The curriculum they used is called Our Whole Lives (OWL): Lifespan Education Curriculum.II OWL was developed by the United Church of Christ (UCC) and the Unitarian Universalist Association. A secular model with religious supplements, OWL is used in a wide range of churches, schools, nonprofits, and community centers, though Highlands is the only evangelical church the curriculum’s UCC coordinator was aware of having tried it when I spoke with her.
