I’ve got some questions lately about the teaching series that you can get at SimplyYouthMinistry.com, so I thought I would talk about how they’ve helped me save time as a teacher.
- First, thing that sets them apart is that they are almost all downloadable. I love that. You can get it right away, without having to wait for it to get shipped to you. This can be huge is you are short on time. Also you can also download the first week of all the series so you can get a good feel for it before you buy which is so important.
- MP3’s of the lessons. I love starting with the MP3 of the lesson that I’m teaching. I really helps me to start thinking about the lesson. It also means I can begin my prep as I’m driving around town, taking the dog for a walk, or mowing the lawn. Anywhere I’m at with my iPod and I can start the lesson.
- Electronic outlines. Since it’s downloadable and the outlines are in Word, I can start with the existing outlines and add in my own stories and notes without having to start from scratch.
- Presentationt is done. It also comes with all the powerpoint slides already built. I usually use Keynote so I just save them out as jpgs and drop them in and I’m ready to go. Not only are the easy to use, but the graphics always look great, way better than I could do myself.
- Games. The powerpoint games that come with a lot of the series are great. I love to use them as openers.
If you haven’t taken a look at Simply’s series before, watch this video that shows what else is included (I’ve only covered some of my favorite parts).
As a bonus right now they are all 20% as downloads (till March 27, 2009).
