Head to the Heart Confirmation
2024-2025
You don’t need a better workbook, you need a better way.
Head to the Heart™ 2024-2025 is an integrated approach to confirmation ministry.
More than a program or curriculum, Head to the Heart™ (H2H) intersects the head (knowing God’s promised story) and the heart (living God’s story). This intersection is the very center of our baptismal promise. The H2H faith formation system weaves in critical thinking, a system of care, and creative faith practices while growing connections in Christian community.
The H2H system includes:
Access to all 100+ themes/lessons
(Of course, no church can teach all the lessons in a year. Choose which you’ll use for confirmation and then you are free to use others for retreats, camps, Sr. High ministry, or even adult education or worship.)A full Leader’s Guide for each lesson with teaching ideas, instructions and tips for leading the PowerPoint presentation.
Each lesson includes printable Handouts for youth, small peer group Guides, and parents. Print as many copies as you need each week.
“QuickPicks” — Are you in a in a time crunch this week? We’ve collected our favorite teaching options from each lesson—we call them QuickPicks—and have assembled them for you in this “grab-and-go” format. An accompanying QuickPicks PowerPoint file that matches these suggestions is also available for each lesson.
