Nonviolent Followers of Jesus:  The Golden Thread

The curriculum Nonviolent Followers of Jesus:  The Golden Thread is for children Pre-K through 6th grade. Through immersion in this curriculum children learn the language of Gospel nonviolence. While becoming acquainted with current and past Nonviolent Followers of Jesus the rich creativity of Gospel nonviolence is opened to children. A life long conversation with ever deepening potential begins. Grounded in sacred Scripture the conversation addresses the troublesome justification of violence and the practicality of good–mercy, empathy, compassion–overcoming evil. Junior high, high school and even college-level study builds securely on this solid foundation. 38 short biography booklets are available for the cost of printing. All other printable parts of the curriculum are downloadable at this website. Some manipulatives must be hand made. Directions are available.
