Real Christian strength doesn’t start in the gym. It starts in the heart.
The Charity Challenge: Becoming a Strong Christian is a 17-lesson teen discipleship curriculum built from one of the most ignored—but most powerful—chapters in the Bible: 1 Corinthians 13. While the world talks nonstop about “love,” Scripture describes something far deeper, stronger, and life-changing. The Bible calls it charity—a supernatural, Christlike love that God places in the hearts of believers for one another within the local church.

This isn’t a study about feelings.
It’s a call to spiritual strength.

Perfect for Sunday School, youth groups, Christian schools, or discipleship programs, this book equips teens to understand and practice the kind of love that builds strong Christians, strong relationships, and strong churches. Teens today face pressures, temptations, insecurities, and relational challenges their parents never dreamed of. What they need isn’t another emotional message about kindness—they need a biblical foundation of charity that stands strong under pressure.

Inside this curriculum, teachers and youth leaders will find:

• 17 complete, word-for-word Sunday School lessons
Each lesson is crafted to fill a 25-minute class period with Scripture, explanation, practical challenge, and meaningful application. Teachers can deliver the lessons exactly as written or use them as a guide to teach in their own style.

• Monday–Friday teacher devotions for every lesson
Before a teacher can pour into teens, God must pour into the teacher. These short devotionals strengthen the heart and prepare the leader spiritually to teach with clarity and conviction.

• Simple, powerful class activities
Each lesson includes an easy-to-run object lesson, illustration, or group activity to reinforce the truth and help teens personally connect with the Bible’s teaching.

• Discussion questions designed for real conversations
Move beyond one-word answers. These guided questions help teens open up, think deeply, and apply God’s Word to their daily lives.

• Practical application points
Clear, direct, teen-focused truths that show students how to live out charity in their homes, friendships, school life, and especially within their local church.

• A strong doctrinal foundation
This curriculum is written from a conservative Baptist perspective, using only the King James Bible, and emphasizing the local church as God’s ordained place for discipleship and Christian growth.

Throughout the lessons, teens will learn how charity:

• Shows patience when irritated

• Chooses kindness when wounded

• Rejects envy and pride

• Controls emotions when provoked

• Thinks with grace, not suspicion

• Finds no joy in sin

• Celebrates truth

• Bears burdens

• Believes God can change anyone

• Hopes through discouragement

• Endures under pressure

• Never fails—because Christ never fails

The Charity Challenge isn’t another feel-good Bible study. It’s a discipleship tool built to strengthen Christian character from the inside out. If your goal is to grow teens who are spiritually grounded, emotionally steady, relationally healthy, and deeply committed to their church, this book will equip you to do exactly that.

Strong Christians aren’t born. They’re built.
And this is where the building begins.
