"I've been praying for a new way to teach my children... something that would focus them on the Bible."

Because we believe that the Bible reveals all of history (past, present and future), it just makes sense to use the Bible as our primary history textbook. In fact, we believe that knowing God’s plan for mankind is essential for our children (in fact, for all people).

But real homeschooling moms wish they could study history with the whole family together. They also want a curriculum that's easy to use, realistic for the budget, and interesting for both children and parents alike.

This is how I felt several years ago, when our family "discovered" that we could use the Bible as the center of our homeschooling — but I had no idea how to actually pull it off in real life.

However, as we studied history and prophecy in Scripture with our children, and as we saw how God is always faithful to His Word, our faith and trust in Him was confirmed. I knew that *this* was the best way to study history and to prepare our children for the future.

My husband and I went to work, outlining the key historical passages of Scripture, reading primary sources, studying timelines, and purchasing multiple curriculum guides. We made lists of some of the best features of existing curriculum — and ways that we felt things might be a little easier for both mom and students.

"Remember the former things, those of long ago;
I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like me.
I make known the end from the beginning,
from ancient times, what is still to come" (Isaiah 46:9-11).

Our goal is to present history, not just as another subject in school, but as an opportunity for your whole family to be thrilled and amazed by God’s Word.

There are MANY good history curriculum on the market, but if you choose to use ours, remember these things:

• The account of creation and the centuries before the flood in Genesis are accurate history. They should be taught to your children as literal, factual, and important.
• The details of the spread of civilization recorded in Genesis 10 are accurate history. Show your children how there are really just two religions: the worship of the Creator and the worship of the creation. (From Genesis 10-11, you can teach all world cultures, geography, world religions, and more.)
• Studying the Old Testament should be a priority over all other sources of ancient history. When dates disagree with God’s Word, dig in and find out why. Show your children tangible evidence why the Bible can be trusted.

The Foundations of World History curriculum is intended primarily for grades 4-8, but it can easily be adapted for all ages.

• Younger children enjoy just listening, and believe me, they pick up much more than we realize! They also enjoy memorizing, coloring maps, and making simple notebooking pages.
• High school students are ready to discuss and interact with many topics on a much deeper level than younger students, so we've scheduled additional reading and research assignments that will draw you closer in deep discussions.

As adults, stick some of the additional books beside your bed, so you can be reading them, too. You’ll start seeing the God’s hand everywhere!
