I’m tired of having to edit the history books we use because of anti-Semitism or a worldly perspective. These sound like just what I’ve been looking for!
Because we only recently started learning His TRUTH.Having a Torah based perspective history will help us ALL learn as a family
Entering!
Neat choices! Love the books!
We want to learn biblically accurate history and see how we can incorporate learning history with our love for YHWH.
I have All Through the Ages and really like it. I especially love the timeline as there are so many differing timelines online. It’s nice to have it in one convenient spot. I also have loved her book recommendations.
So much of what we learned about history in school was twisted and one-sided… even from our churches! I would love to see history from a Hebrew perspective, with the history of the Hebrews intertwined with the timeline of the rest of world history. It would make the Bible come alive so much more!
Very interested in hearing more about your program!
Oh my goodness, I love Christine Miller’s books. We have All through the Ages, and The story of he ancient world. I love that we can use them and our Bibles side by side.
We have been learning history chronologically since a few years after we began homeschooling over 20 years ago. We went through a biblical history cycle every few years and they became seeds that were dormant until we began to study the Torah. I have a middle schooler and a high schooler and I would like to take them through it once again before they fly the nest so I’m sure they have a good understanding of how history connects to the Torah.
History from a Torah perspective becomes meaningful as you realize Yahweh is in control and everything that is done is done to bring in His kingdom
It would be nice to teach, and learn history without modern bias.
I want to teach my children from a perspective of history that is not based in antis emotion, which I think sadly, much of history is.
YHWH never changes (Mal. 3:6), and we are told in Deut. not to add or take away from His Word. Torah is the foundation, so I want my children to know it well and live by it to the best of their ability and understanding.
Christine’s book “Story of the Ancient World” is a great introduction to world history. All ages in our family enjoyed listening to it read. The All Through the Ages book list and synopses is the best kept homeschooling secret resource out there!
We have been taught so much junk as far as history. It’s nice to have an option so as not to have to edit as we go.
I want my kids to study history from different view points, but always with a foundation in scripture. history is not black and white and has been convoluted in so many ways.
I think seeing Yahuah’s influence in history is very important. The history and the context is what allows for the understanding and truth of the Scriptures to come through. Before looking at it from a Hebrew perspective, I had some many unanswered questions and found so many contradictions. Once I began to understand the Torah, I was able to understand the New Testament so much better.
Again, I want to learn more about Torah based schooling, so any of these would be a wonderful blessing!
I’ve never used any of Christine’s books, since this is the first I’ve seen of them. But, they look absolutely fascinating. We’ve been learning Torah for a short time now under the tutelage of a widely known Hebrew scholar that has mentored us. He has been teaching us how to integrate cultural, geographical, and language study into our Bible study to bring it alive to us. Learning history from a Hebraic perspective is very important to me now, and having resources to do this with greater ease would be such a blessing to our family. I appreciate you introducing us to these books, and thanks for hosting the giveaway!
I would love to be able to teach my children from a curriculum and books that don’t include Christmas and Easter, with SOS it seems like I spend half my time correcting the history and science texts to bring them in line with the whole Bible.
I think that when you learn history from a Scripture basis it teacher so much more. Textbooks tend to be dry and lifeless. When you learn from the Bible it comes alive and it tends to be unbiased. In the schools today they are always coming out with “new” history books with information changed or even deleted. That doesn’t happen when we learn it from the Scriptures!!
I’m tired of having history books that focus on pagan celebrations and have a typical Christianity slant to them.
So excited to find this site!
I really need something with truth to teach my kids. I don’t like weeding through loads of books and curriculum to find what we need. It would be nice to know I can trust the source of our education.
I have never learned bible history chronologically and I would absolutely LOVE to learn along with my children. It is my heart’s desire to teach them and firmly ground them in Yahweh’s word and having an understanding of bible history would just be a huge blessing!!!
I want our children to go to Torah first for answers. So they have a solid foundation and confidence that the scriptures are the truth on all matters!
Ugg! Antisemitism! Auto correct!
I believe having a Torah and Biblically based education will lay the firmest of foundations. My wish for my sons, is that they would grow up understanding how rich and wonderful Biblical history is and what it shows us about our lives today and in the future.
I am excited to start this homeschooling journey with my eldest and focusing on Torah is what I am looking for.
This is one area that is not my strength and appreciate any recommendations. Especially if it’s biblically accurate. Thanks
Outstanding! Would have loved for these to be around when I homeschooled my children years ago. At least they are now here for my grandchildren!
We are just starting to learn history and it is drenched in Greek mythology and our family wants to know more about yhwh intended for us to know. We are in a paradigm shift
So much of history has been lost, but learning about YHVH’s people and their place in the world is so important.
History is one of my favorite subjects to teach, but digging and dissecting curriculum to sort out fact from fiction gets very challenging. There is only so much time in the day. I want my children to know the truth of History so that they can learn from it and build a better future. Nothing New Press looks like an exciting resource.
I haven’t used Christine’s work before, but I really want to use curriculum that is Torah-based because there’s so much I don’t agree with in “Christian” curriculum.
I haven’t used her materials before but am super excited to see what they include. I’m thrilled that we would have the opportunity to learn together and have a true understanding of History.
In order for our children to be trained up in the way that they should go, it is up to us parents to put the Word before them. We are constantly translating YHWH’s name, and Yeshua’s name from every aspect. I would love to teach my sons from the true Hebrew belief, where we don’t have to skip over traditions of this world; where we are teaching TRUE history, not ever-changing history!
