  1. The Sabbath School Experience

  2. The Four Emphases of Sabbath School

  3. The Sabbath school was developed to teach the gospel of Jesus Christ in response to the command of Jesus, and in the setting of the three angels’ messages. In loyalty to this original purpose the Sabbath school continues to communicate the good news with the objective to win, hold, and train for Jesus Christ, men and women, youth, boys and girls, in all the world. This objective is carried forward through the following four areas: faith emphasis, fellowship emphasis, community emphasis, and world emphasis” (Seventh-day Adventist Encyclopedia, p. 1258).

  4. Fellowship

  5. Fellowship “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” (Heb. 10:25, NKJV).

  6. Fellowship “If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin” (1 John 1:7, KJV).

  7. Fellowship “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord” (Col. 3:16, KJV).

  8. Fellowship + Exhorting Teaching Admonishing Fellowship

  9. Outreach

  10. Outreach Witness Service

  11. Outreach “Disinterested Benevolence” “That person who is actuated by true disinterested benevolence is a partaker of the divine nature.” (Testimonies for the Church, vol. 2, p. 534)

  12. Outreach There is need of coming close to the people by personal effort. If less time were given to sermonizing, and more time were spent in personal ministry, greater results would be seen. The poor are to be relieved, the sick cared for, the sorrowing and bereaved comforted, the ignorant instructed, the inexperienced counseled. We are to weep with those that weep, and rejoice with those that rejoice” (Counsels on Diet and Foods, p. 458).

  13. Bible Study

  14. Bible Study “There is no such thing as getting through with the lesson”(Counsels on Sabbath School Work, p. 116).

  15. Bible Study = +

  16. BibleStudy “It is necessary to exercise more than reason to come to a true knowledge of God” (Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, vol. 6, p. 1003.

  17. Bible Study Why do we neglect the affective aspects of learning? 1. You can discuss a question or issue without commitment. 2. There is a discomfort with any kind of emotion in our modernist subculture. 3. With strong emphasis on doctrine, it’s easy to conclude that truth is solely intellective. We get caught up in an atmosphere of proof, debate, facts, etc.
