In 12 sessions, this book engages with everyday issues, from gossip to sibling rivalry, and looks at what the Christian message is for these themes. Mixing it up with The Simpsons uses extracts from episodes to help your youth group connect with key Christian beliefs in a contemporary format – from Lisa the Beauty Queen (issues of self-image) to Homer and Barney (the importance of friendship) – with an introduction to the book covering all you need to consider in terms of health and safety, child protection, and how to handle the aspects of The Simpsons that are not always very godly.
Mixing it up with The Simpsons is split into two parts each with six sessions: Part One is for those who are newer to church and Part Two is for young people who have been coming to church for a little longer.
The book follows episodes from Season 4 of The Simpsons and it is useful to be able to show the episodes along with each session.
No DVD is included with this book.
