Scope and Sequence of Curriculum (and Mules!)


      THRU THE BIBLE with BOOT THE MULE is a three-year, through-the-Bible curriculum for boys and girls in Junior Church. The Old Testament is covered in the first two years; the New Testament is covered in the third year.
      One of the distinctives of our curriculum is that the important role of mules, donkeys, and horses in the Bible is naturally highlighted by Boot the Mule. You may notice that we almost always use the word "mule" (for obvious reasons) to describe both mules and asses in the Old Testament.