The Torah is the lens through which we should view all of life.. To learn history with this lens would be so much richer, for instance, to watch individuals or societies rise & fall based on whether they’ve chosen the blessings or the curses.
As you learn history from a torah perspective, it let’s you see governments in a new light!
As I discover YAHUA and HIS WORD, I have come to realize that doing HIS will is most important. Sharing HIS love and compassion with others is critical. Obeying TORAH is key because others will learn from what we do. We must bear that fruit of the Spirit. It begins at home with our families and then to the world HE created. We must pass the torch to our next generation.
We all look at life from a perspective/ world view. When that worldview is based on scripture, you are at least looking through the right glasses.
YHVH laid it on my heart in January to homeschool my daughter. YHVH removed my blinders to see His truth May 2012. It has been awesome to have all my questions finally answered in a way that made perfect sense. He is a God of order!!! I want to be faithful to His instruction for us to diligently teach our children His ways. I have not done that until now, finding good curriculum that helps you do this has been difficult and I am very excited to see what you are doing.
I get very tired of editing out the worldy history. It puts the focus on man, and not YHVH.
It would be a blessing to be able to have a curriculum that teaches from a Torah perspective because it helps us provide a better understanding of where everything comes from and where we come from. You can’t know where you are going or who you will be if you don’t know where you came from and who the people in your past were.
The Story of the Greeks & Romans sounds really great. We are looking at teaching around the world and these would help our European studies.

I am learning history, and Torah, right along with my children. It would be wonderful to learn and teach history that I can trust to be accurate, and glorifying to YHVH. Thanks for sharing the knowledge Abba has given you!
I feel like it would be meaningful because there would be so much more to take away from and agree with. I would love to see the events of the world take place complimentary to the timing of HIS Story and HIS people.
I got what I thought was a more Christian based history curriculum this year, but have been really frustrated with how many stories, myths and legends they keep teaching about pagan gods. I thought it would place more emphasis on the Bible, but I was wrong!
Always looking for history books with a biblical perceptive…because their not at the local library!
I would love to teach my children history that is true and accurate, not mingled with half-truths and an agenda that is not from our Father.
Learning history from a Biblical perspective is very difficult with most of the current options that are available, without MAJOR edits which take copious amounts of time. Having a resource that has already done the edits and focusing on His Hand in history frees up a lot of time to concentrate on other areas, be it personal study or advancing His kingdom.
If scripture is to be the basis for our entire lives, how can we approach history through any other lens than the Word? We have come across several “Christian” history texts that start from the concept of millions of years of evolution. It’s very disheartening.
I think this is great even for adults!
I would love to know and share to my children how YHWH has done great and mighty things, that everything that happened is in His purpose and that our History or HIS STORY is His way of telling us how much He had loved us, not just an accidental or random thing.
In the Bible it tells us that He has given us everything for life and Godliness, so if we learn from His perspective then we will have all we need.
These look very interesting and inspiring, a real addition to our spiritual foundation of understanding the World in the light of Biblical history
Refreshing to see History that is Biblically based. Love!!
Love to see Torah based curriculum– focused on Adonai and not man! 🙂
I love learning history but I could never understand it because I was never taught it chronologically. All the events would get jumbled up in my head. Christine Miller starts it out from the beginning of Creation and lays a wonderful solid foundation and builds up from there according to the Bible. Never have I ever had so much fun learning history until now.
Even though I went to Christian schools, History and Bible were 2 separate classes and I never really put them together . . . how the Bible history and the World History textbook fit together, I’m excited to learn it that way, right along with my kids!
Homeschooling my daughters has made me a student of history and made me realize how much of what I was taught in school was false. It would be wonderful to have a trustworthy history book for my daughters as the move into the higher grades.
Without a Scripture-based education, where does that leave our children? I think homeschooling is crucial to raising set-apart children and a Torah-based foundation is really what YHVH desires. Children raised to love Him and keep His ways will be successful and happy!
Having come through the public school system where History was taught from a secular humanism perspective with the emphasis being on memorizing dates, facts, and figures that did not relate to me personally left me sorely lacking when it came to trying to teach my children early on in our homeschooling journey. I remember reading a review for Christine Miller’s All Through the Ages and being thrilled with prospect of being able to supply my children with a chronological biblical view of History in a way that made the facts and figures come alive for my children as they read books that confirmed the truth of Scripture. I have not been able to add Christine’s other titles to our homeschooling library so this would be a great opportunity to experience some of her other materials.
To be able to teach my princesses Torah with games and other creative activities, without trying to weed out the “Christianized” mentality … what a JOY!
Developing a Torah worldview…priceless…
I’m so excited to see that this is available! My son is 7 and loves history (and science), but it’s difficult to find products that teach the truth. I see the affects of the evolutionary and new age teachings that pervade the stories, even with being careful with what he sees/hears and I’m glad to know of more materials that will support teaching him Torah.
We enjoy biblical history, would enjoy these very much. Thanks so much
I grew up in the faith my entire life, but went to public school. It was confusing hearing creation at home and evolution at school. Or reading about the Odyssey and Greek Gods.
Praise Yah I have always been a confident girl and a leader vs the typical follower of the herd.
Now as a new mommy, I can see the importance of teaching our children correctly from the Scriptures and using Torah as a base of HS. Im new to HS, so I haven’t seen much of any curriculum. But excited to hear and see about what Annes experience and ties to other Torah based homeschoolers has to offer and share.
