Why are parents crucial in discipling a teen?
Scripture is clear that parents are the primary spiritual leaders of their children. We've designed Parent's Guides to go with all of our Trek® and Journey™ studies so the material doesn't just stop in your youth room, but heads home to the kitchen table. Scripture-focused, gospel-centered curriculum is the cornerstone of our ministry.

What should parents know about Awana?
Sixty years of experience in youth ministry has provided Awana® with invaluable lessons, skills and wisdom from which to draw. Awana Youth Ministries has been delivering phenomenal youth ministry resources and improving on them for decades. Grasping the great experience and traditions of the past, we remain committed to not changing our message, but being relevant in our methods.

We know that true disciples are developed over time and there are no shortcuts. Everything we provide is created to intentionally support you in discipling your student for the long haul.
