2015 VBS: ‘Journey Off the Map’

Share this post:

NASHVILLE (BP) — Kids will have the opportunity next summer to explore and discover the adventure of life during a “Journey Off the Map” that is “Unknown to Us, Known to Him” in the 2015 Vacation Bible School from LifeWay Christian Resources.

The description of the 2015 VBS theme invites students to “set out on a journey to uncharted territory where they will encounter the unexpected waiting around every bend. On this expedition of a lifetime, kids will need to stick close to their guide in order to survive. They will discover that Jesus is the ultimate guide on a journey uncharted by them, but known by Him.”

LifeWay’s VBS specialist Jerry Wooley said Journey Off the Map will be “filled with things kids like such as adventure, discovery, cool tree houses, challenging destinations, bright colors and fun music.”

Wooley said the theme’s message is particularly relevant today. “Kids are being bombarded by loud voices telling them what they should do, where they should go, who they should be and what they should believe. The messages are confusing and misleading,” he said.

“[K]ids of all ages, meaning adults too, need to know that in the midst of these voices there is one and only one they can totally depend on,” Wooley said.

Most previous VBS materials were geared to build to an evangelistic lesson later in the week. This year, LifeWay felt it would be better to introduce the idea of a personal relationship with Christ on the first day.

“Since Journey Off the Map is based on following Jesus as our guide, it is necessary to introduce this relationship on day one and build from there,” Wooley said.

The theme verse for the week will be Isaiah 30:21: “And whenever you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear this command behind you: ‘This is the way. Walk in it.'”

Participants will learn to trust Jesus as Savior and walk along the journey of life becoming more like Him as they traverse the adventures in The Overlook Worship Rally, Tangled Branch Tree House Bible Study, Shady Grove Crafts, Boulder Bridge Missions, Rushing Waters Music, Rappelling Ravine Recreation and Survival Springs Snacks.

Each day kids will discover more truths about Jesus as their guide: Day 1 – Know your guide; Day 2 – Follow your guide; Day 3 – Trust your guide; Day 4 – Stay on track; and Day 5 – Keep watching.

The 2015 VBS Jump Start Kit will be available for purchase in early October to help church leaders and VBS directors in the planning and promotion of the event. All other resources will be released in December.

For leaders wanting to experience Journey Off the Map a little early and learn from experts on how churches can best use the materials, LifeWay will host preview events in four locations next year: Ridgecrest (N.C.) Conference Center, Jan. 9-10; Fort Worth, Jan. 16-17; Nashville (three events) Jan. 22-24; and two events in Kissimmee, Fla., Feb. 6-7.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Next summer, kids will have the opportunity to explore and discover the adventure of life during an exciting “Journey Off the Map” that is “Unknown to Us, Known to Him” in LifeWay’s 2015 Vacation Bible School .

Awesome!! Thanks!

October 1, 2014 at 4:51 pm

Having the names of the fonts is helpful, but knowing where I can obtain the fonts would be even more helpful, since I need to have them installed before I can correctly produce printed materials that utilize them. WE might even want to produce extra materials for our VBS so it would be imperative to have local TTF files that support the fonts. Thanks.

October 3, 2014 at 2:30 pm

Hey David, Here’s what I found out from our LifeWay font guy – foundry names for each VBS font: Display fonts Wood Stamp (Foundry: Flat it) Shortcut (Foundry: Misprinted Type) Asphaltum WF (Foundry: Walden Font) Shelton (Foundry: T26) Jawbones Condensed WF (Foundry: Walden Font) KCSTall (Foundry: Juicebox Designs) Pea Natalie (Foundry: Amanda Bottoms) ebmCircArrw reg (Foundry: Edwin Morris) Daniel (Foundry: Daniel Midgely) Rough Typewriter (Foundry: design-tools.com) Tiki Hut (Foundry: House Industries) Body copy fonts Brioso Pro (Foundry: Adobe Systems) Hurme Geometric Sans 4 (Foundry: Hurme Design)

Thanks Patrick! Our LifeWay font guy is looking as well at supplier list to see specifically where we purchased the fonts. If it’s any different, we’ll post it here. Susanne – I’m not sure how to answer your questions. Is there someone in your church or office that look at your specific computer?

October 2, 2014 at 2:27 am

How do I get these fonts to work on my computer?

October 2, 2014 at 4:40 pm

Hey Susanne. I’m not sure how to answer your question. Is there someone in your church or office that can help – who works on your computer?

Love the fonts but still trying to locate them and hoping they are free since there is no budget for purchased fonts for VBS. Can you provide the Foundry link because I still can’t find the fonts Googling Foundry? Thank you.

April 15, 2015 at 2:25 pm

I regret that the fonts are not free. Due to the nature of the publishing business we must purchase the fonts we use.

June 9, 2015 at 12:41 pm

Can you tell me the font used in the Journey Off the Map logo for the student materials (grades 7-12). I could not find it listed anywhere.

June 11, 2015 at 10:35 pm

Thanks for the pdf. My question is what font was used for the PowerPoint song lyrics? Keep up the good work Thanks

June 12, 2015 at 10:49 am

Hey Gene, The Worship Rally PPT used Myriad Pro for the song lyrics. The Admin Guide PPT used Asphaltum WF and Shortcut for headers and Brioso Pro for the body copy. Hope that helps!

January 14, 2016 at 12:06 pm

Hey, any chance you have the font style for ‘Submerged’ anywhere for download, or might be able to point me in the right direction? We’re creating now and just wanted to know if i could get that font anywhere. Thank you!

January 25, 2016 at 8:17 am

Type fonts used with Submerged resources – Houndcats PB (Headers for Preschool and Children), Matchwood WF (Headers for VBX, Student, Adult), Hurme Geometric Sans 4 Regular (Body for all interior copy), Bello Script (this font was only used as inspiration for hand-drawn lettering for t-shirt designs). The word Submerged used in the logo and secondary logos is hand-drawn art and not a font.

Thank you so much!!!
