It All Starts the Same Way
Whether you choose our new Head
to the Heart journals or traditional Head to the
Heart,
you start the same way: an annual Head to the Heart membership,
based on your congregation’s Average Weekly Worship Attendance
(AWWA).

Head to the Heart Home Journals
These beautiful and popular journals help you connect
what goes on at confirmation with regular faith dialog at home. As
an H2H member, you qualify for a $10 per book member's discount
and a 50% rebate on your church's annual membership fee. These
journals can also replace the standard H2H Thought-Time sheets,
saving you time at the copy machine each week. Part or all of this
book resource cost may be moved from church budget to individual
participants and their families. (In fact, to increase the family's
level of commitment to the home faith dialogue process, we highly
recommend that you consider doing just this.) Check out all the
details about this important supplemental resource using the button
to the left.
No Changes to Our Simplified Membership Pricing
We've kept membership rates and the popular 50% membership
rebate program for H2H Living journal purchasers, exactly the
same as last year. We've also kept our simplified pricing structure,
so there is only one membership rate for each average weekly worship
category. No more fiddling around with "New Members" vs. "Renewing
Member" or "Basic Membership" vs. "Unlimited Membership."
Every Membership Is an Unlimited Membership
Because your H2H membership gives you access to all
of our lessons (now 90+ lessons strong), you have maximum flexibility
to teach what you want when you want. In addition, many churches
are, with just a few tweaks, making great use of their H2H resources
for other groups too, such as Sr. High and adult education. They're
your resources for the year - use them to their fullest!
New Theme Sets
Real-world, youth-relevant options, including: "Hot
Topics" (examining sex, drugs, war, God & science, stewardship,
and more), and "The Life of Jesus" (expanding our Old and New Testament
work for a deeper encounter with Christ's life and his call in
their lives). We've also developed and expanded lessons on Martin
Luther, Lutheran worship, Wesley, Calvin, and Christian vocation
and calling. Traditional catechism or practical life issues - we've
got you covered like no one else.
QuickPick™ Teaching Suggestions
Strapped for time? Our new QuickPick™ teaching
suggestions help you streamline your preparation by highlighting
our favorite Images & Analogies for each lesson to quickly prepare
for a 20- to 30-minute presentation.
PowerPoint® Presentation
Overhaul
Our PowerPoint® presentations are loaded with
full-color art, cartoons, and engaging Flash® animations. The
PowerPoint® resources included in other confirmation programs
pale in comparison.
Movie Clip and Music Illustrations
All of our lessons include fun "Media Mix" teaching
options that offer ideas for incorporating a DVD movie clip or
secular/contemporary Christian song into your presentation. Suggested
movie clips can be easily found at your local video store, and
most of the songs can be quickly downloaded from a music site like
iTunes®. These movie clips and songs speak the "language" your
kids speak and teach them something at the same time. (Use at your
own discretion.)
Full-color He Qi Art and Melheim Cartoons
Every lesson contains stunning thematic artwork by
award-winning Christian artist Dr. He Qi. This art is not just
window-dressing. Each lesson kicks off with a beautiful image that
tells a powerful visual story about the lesson's Bible passage.
Our cartoons have also been enhanced and "pop" of the page (or
screen) in color.
Bible Verse Music
The Faith Inkubators' Music Guild recently updated
and replaced more than half of the theme songs to help your kids
learn and remember Bible verses with rock, hip-hop, Gospel, folk,
contemporary country and more. Use the included PowerPoint® karaoke
format or recreate the songs live using the available sheet music.
