05THEOLOGICAL REVIEW
Scripture first,
by design.
Beyond Sunday was developed to help children understand core Christian beliefs through Scripture, explanation, discussion, practice, and review.
It focuses on truths broadly shared across Bible-believing Christian traditions rather than trying to settle secondary denominational debates.

READER PERSPECTIVES
THE WORKBOOK,
IN THEIR WORDS.
I like this Beyond Sunday book a lot. It answers simple but very profound questions in a clear and concise way. What I really like is that a lot of the lessons are questions the kids have already asked me, or things that I feel like they don’t fully grasp but are foundational to strong faith.
