outline but it organizes the presentations by scripture passage so that you can find your story and then see which part of the app's 3 Christmas menus it is found in, and at what age-level (story availability and titles changes from level to level).

For example...
All four age levels have a lesson on Matthew 1:18-25, The Angel Visits Joseph, but...

• In Levels 1 and 2, the Angel visits Joseph lessons are found in First Christmas: Part 2.
• In Level 3, the Angel visits Joseph lesson is in First Christmas: Part 3.
• In Level 4, the story of the angel visiting Joseph is found in First Christmas: Part 1.

(The lesson index does have a Search feature, but it doesn't search across all four levels, only the one you're in.)

These issues are likely due to how the app was expanded over time and the fact that they didn't imagine a teacher wanting to search all four levels for a particular story. We've suggested they tweak their search feature and menus, but until they do, this outline is here to help.

Outline of Holy Week lessons found in the SunScool Bible App

We created our own comprehensive listing of all the Palm Sunday, Last Supper, Cross, and Resurrection stories found in all four levels of the SunScool Bible App.  We did so because the App's menu splits up its stories of Holy Week across many different sub-menus, some of which appear or don't appear depending on which age-level you have selected (L1, L2, L3, or L4). We know, however, that a teacher with younger children (Level 2 kids) can easily adapt to a story only found in Level 3, so it's helpful to know WHICH LEVEL has the story you want to teach -- and this guide does that!

How to use this listing:
Pick the Holy Week story you want to teach then scan our outlineto  see what lessons are available in the app in all four levels. Then go to the app, select the age level your story is located in, and scroll down to the Menu's sub-section to find the story you want to use.
