Spirit Life Middler Teaching Guide / Fall 2026

Each quarterly guide includes 13 biblically accurate and thorough, age-appropriate lessons.
Each lesson begins with a Focus activity to tune students’ hearts to welcome God’s Word.
The Discover section of each lesson presents the Bible story in a translation-neutral narrative with vocabulary suited to third and fourth-grade listeners. Studies also get Middlers using their Bibles with references to look up and discuss.
Each lesson concludes with a Respond section, inviting students to respond to the Holy Spirit in applying the lesson to their own lives.
Each section also includes Enrichment Ideas–alternative approaches to reach the lesson goals in ways that appeal to a variety of learners.
