An engaging and experiential confirmation curriculum, built around the image of the Great Tree. We climb the tree of Christian history together, rooted in scripture and the great mysteries of the early church. We discover the various branches of belief and practice, and ultimately where we belong.
During 36 years of ministry, personally leading some 500 young people into profession of faith, Steve developed and constantly refined his very own curriculum. Now he wants to share it with you. To get it into as many hands as possible, he offers it as a gift — a free download to anyone who would like it, with a print edition on Amazon. If you end up using it, you can make an optional donation.
