| TRUTH AND TRAINING OVERVIEW T&T BOOKS
booklet received in T&T.
the “ultimate adventure” is a Christian's relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. The individual books are titled Book One, Book Two, Book Three, and Book Four. Book One and Book Two are each divided into eight Discoveries. Book Three and Book Four are each divided into eight Challenges. Each Discovery or Challenge has seven sections, adding up to 56 sections in each of the handbooks. All sections in the T&T handbooks should be passed in order. There are just two exceptions. One is bringing friends to club. The other is the missionary interview. Clubbers can continue working through their books even if these two sections are not completed. Sections may be signed, but an achievement seal cannot be awarded until all sections in that Discovery or Challenge are completed.
Regardless of the age or grade of the child, each clubber will start in the Ultimate Adventure Book 1. Each Handbook consists of: SECTION AWARD DISCOVERIES/CHALLENGES ACHIEVEMENT SEALS HANDBOOK REVIEW TEST * REVIEW CERTIFICATE AND PIN EXTRA CREDIT - SILVER and GOLD SEALS At the end of each Discovery or Challenge there are “Silver” and “Gold” extra-credit sections. A clubber must complete ALL of the Silver or Gold sections to receive a Silver Seal or Gold Seal at the end of the year. Beginning in the Fall of 2007, AWANA has added pins that are worn on the clubbers uniform throughout T&T. Silver and Gold sections may be done in any order. However, a Silver Seal must be earned before a Gold Seal. Silver and Gold sections can be quite difficult. Here are some examples: • Write down 10 instructions received throughout the day, and then find 10 instructions God gives in His Word. • Read and report on a missionary biography. • Make five awesome invitations to AWANA, and then hand them out to friends. • Write a song or poem of praise to God. • Make up a game to help you and others learn the books of the Bible. • Make a list of 20 different names found in the Bible for the Lord Jesus. • Learn how to say John 3:16 in another language. REVIEW Review is central to the T&T program. While the word “review” may not be used, the concept is integrated throughout the handbooks. If you read through an entire handbook, the clubbers are constantly asked to give the questions, answers, and backup verses in some form. This happens in the regular sections and in the Silver and Gold sections. Also, the first section of Book Two is a review of Book One. In addition, certificates and pins are available for clubbers who can recite four questions, eight answers for each question and a backup verse for each answer. That’s a total book review in one sitting! Thirty-two review verses! T&T is a self-paced program. To complete a handbook in one year, it is recommended that a clubber complete 2 sections at a minimum each week. AWARDS When a clubber has completed the requirements to earn an Award, the Award will be issued to them during the Award Ceremony of Council Time. AN AWARD WILL NOT BE ISSUED IF THE CLUBBER DOES NOT WEAR THEIR UNIFORM! What are the awards ?
