Oracles, Curses, and Risk Among the Ancient Greeks

I really liked the activities they had for your family to do in this book. It went through the New Testament chapter by chapter. I used it alot when I was teaching the 15 yr. olds in Sunday School. It doesn't have as many things for Primary age kids, but I think it would be great for family Home Evenings for 8 years and above on any subject or chapter in the New Testament. I haven't read the other books of theirs for the Book of Mormon or D&C, but I intend to get them.
