The acronym AWANA is taken from the Bible and it stands for "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed."

While the Apostle Paul was in prison in Rome, he wrote a letter to his young friend, Timothy. In 2 Timothy 2:15, Paul encouraged Timothy to study the Scriptures as an "Approved Workmen."

Timothy was a faithful Christian who lived about 2,000 years ago. He had a godly mother and grandmother who trained him to love the Lord. On the Apostle Paul's second missionary journey, Timothy served as his companion and helper. He later became a dedicated teacher and preacher of God's Word.
