If you are curious about the date ranges above, thinking that they might not reflect just a weekend, you are correct. In this example, the church plans lessons beginning on their Thursday night service through their Sunday morning services.
Also, it is worthwhile to mention that this is merely an example of how one church did it. It is certainly not the only way to do it. With our curriculum, you are certainly free to expand a series from four weeks to six. I have had discussions with several churches who tell me the curriculum started up such great conversations in their class that they decided to expand some of the lessons across several weeks.
Finally, we have put together many bundle options so you can purchase a year or more of the curriculum and begin planning, regardless of where you start.
